Is there a mouse that rumbles like a controller that I can buy because that would be awesome. I like rumble on controllers but if it was on a mouse that would be cool. So is there on you can buy?

Not really a good idea. It is quite the opposite.

I can't imagine why :roll:

Imagine trying to snipe with explosions going off all around you (CoD4 comes to mind).

Exactly, you can't aim if your mouse is constantly vibrating.

Have you ever had your controller lying on the table while it rumbles? Makes a great sound, doesn't it?

Theres never been a mouse with force feedback. Its probably not a good idea and it fails to simulate any kind of actual feedback as opposed to force feedback from a joystick that simulates feedback from plane/ship mechanics.

There is the Logitech iFeel mouse that has rumble, buts its intended more to help blind users navigate than actual gaming.

Ok ok ok... The mouse was a bad idea I guess... But how about a vest that you put on that simulates getting shot! When you get hit on a certain part of you body the vest will send out a shock or something that will hurt the area you got hit. And you can wear a helmet for headshots. Maybe I should just join the real army...

Vibration is overrated in my opinion. Back in the N64 days i thought it was the coolest and simplist idea ever. But since i got the wavebird controller for my GC I've stopped caring.

Wouldn't vibration interfere with the lasers contact with the surface?

Would definitely interfere with your aiming! It would be a nightmare on a game like cs 1.6, where u need a decent aim xD

Nice in theory but in practice it would be vibrating around the table and it would be harder to focus the laser on the flat surface to aim.

Logitech actually did make a force-feedback "mouse", but it was really more of a mouse-shaped joystick that was affixed to a particular pad, presumably to provide true force-feedback. They presumably downgraded to rumble feedback to make the iFeel mouse more practical in that respect, though it still wasn't really practical. (I'm perfectly content with my Logitech G500 not having rumble, or the G5 that preceded it...)

You already get a tiny little vibration on most mice when you click to shoot. That'll do. Anything else would throw you off aiming, and vibration would make a horrible noise.
