Speaking from personal experience, I am fucking FURIOUS that the PS5 won't let you play any PS5 games with the PS4 controller that will otherwise happily sync up with the PS5. Apart from the haptics, there's no meaningful difference, and you can't tell me those are essential. Hell, I can imagine cases in which a person might want to turn them off!

What if the game they want to play doesn't support split screen?

Then we ask them politely, yet firmly to leave.

So they can go home and get their PS5? Good plan.
