I'm most disappointed with the boomerang being gone.

Me 3.

I'll post what I posted earlier

Wouldn't it be funny if Nintendo suddenly said "hahah, that was our fake secret controller, that idea was destined for failure" and then they go back to copying the dual shock controller.

I wonder if Sony would follow Nintendo? Most likely.

If anything what Sony have done with their controller shows that they are concerned with Nintendo being in this generation gaming and they will try anything to stop them....this is where they may lose out. They shoulda stuck with the original banana controller.

i doubt the boomerang controller woulda had rumble in it either.

im pretty sure rumble was NOT taken out for the motion sensing, i think motion sensing was put in to hide the missing rumble because of the lawsuit.

Please explain the lawsuit to me...... between who was that?

Originally I was really excited about the PS3, but after that press conference I feel kinda bummed. They were meandering all over the place and it wasn't clear what they were trying to accomplish. Hopefully things will pick up as E3 continues and we see the playable demos.

i foget the companties name... immersion? something like that.. sued both MS and Sony saying they used thier force feedback technology in thier controllers.

MS had the smarts to settle outta court.
Sony had the balls to fight it.

MS settled and payed them i dont know how much, plus licensing fees for using it. Sony Lost, appealed. and i believe lost the appeal.

yep...looks like crap

I think I prefer to game 'rumbleless'. When it's a game that requires acute timing and reflex, rumble just messes me up and makes it more difficult. It's not that realistic anyways, at least not on the Gamecube.

It doesn't matter anyway, Sony can't undo screwing themselves over now. They've branded the PS3 as the over-priced system that's attempted to rip-off features from the other two systems at the last minute in an effort to succeed. Unfortunately, that kind of underhanded **** doesn't wash with the gaming community.

I had a WaveBird for cube but I always prefered the standard controller for the rumble. Hard to go back to a rumbleless world.
