[quote name='seanmcc']Then don't spend any money, you don't NEED rumble do you? Not to mention when SIXAXIS came out, they still hadn't settled with Immersion in the rumble lawsuit.
A lot of games have rumble, Uncharted, Ratchet, GT5 Prologue, DMC4, + more.[/quote]
Don't bother trying to defend Sony; they're indefnsible on all of this.
First, they used Immersion's tech without permission and refused to admit it. Then, when the PS3 launched, they LIED about the reson why they left out rumble (they claimed that it was impossible to impliment both rumble and tilt controls, and that rumble was "last gen".) And finally, when then unvieled the DS3, they made a big show of the fact that they were amazing because their engineers had found a way to "do the impossible" and impliment rumble and tilt together.
Yes, we all know exactly what happened, and how it was all a matter of the lawsuit with Immersion, but a) they refused to admit that to the public, and b) they released an incomplete product to the public, and are entirely unapologetic for it.
If they were going to replace all existing controllers with DS3s, I would aplaud them, but making me go buy a replacement controller in order to get a feature that was standardize two generations ago really is inexcusable.
