But then we will all have to buy another controller just for rumble, and The battery will die faster. But hell, I wont say no to it!

Bet you game stores are gonna have a " trade in Sixaxis, get SIXShock $40 off" or something like that.

As Nick Nailor said " That' s the beauty of argument, because if you argue correctly, you' re never wrong" .

Brilliant movie BTW.

i' d expect more advanced rumble than what' s used in 360 and Wii' s controllers.

They' d have to pass up Wii' s rumble. It wasn' t rumble, so much as a small mechanical burp. I think I get a worse buzz from the internal speaker.

lol, thats exactly what I thought. It has struck me as sort of funny, that all it took was a bit of a buzz from the wii-mote to ensure it wasn' t criticized like the sixaxis for a lack of rumble. " Force-Feedback" doesnt really suit it. " Feather Feedback" seems more suitable, and then they could still label it as a FF controller.

" Microsoft' s Achievements were a work of genius, we' re not only matching it but we' re giving you somewhere virtual [like a customizable room] to store and view them, ...and you can even visit your friends virtual rooms too! Probably"

Doesnt MS already let you see your friends achievment points? ... and what does probably mean? Does that mean if they feel like it or something?

These aren' t actual quotes as far as I know. He is doing what I did and making hypothetical quotes that we feel could be close to what will be announced, or what should be announced.

The biggest giveaway to me is in the quote " Microsoft' s Achievements were a work of genius" . I can' t see Sony saying that, or even microsoft for that matter..

It' s the thought that counts. As long as fans can safely say they' ve got a feature, no matter how awful, they think they' ve got an advantage. Although, personally, I' d rather they waited on rumble for a half-a-year like Sony, & then release something great. (crosses fingers)

Rumble in the Sixaxis controllers = bad.

Rumble sucks alot of power... and since you can' t replace the Sixaxis battery, this would lead to faster depletion of the battery and as a result, faster diminishing of the battery' s ability to hold a charge.

If they do include rumble in Sixaxis, they also need to redesign it with a replacable battery so you just have to buy a new battery once the battery can' t hold a charge anymore, rather than a new controller.

great idea... if their controllers die, than they have to get another meaning... more money for sony mwahahahaha

I' d rather they went back to the original PS3 controller concept. I really liked it.

Yep.

I think it would have been cool. It was smaller than much of the promo material made it look...

it looks kinda like it would cripple your hands

Yeah I could See that happing lol

That old ps3 controller was way too small, look at the size of the analog sticks, that would never work.

At least they tried something new, but everybody hated it. I would like it If they did more for the ps3 pad apart from the motion senseing.. [and now rumble]

Yes, Rumble+Sixaxis=bad. But not for the reason you think. Rumble would cause hella(Im bringing this word back ) interference with sixaxis. Im not quite sure where I read that, or if it was Sony or a Dev who said it, but it was said and makes logical sense.

are you talking about the boomerang controller?

Actually that controller design makes me believe that they had motion sensitivity in mind from the outset. Obviously it would be a lot easier to use that as a steering wheel or flight yoke than the Sixaxis or the rectangular Wii wonder wand. It also looks a lot more ergonomically comfortable than the outdated Sixaxis design.

I don' t think it looks more ergonomic at all. Maybe it' s more comfortable to hold but reaching the shoulder buttons along with circle amd triangle looks difficult.

Thats what I thought. I could see some advantages to it, but I think on a whole, it would be a worse design.

in the year 2030, the leading cause of authoritus is the ps3 controller from 2007

So far, the Wii-mote wears out my hands the most of any controller to date. It' s so small that you have to wrap your fingers around it completely. I imagine it might be easier if you had small hands, but I don' t, and my fingers cramp up
