      If you're using VR, you won't be able to see it reflecting?

        Yeah, probably. I don't have a VR headset so I'm not sure. Just turn the brightness on it back up when you want to use the headset. Presumably you won't be able to see your TV then anyway.

          I believe in vr mode it automatically turns it back to max

            It should do this automatically! There's literally no reason for there to be a light on it except when it's being tracked. It might look cool... to someone else watching you play from the other side of the room!

              It is used by a few games, changing colour by scene or to show your health etc, and it’s also the indicator of which player is which in multiplayer for all local multi games. So there are some other uses for it - it’s just poorly thought out.

                If you don't use the DS4 for VR or anything needing the light, get some black electrical tape and cover the light. If you are artistic enough you can make the tape blend in pretty well with the DS4 and never know.

                  Yeah, would agree it's annoying at times but it's easily covered. There's folks doing custom designed ones over on eBay too - my ex used to complain about me using her controller, so we ended up with this as a solution

I'm trying to play Resi 2 in the dark, and the sodding thing is illuminating half the room, or else casting a giant glaring reflection on the tv screen. Wow, how's that for immersion. What in god's name were they thinking.
                    Stop using a CRT, then.

                      At least you can navigate the internet with your other hand efficiently.

                        The NHK guy buzzed our place last night while I was perusing the Hub before my shower. 9:30pm. I told him I don't have a TV and he left. Took me a while to get going after that.

                          Driving uphill long enough in snow and ice in a car that you discover is not suited to it, long enough for the car to fill with the burning smell of clutch.

                            I think "perusing the hub" is subtle enough a euphemism that you could actually get away with it in polite conversation without people even twigging. You filthy animal.

                                I'm a little worried about the kind of Pavlovian reaction you're aiming for here.
