PS3 Rumble Controller Confirmed

IGN was playing a build of the upcoming title Burnout: Paradise when they noticed something new about the controller in their hands: it was shaking. The rumble-equipped PlayStation 3 controller is almost certainly a reality at this point, with Kaz Harai's keynote tomorrow expected to officially announce the product. "The controller we were using to play the demo looked exactly like a standard Sixaxis, except that it had a sticker on the bottom that said 'RUMBLE.' It also felt notably heavier than the standard Sixaxis."

    Blasphemy.

    I left out Ninja Gaiden 2 in my list in a post a little above yours.

    I have shamed my family.

    Way to go. What a zinger! You really zinged them.

    That will teach them to try to promote their choices as the best ones. They won't try that again.

    I look forward to the future of marketing slogans you've created. "It's only as good as it is", "We like it, but you should make up your own mind", "Adequate. At least for us.", and so on.

    No more hype ever. Not for us. Someone on the net might have a counterpoint, after all.

    (This post makes me feel British.)

    But my favorite part of first-person shooters are the parts where you fight your way back through areas you were already in to extend the playtime. I especially appreciate it when they strip you of all your weapons first.

    BTW, Doom 3 is my favorite game ever.

    The sun will come up tomorrow.

    This can't be 100% confirmed, but still, I will guarantee you it is going to happen.
