There is no rumble support for the PS3.

Sony did not copy Nintendo when it comes to the rumble feature. Get your facts straight before you post anything.

This is the story about how Sony decided not to go with the rumble feature on the PS3 controller.

A few years ago, Immersion (company that owns the copyright to the rumble technology) sued MS and Sony for stealing the rumble technology. The court ruled in favor of Immersion. MS decided to settle and bought a share in the company, so that's why the 360 still has the rumble technology. Sony, on the other hand, is still appealing the verdict. So, if Sony were to include the rumble in the PS3, it could end up losing a lot more money due to royalties, so Sony decided not to use it, just in case it loses its appeal. Sony denied this reason, instead stating that the rumble would interfere with the Sixaxis. Immersion said that it would work with Sony to make the rumble compatible with the Sixaxis if Sony agrees to drop the appeal, pay the royalties from the PS2, and give further royalties from the sale of the PS3 controller.
