Immersion is only wrong if they signed an exclusive agreement... If they didn't, than they can sell the rumble feature to whomever they choose

Is that not what this is about?

Heres what Immersion has to say about that.

Immersion believes that it is not obligated under the sublicense agreement with Microsoft to make any payment to Microsoft relating to the conclusion of its litigation with Sony Computer Entertainment. Immersion intends to defend this lawsuit vigorously.

Whatever happens, I think they will still end up with the rumble.

[theknub]

in honesty, i couldn't see immersion offering exclusive rumble support. they're just doing what they always do. sue someone and try and block something for as long as possible.

Heres the link to Immersions website talking about this.

If the agreement MS paid for doesn't allow this, then how are they being a "Big Baby". The agreement needs to be honored. I guess no one would have a problem if their mortgage company went against a signed document and doubled your interest reat even though it was supposed to be fixed. You would want them to honor the agreement.
