[QUOTE="j_bro007"] Hello everybody im new here on the forum and glad to be here so please go easy on me :)
now with that being said i will now give my thoughts on the PS3 controller, i have so much to say so let me start
i read 5 pages of this thread and i can kinda guess what the other 40 are, people who still have a problem with
the controller and its abilities. if you are one who sees the big picture with sony's idea to include a tilt sensor in
its controller thats good. if you are one who don't well allow me to paint a picture for you.
first let me ask you a question, how many of you gamers sit still without moving and tilting the controller
while playing your favorite game? 1....2.....maybe 3? let me ask you another question, why do you tilt and
move your controller while playing your favorite game? many of you do tilt while playng, think im wrong?
why don't you look down at your hands the next time you are playing your game.
remember back in the old days when playing the game we would tilt and move the controller because we thought
that it would help or make some differance in gameplay, well now it will. and what i dont understand is why everybody
thinks this is a bad move on sony's part, i think it is a good move by sony to include a tilt sensor in the controller
tilting the controller will now be as natural as moving the joystick,
i see the future in this technology and it looks good.
many of you say that this is a poor atempt at stealing nintendo's idea but i don't think so
many new ideas are born this way. remember when dodge started making minivans with 2 sliding doors
then it became a standard for all minivans from that point on, or when german luxary cars included a GPS
navigation system and now almost every car has one.what nintendo did was set the new standard for
a new type of gameplay. you can tell me all you want about not wanting this feature but deep down inside
you know you want to try it. i mean look at all of the things you can do with the controller
can you for a second imagine what this will mean for any game coming out in the future.
a boxing game is a good example,while boxing you could tilt the controller left or right to make the charactor lean
left or right to avoid getting punched.or a shooting game where tilting the controller back and forward will make
you look up or down making targeting a little easier,or how about a new tony hawk game with this feature
tilting the controller will balance the skater while grinding or doing manuals. there are too many other ideas to list
but this is just the icing on the cake.
as for the look.
IMHO i think the boomerang controller sucked,i was glad to see they stuck with the same controller
there is nothing more for me to say on looks.
as for the rumble feature being removed.
i could care less, it really did little for me and my girlfreind enjoyed it a little too much. i will agree with one thing
though, i will miss the rumble feature in shooting games but thats it. so they trashed the rumble feature BIG DEAL!
if you need the rumble feature so bad then go play the xbox 360. but if you want to take a step in a new
direction in gameplay then the PS3 is the place to be.
i am a playstation fan,sure i have all the other systems but my playstation is always the one with the most games
im just glad the nintendo fans have 1 less thing to brag about lol.
if by now you still dont like the tilt feature just wait untill you get your PS3 you might change your mind.
well thats all for now.

Maybe you don´t care about rumble in the PS3 controller, thinking in FPS, Third Person Shooters, but what about Survival Horror Games (Resident evil, Silent Hill, etc) and lot´s of other games that exploit´s the rumble feature, Sony could not put together tilt sensor and vibration, and they sacrifice one thing for the other, how many games are going to gain with tilt sensor, how many are going to loose with out vibration.
Time will tell.
i don't really care for survival horror games anymore, and im just saying this because i support the tilt feature.
i just hope all of this public outcry don't cause sony to go back to the rumble thingy.
like i said though i really don't care for the rumble feature anymore.
i think it is time for a change the, boomerang controller is now gone(that thing really sucked)
so please let sony take it from here and do what they do best(bring us the best damn enterainment system ever made:))
