Rumble is kinda much needed for me because I'm deaf. When I'm playing a FPS or a TPS I can know that I got hit by an enemy *or teammate Halo 2 wise* plus with racing games. I can know that I hit something and take evasive actions to avoid another collision after going 168 mph in a Dodge Charger. With stealth games starting to hit the market by storm, Splinter Cell and MGS are the only ones that are NEEDED for rumble.

Plus, rumble is needed for deaf people like me. Also, blind people too when they play fighting games. There's one completely blind guy that won 2nd place in a Mortal Kombat tournament and gotten 3rd in Street Fighter and 1st in Dead or Alive tourneys. Rumble is needed for people with certain handicaps to help them progress through some games.

i didnt like that guy much he thought he owned the boards or somethingLOZlink

Well, he did say "stample", but nobody cared about the self-ownage =P

And all console FPS for that matter. Rumble is a way of life. It just makes such an effective damage sensor.

For the most part, I think how rumble is used in some some games is more of a distraction and I turn it off.  Unless it adds something to the atmosphere/gameplay, I don't care for it at all.    Games where it works well are survival horror games..like Fatal Frame and Resident Evil.  I know for Fatal Frame, it was a great touch. I can understand it for racing titles.  For FPS, I don't think it's really that necessary at all, nor do I think it really adds anything to the gameplay aspect of it.  I've always felt it was more of a distraction, as I don't want my controller rumbling while I'm being shot at and trying to make a 360 movement to shoot at whoever.  It an especially bad distraction if it's available in fighting games, at least in my opinion. 

I personally think rumble is kind of stupid and unrealistic. I mean, having rumble on when actions are happening to you that don't call of rumble seems kinds of stupid to me. Something explodes, you get rumble. You get shot, you get rumble. You fall on the ground, you get rumble. Seems kind of a cheap way to try to imitate the natural world.

The only good games that use the rumble correctly is the MGS series.kage_53
