What did I tell you people? Granted, the tech doesn't sound like it's near as advanced as the Revo controller (check out IGN, they have a thing on it), so it's not too big of a deal. Honestly, Sony's version of it doesn't sound that great, and from what I heard, it glitched during the demo too... woops.
Will Sony throw away their dignity...

It did. The guy was playing Warhawk, moving the controller around, shooting, flying...and then the plane just sort of levels out, and doesn't move anymore. While the developer is up on stage twisting and turning the controller. It doesn't do anything, and smacks into the mountain. So he just lays the controller down, seeming anxious to get off stage.
I'm sure that was a bit of embarrassment.

OWNED! :laughing: A Bit of an embarrasment? That must have been quite the embarrasment!

The Dualshock controller is too small for my hands. The 360's controller is just the right size. Why can't we have companies make controllers in more than 1 size, so they would fit everyone's hands?
Note BTW that the PS3's controller won't have rumble functionality.
They say the rumble function caused carpal tunnel syndrome in kids anyway didn't they? I have to say the rumble function is not important to me at all. I argee with you on the controller though Cloral. They think that 1 controller size/design fits all. What a shame.
I wonder if Wii will get any traditional game ports to play with that "Classic" Controller. It looks neat but my main issue with it is how are you supposed to play N64 titles with that? The stick for C buttons? Ya... that'll work craptacular for Ki Gold, Mortal Kombat, and many other games. But we will see won't we.

Funny you say that...me and my manager at work was talking about that exact same thing just a few hours ago. But that controller sure brings back memories. Speaking of that, did anyone see the Zapper?

I wonder if that's because of that lawsuit Sony had filed against them?
I'm sure it is. They combined together every other technology from the other companies they could get their hands on. That's the only reason why they wouldn't use that.
Yeah, the whole rumble thing isn't important to me, either. I use a wavebird on my GCN. 😃
I don't have rumble on my PS2, since it's a chipped slim-line model. I don't miss it that much, so it's not that big a deal.
Still, Sony = Theives!!!11one
Since this was dug up, I'd prefer no force feedback on the controller. It's a distraction more than an immersion.

All I care about is the death of Sony. Not only do they make crappy consoles and steal controller ideas, but they also make horrible DVD players and sound systems, as well as sign awful music artists and produce crappy music.
They are just another example of a brand name taking advantage of its own name and becoming incompetent.
DIE SONY DIE.
uhh... yeah, i hate sony too... i mean... they steal every idea, and make it look like they made it up in the first place... thanks for making this thread, it made me relieve some of my anger...
