Gaming can be an expensive hobby. If it’s not the consoles, then it’s the PC components. Then you have the prices for games, subscriptions, regret-filled Steam Sale binging and of course, accessories. Fortunately, if you don’t want to go completely broke, there are plenty of reliable choices under $20. Let’s take a look at 10 of them here (as per their current Amazon prices).

Perlegear 4 Pack High Speed HDMI Cables – $7.99

You never know the importance of HDMI cables until you have multiple consoles to manage. So on top of getting an HDMI switcher, multiple cables are ideal. That’s where Perlegear’s pack comes into play. It comes with four HDMI 2.0 cables that are six feet in length with cable ties to keep things neatly organized. The gold-plated material allows for increased durability and lifespan, not to mention that “premium” feel. For $7.99, you could do a lot worse but Perlegear offers a lot of value all the same.

The Wave Blue edition of the DualShock 4 was revealed by Sony for the PlayStation 4 during Gamescom 2013. If that weren’t enough, we also saw different colour schemes for the controller, a charger for the controller and a stand for hoisting the console up. Check it out below.

Sony had a rather good Gamescom press conference, showcasing various exclusives – though most of them being indies – and different titles for the PlayStation Vita. It also announced that the PlayStation 4 would be launching in North America on November 15th and in Europe on November 29th, with a release in 32 countries.

Considering that the Xbox One will be releasing in only 13 countries this year, with an additional 8 countries seeing the console in early 2014, the PS4 definitely has the advantage.

Check out our review of the conference here. You can also see what we thought of the Microsoft Gamescom 2013 press conference (which we rated lower, mind you) here.

Xbox One Controller to Last 10 Years

According to Microsoft’s Accessories and Hardware Manager Bob Brown the Xbox One controller will last for at least 10 years.

The controller has been thoroughly tested multiple times with different types of abuse over and over again. This is what Bob Brown has said regarding the controller testing: “each button gets pressed over and over, between 4-5 times a second,” while the “thumbsticks are also tested with repeated use,” he said to Pocket-Limit.

This is an interesting piece of information that Microsoft has released, I personally never heard of anyone talking about accessories testing and their projected lifespan. Considering that the controller is tested for 10 years of functionality it would be safe to assume that the Xbox One planned to be supported for at least 10 years of software.

Sony has stated multiple times that the PlayStation 3 was also built/supported for at least at least 10 years. Now this brings up the question of the PlayStation 4, hopefully we will find out sometime soon.
