When i finally buy a PS3,will th wireless control pad have a vibration function ?

Question

I love survival/horror like Res.Evil and Silent Hill and think th vibration feedback really adds to th experience,but not sure if Sony`s new peripherals will support this,and if not, why not ?

Answer 1

No. The Sixaxis will not have the Dual Shock because 1. Sony lost their lawsuit against Immersion, which owns the patents to the vibration function. So, if Sony adds the vibration, it will have to pay Immersion a lot of money for every Sixaxis with Dual Shock sold in addition to the PSX/PS2 Dual Shocks that have been sold. 2. Sony said that the Dual Shock will interfere with the Sixaxis motion sensor but Immersion has said that if Sony withdraws its appeal, Immersion will work with Sony so that the vibration doesn't interfere with the motion sensor. 3. MS and Immersion settled their lawsuit, and then MS went on to buy a small share of Immersion, so for every Sixaxis with Dual Shock, Sony would be helping MS to make money. I think this is the sticking point as to why Sony will not include Dual Shock in the Sixaxis. Why would Sony help its competitor make money.

Answer 2

This is really simple and believe it or not it is not a scam! This is the latest in consumer marketing technique.

If you are like me and assumed that you get nothing in life for free then you are correct, however this is not a con. To prove this I have put a Realplayer link at the bottom of the page linking to the BBC website where they featured a similar offer to this one.

Follow these steps to get yourself a free Nintendo Wii, all it will take is a little bit of time and effort.

This is 100% legitimate, you will not have to sell your soul or anything (you only have to do that if you want a PS3!!!)



STEP 1: Go to the address below (copy and paste):

STEP 2: Register on the above website, this costs nothing and you don't even have to go on after this if you don't want to. You can also tick a button to keep your email address discreet so that you are not inundated with spam.


STEP 3: Now you get a number of offers from different companies. You need to choose one of the offers and complete the criteria. Below I have listed one of the offers, but there are others you can choose from. The beauty of this offer (which is the one I signed up for) is that it doesn't actually cost you anything as you are free to cancel after the free trial as you will have already fulfilled your obligation:

* ScreenSelect has recently merged with LOVEFiLM to create Europe's largest online DVD rental service. Now trading under the LOVEFiLM brand name, an already exceptional service has just got even better. Stocking every UK DVD - a staggering 60,000+ from new releases to TV boxsets, Music, comedy and more. DVDs are sent and returned by prepaid 1st class post and there are no late fees - ever. Sign-up for a no-commitments 6 FREE DVD rental trial, and start receiving DVD's.
CANCEL WITHIN YOUR TWO WEEK FREE TRIAL AND IT WON'T COST YOU A PENNY.

STEP 4: Refer people to do the same as you are just about to do, you only need 8 people to do as you did and the console is yours. You will get your own link that you can email out to friends, post on forums etc.


If you're still thinking that this must be a scam then BBC Newsnight made a program based on these offers and it explains exactly how these companies make their money and how they can afford to give away these items.

I recommend watching it if you haven't done this type of thing before!

You will need Realplayer to view the video clip

Thanks for reading this, I hope that you sign up through the link above, then you get 8 people to do the same for you!! Maybe one day I'll play you online at Tennis!!!

Answer 3

The currons Sony Sixaxis controller that comes with the system does NOT support vibartion. This is because that during tests, sony found that vibration interfered with the bluetooth connectivity of the controller and ESPECIALLY with the motion-sensing of the controller, so they chucked it, thinking that people would like motion-sensing more than vibration

Answer 4

nope,there wont be any vibration system in the new wireless controllers,as the motion sensors that are in place in the wireless ps3 controllers will not be able to be put to full use if the controller vibrates,how ever,other companies might start to release wireless vibrating ps3 controllers wich dont have the motion sensors in them,up2 u!

hope this helps

Answer 5

No. Not that you can rely on. Go see your doctor or go to planned parenthood and get a perscription. If you are not ready to make babies and support them, then be on the safe side and do not go cheap on borth control, or your might find your self with a baby. And you really shouldn't do that till you are ready for it. Go to a doctor. I promise your parents would rather have you on the pill than become grandparents before it is the right time. Good luck.

Answer 6

The control pads do not have the vibration function, because of the lawsuits they were hit with. They may have them soon.

Answer 7

depends on when you finally will buy it ... nah, Sony has announced that the PlayStation 3 controller has lost its vibration functionality because it interfered with its sensors, so it's a design defect ... maybe PS4 will come of age !

Answer 8

You can buy an add-on to make the PS3 sixaxis controller have force-feedback (Rumble).
I am trying to find the link but I can assure you that you can get rumble on the PS3.
Btw good choice. I have already preordered mine =-)
