RetroSpy Live Controller Viewer App for PlayStation Consoles & More!
Proceeding the DS4 Controller Steam Setup PS4 Guide and the Gamepad Debugger for DualShock 4 & DualSense PS5 Controllers, earlier this year zoggins (Twitter) of Retro-Spy.com updated his open source Live Controller Viewer application Github fork to RetroSpy v5.0.4 that currently supports a wide variety of console generations including Sony's original PlayStation, PS2, PS3, PS4 and PlayStation Classic Mini (FAQ / Teardown / PS Classic Hacked) systems. 
RetroSpy is based on NintendoSpy which is originally by jaburns and used to display controller inputs on streams, for speedrunning validation, game tutorials and more.
It can convert controller presses into keystrokes to control programs like LiveSplit and OBS on a computer, for a split timer, broadcasting software or any other application that uses a keyboard shortcut.

Return to Monkey Island Point-And-Click Adventure Game Coming in 2022
Before the Console Scene boom, many (myself included with @CyB1K and @softstar) sat in front of our IBM's (back then I had a 386SX) after a weekly trip to Babbages, Electronics Boutique (aka EB Games) or Software Etc in the mall to snag the latest point-and-click adventure games... among my personal favorites are Maniac Mansion, Zak McKracken and the Alien Mindbenders, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade: The Graphic Adventure, Leisure Suit Larry, King's Quest and of course the Monkey Island series! 
Those who remember Cassingles may also recall LucasArts Entertainment early copy-protection in the form of cardboard Interactive Code Wheels included in each game box used to verify your copy was genuine before joining in Guybrush Threepwood's latest adventure.
Fast-forward 30+ years (has it really been that long, it feels just like yesterday
), and Lucasfilm Games just announced via this thing called 'social media' on the Internet a new game by Ron Gilbert dubbed Return to Monkey Island arriving later this year for grog lovers all over in 2022!
While details on Return to Monkey Island are sparse at the moment with no word on a PlayStation 4 version like the Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don't Dry reboot, according to Wikipedia to quote:
Return to Monkey Island is the sixth installment overall, a joint collaboration...
