5 Best Practices for Smartphone Support
It all depends on whether or not the games still have force feedback coding within, for if they don’t, a force feedback controller will be useless. That said, if a force feedback controller does become available, games manufacturers could always write a patch which gamers could download to enable the rumble in games if it was taken out of PS3 versions. The SIXAXIS motion system works, and does add a new element to games that does make sense. It isn’t a full replacement for the lack of rumble – the Wii has both after all – but at least Sony can claim they have this too, blunting the Wii’s marketing push a little in this regard. Of course the PS3 itself looks like a true 21st century device, all shiny and black. It’s also a fingerprint magnet too, so you’ll want a cleaning cloth handy to wipe away those prints from time to time. We only had a couple of hours of gameplay, which is not enough to give a final verdict, and the playtime was shared amongst a range of journalists, but the general impression everyone had was that this is an amazing console, and a real challenger to the Xbox 360 and Nintendo Wii. Microsoft and Nintendo have a real fight on their hands, but gamers love this stuff: we wouldn’t have it any other way. Bring it on, FIGHT! {moscomment} |
