  • furtwan1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1No console will use it. Immersion primarily made this to show that Sony is full of ***** when they say that rumble interferes with tilt sensing. Sony is dropping rumble support because it violated Immersions patents and doesn't want to pay up (like Nintendo and MS did).

    Summary: Sony is a greedy, lying, manipulative company.
  • hackwrench, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Good stuff as opposed to other developments... Now what games will support the tech on which platforms. Are we going to have to buy 3rd party controllers to get the gameplay we really want?

    I wish they'd merge with http://www.synaptics.com/ though.
