You know that means you will have to buy new said controller which six axis were bought 40 dollars, or was it 60, which would make these new rumble controllers how much?

Well I think Metal Gear Solid was one of the few games to use rumble for
in a way that it increased to the immersion all other games used it as a tag on
and as tag on, I have long forgotten its wonder.

If Kojima says MGS4 with rumble that would be a major selling point as specially with his words about Mr. Rumble I wouldn't want Mr. Rumble to cry...

No one wants Mr. Rumble to cry...

*If Mr. Rumble doesn't make sense its a joke Kojima used previosly so dont be angry if it doesn't click. *

i've been patient and have not bought any new controllers pending the announcement which we all knew was coming on rumble... so this will not be a kick in the balls for me...

Ditto. I've been holding off for the same reason. That's why I went out and bought a PS2 to PS3 controller adapter soon after I got my PS3.

Like some people I really was annoyed with Rumble, I think the only reason why people want it is simply cause it isn't there anymore so people are like "Hey,why no rumble"? Least now that it does,maybe most of the annoying threads won't be about rumble anymore.I wanna play my game,not hold a chick's vibrator.

I think this is great news and I'm also happy that it increases the weight of the controller for a more sturdy feel.

Tokyo Game Show 07: The Dual Shock 3
Sony unveils force-feedback PS3 controller. How does it feel?
By Staff, Gamespot

http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/...shock-3/531286

TOKYO--Following widespread rumors and leaks, today Sony Computer Entertainment president Kaz Hirai unveiled the Dual Shock 3 controller for the PlayStation 3. As had been widely rumored, the controller will feature the same rumble technology Sony had initially dismissed as "last-gen" when the tilt-sensitive Sixaxis was first shown off in 2006. Its announcement comes six months after Sony and Immersion Corporation agreed to cooperate after a lengthy--and costly--legal battle over the Dual Shock 2's force-feedback-tech.

The good news is that, despite some confusion, the Dual Shock 3 will feature both rumble and the tilt-sensing functionality. The bad news is, when it goes on sale in Japan in November and in North America and Europe in early 2008, it will be sold separately from the PlayStation 3. Gamers whose memories stretch back to the mid-1990s will remember Sony applied a similar strategy when introducing the original Dual Shock following the release of the original PlayStation. From day one, though, the PlayStation 2 came equipped with a Dual Shock 2 controller.


As of press time, Sony had not revealed pricing for the Dual Shock 3 in any territory. However, one thing Sony was forthcoming about was the list of PS3 games which will support force feedback. Dozens of games are already compatible with the controller weeks before the peripheral hits the market, with many more being supported via software updates from the PlayStation Network. (A full list of the games can be found at the bottom of this article.)

Immediately following Harai's TGS keynote address, new signs started appearing around several different game stations at Sony's TGS booth to indicate stations equipped with the Dual Shock 3 controller. The Ratchet and Clank and Metal Gear Solid 4 stations were just some of the kiosks featuring the telltale black-and-white controller image with radiating motion lines.

The most noticeable thing about the controller is its weight, since the rotor-less Sixaxis always felt a little light. On the other hand, the Dual Shock 3 has a comforting amount of heft, feeling much like the highly prized Dual Shock 2.

The Dual Shock 3's rumble was a touch weak, but stuck close to PlayStation 2's force feedback. The prototype version of the controller at Sony's booth lacked any distinctive markings, looking just like a standard Sixaxis with a "Dual Shock 3" decal on the front.

Sounds like I'll be charging the controllers 10 times as much for a distraction while playing... most likely passing on this one.

[Shin-Ra]

They're not going to add rumble and use the same battery, comeon.
