The controller to be fair is personal preference This may have been true for last gen also but this gen not so much. The controllers now are fairly similar.

Con of controller on Xbox - you have to buy charging less if you buy the power back, batteries or whatever to constantly change the batteries which are awkward to get in… ps you just plug in to charge

Con of PS5 - it is big 😂

Con of Xbox - exclusives are piss poor imo and not one Xbox exclusive has ever won game of the year. They might win awards but not specifically game of the year. Many ps exclusives have

Con of ps5 - the library is extensive and can make this hard to choose and for the full package it is slightly more expensive than Xbox but not by much

Replaceable batteries are a big advantage of XBox controllers. If you have kids, you have AA akkus anyway. 2 sets of these means only a few seconds break to change them if they go out, no cables ever. Plus when they die you just get new akkus, not a new gamepad.

But majority of people buy the rechargeable batteries and it’s not eco friendly to use those batteries as you go through loads. You literally use the cable to charge and that’s it… you get two controllers with the ps you get 1 with Xbox 🤷‍♀️ literally every Xbox owner I know has this same gripe. Bit weird if you take the batteries from kids toys to sort your own toy out as it’s selfish 🤷‍♀️ buy a battery grenade at least so you avoid that. If the controller is your only thing then you need to actually ask yourself why you game as there’s a lot more than just a controller

What? What loads??? Rechargeable nimh die like once every 4 years. So in fact it's super eco friendly, unlike dumping whole ps controllers.
