12 Things You Didn't Know You Could Do With Your PS4

1. Type With The Dualshock 4 Gyro

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oe2byYvKTK8 Typing with a controller, as a general rule, sucks. Flicking through a QWERTY keyboard using an analog stick is painfully slow, and completely unintuitive. In one of the best hidden features on the PlayStation 4, it's possible to make use of a unique system to type out messages. While using the on-screen keyboard, if you click the right stick then a small circle will appear. You can move this circle using the sixaxis gyro inside your Dualshock 4, in order to select different keys far quicker. It takes a bit of getting used to, but once you've mastered the system, it's a surprisingly fast way to type with. Sony have also recently added the ability to do a similar thing, but with the controller's touch screen instead. What's your favourite PlayStation 4 tip? Are there any we missed out?
