Games Thirst – Amazing Life
You won’t be able to turn off the lightbar on PlayStation 4′s DualShock 4, Sony Worldwide Studios boss Shuhei Yoshida has made known via twitter.
When quizzed about the feature, Yoshida responded with a simple “no”.
In addition to working in conjunction with the PS4′s camera to determine the controller’s position in 3D space, the lightbar can be used to enhance the game experience – an example is Killzone: Shadow Fall which uses the lightbar to display player health.
There doesn’t seem to be a problem with the lightbar staying on at all, but some have raised the idea of battery life being drained, or the light being reflected on television screens, potentially obstructing gaming sessions which, I must say, still doesn’t make that much sense either.
