Playing Motorstorm with the 6-axis in the controller was a surreal experience. And that was a launch title. Same with playing a mature FPS from the makers of Ratchet & Clank and Spyro.
not to mention the crash bandicoot and jak & daxter devs making the last of us
@Omegamanthethird @Thassodar Did they have the six-axis at launch? I'm trying to remember the specifics -- it has been so long -- but I do remember that Sony had a lot of trouble getting the dual shock motors to work together with the six-axis thing for whatever reason (I mean I assume they never run at the same time?) and I thought I remember a delay due to that?
It has been too long. I don't remember well.
You're kind of remembering right. The first controllers were 6-axis and did not have rumble. They claimed it was impossible.
Later on they added it back in and it became the dual shock 3.
@Omegamanthethird Ohhh. It was the other way around. Hah.
