List of PS3 Titles Compatible With Rumble Controller

Kotaku has a list of PlayStation 3 titles compatible with the new rumble-enabled controller just announced this week at TGS. Most of the upcoming high profile titles for the console are on the list, and several already-released games will apparently become compatible with a quick software update. Some highlights from the list: "The Darkness, Devil May Cry 4, Turok, Kane & Lynch: Dead Men, Burnout Paradise, RAGE, METAL GEAR SOLID 4 GUNS OF THE PATRIOTS, Condemned, Folklore, Heavenly Sword, Ratchet & Clank Future: Tools of Destruction, Resistance: Fall of Man SOCOM: Confrontation, Uncharted: Drake's Fortune, Warhawk"

    I thought rumble was supposed to be a last-gen technology fad. Why is Resistance: Fall of Man, the PS3's best first-gen/launch title getting a retroactive modification?

    I was an early adopter of the PS3 solely because of Sony's track record of backwards compatibility consistently getting worse as new versions of a particular console come out; I wanted to be sure to get the PS3 model that would play most (if not all) of my PS2 and PS1 library, and I have yet to actually play (let alone spend money on) a PS3 game. And the list of games here isn't going to change that for me as far as I can tell: I'm not going to speak for others, but there's nothing interesting for me in that list.

    I'm looking forward to the new rumble controller for backwards compatibility, nothing else. I suppose, in that way, rumble really is a "last-gen" feature, as least on Sony platforms.

    Now if only some new update will fix the sound flubs in Final Fantasy XI (or if S-E would release a PS3 client of the game).

    "what company doesnt lie on a constant basis?"

    Obviously Sony has done it a lot more 'constantly' than the other two this time around, their PR tanked.

    "1. They made a console you dont like. ...."

    This is why you don't understand what all the 'bashing' is about. You don't have a clue what's been going on. You actually think that one morning I woke up and thought "Hmm.. it'd be fashionable for me to hate Sony today for no reason." As near as I can figure, you've been avoiding even the most mainstream video game news over the last 18 months. Now, it may sound like I'm just being dismissive of what you're saying. Well, sorry, but if you really want to kick people in the butt to re-evaluate the PS3 you're not going to get anywhere by saying "I don't understand what all the fuss is about, you're just a fanboy." The PS3 had a lot of positive momentum going for it until E3 '06. That's when they first shot themselves in the foot. Maybe you'd like to browse through the news archives and see what all the fuss was about?

    "I hardly see how this is worthy of all the bashing and crap they get on slashdot. Im not a fanboy but i can see customer attitude is starting to affect console makers and having a large impact on sales. I want more people buying ps3's so i can get some goddman games. i dont want it to turn into the dreamcast of this generation, minus the the good games. Im not going to start arguing pro ps3 but you cnat deny its a great piece of hardware, its not a piece of crap."

    I agree with you that the hardware has some impressive graphical power. Throw lots of money at it, and sure, you can make the numbers of the specs go up.

    "Its sounds old, but i cant even list the amount of things microsoft has done in the past year that are far worse than that. Why arent we out bashing them, boycotting their products and givign them a hard time, i mean they pretty much MAKE people buy their crap, and it IS crap. i know some of us do."

    That's something else you should look into. Despite the silliness surrounding Microsoft and the XBOX 360 (i.e. Defective units...), they've still made an interesting and affordable game machine.

    "Anyway i just dotn see why you feel the need to bash them so much when theres so many companies out there that are far worse. they made the ps3, made some design mistakes, and had a ceo who said some stupid things."

    As I said, you're not seeing all of the saga surrounding Sony. You should look into that. As for bashing, I'd hardly call my post bashing. You're not going to get anywhere on this topic if you run around to people who have a different opinion from you and say "You're just bashing". I could accuse you of being the exact opposite, you know. "You'll let Sony do whatever they want and you'll cheer them on." You wouldn't care much for me saying that, right? Whatever. Go do a little research before taking potshots at people.
