Shadowblade said:Oh and the Controller WON'T have rumble, Sony confirmed that, saying that Rumble will put off the feature that will sense the motion of the controller....

LOL
Sony should stop being a pack of liars and just tell the truth about why it doens't have rumble.
But it's ok I will reveal to you the real reason. Sony and Microsoft both got sued, not by Nintendo but by another company that had patented the rights to use the rumble technology in the Dual Shock and Xbox controlelrs (Nintendo used a diffrent method it seems.) Microsoft apologised and settled the dispute, agreeing to pay this company a small sum for every controller sold.

Sony did not settle, they were taken to court. And lost.

Sony dont have the RIGHT to use rumble anymore.

The whole idea that it messes with the motion sensing is OBVIOUSLY bullshit since the Wii ontroller has a far more advanced motion sensor AND has rumble.

I think Bundy mentioned how symetrical analogue sticks was BETTER or some garbage like that? he cited games using both sticks are more confortale. Now tell me which games even use both sticks? None, only a few shooters. And do you see Xbox owners complaining about their non symetriocal setupfor Halo? no.

well the PS3 controler has no shock to make it so you can use the motion senseing. There are better R & L buttons. People DO STILL use the D-Pad. The Anolouge sticks PWN the XBOX360s. The controlers are blue tooth (i'm pretty sure). There is keyboard and mouse support for games like unreal tourney 2006. There is none on the 360. Clearly the PS3 is better. Also the PS3s menu (like the PSP's) is much cooler than the 360s. The PSP is also compatible with PS2 and PS3. So why even go near the 360?

EDIT##: not having rumble makes the controler lighter and more to the shape of your hand. I also think that not having rumble might be better for the controller.

Right you are skyrider123!!!!!!!!!!
But apparently the ps3 can not hold mp3's or video's like the 360(via menu, hard drive not Disc) can so who cares about a keyboard and mouse why dont ya hop on ya PC ( but once again your own preference comes into play if you like ps3 and think it Pwns PS3 get that ok!

THE MENU GUYS...LOOK AT THE MENU! COOOOOOOOOL! Pure, simple, stupid, fanboyness. Last time i checked i could upload songs and pictures to my 360 from my psp... but see little insignificant things like compatibility with a handheld dont bother me... I'll still be playing Halo 3 even if there isn't a handheld component to the game... and its good to see Sony taking a page from Nintendo who came up with the handheld to console system first, its also good to see Sony take a page from Microsoft with their online capabilities... i wonder if they will have an online marketplace?

Getting back on topic

I think the new technology deployed on this controller will be great, even if it is at the sacrafice of rumbler


One article puts it like this

In addition to the “3-posture-axis” of roll, pitch and yaw, “3-dimension acceleration information (X, Y, and Z)” can be detected in high-precision and in real-time. In addition to standard key input available in existing controllers, more natural and more intuitive play will become possible as if the controller has become part of your body.


.
In other words, if in a flight sim, you want to bank and roll to the left, you would make the same motion asd you would on a real flight controller.

Its sure better than trying to initiate the same manouver with the D-pad or toggles. It makes them rather outdated really.

Guys I'm not even lying. Sony LOST A CAUGHT CASE over rumble. They ARN'T ALLOWED to use it.

In fact I'm pretty sure Nintendo are in the process of preparing to sue them over the tilt sensor as well. Those of you who are impressed by at should take a look at what Nintendo have cooking. PS3 has nothing on it.

Rab: Many games use both analogue sticks... Most FPS, and GTA (and most important in my fave games, Timesplitters) ... I only wish the darn PSP had a second analogue stick...

Se7en: If guys want to argue about what console is better, who cares, it's a part of life, and even though everyones arguing, deep down they're having fun doing it... You don't need to leave the site to avoid it, just avoid PS3 or 360 threads...

yeah i guess.

back to the topic of the thread though, the controller
im kind of dissapointed that they didnt go with the boomerang, but i guess we know that the dual shock works. im impressed with the tilting stuff, i didnt see it coming, i like it how its still a traditional controller with the tilting technology, i personally dont like what nintendo is doing with the remote, but its darn interesting thats for sure! im heaps interested in seeing that day of destruction or whatever its called on Wii, with that massive tidal wave.

Bundy and untoldlegend spot on I agree. Some people take things to seriously Its all a bit of fun. I could say for example vegemite=crap its my opinion, Im titled to that. Everyone on this site deserves their opinion said.Amin are there if it gets out of hand, anyway back to the controller its a bit dissapointing to leave out rumble but won't miss it much.

Why am I not surprised?
This is a true piece of shite for people who dont know any better.
As for the c0cktard who started this thread - shut up you NAZI scum, who the hell are you to say I cant compare it to a 360 controller?

I will compare it to the N64 one then - that PWNS all over my PS & PS2 controller anyday.

Have you guys checked out the vid of the PS3 freezing while playing sonic the craphog at E3? - thats awesome
