rumble was removed
because Sony and Microsoft were sued for copyright infringement.

Motion sensing had been in since before Wii was unveiled.

i know why they removed it
the only longer running law suit is the sega/ multiple camera angle debate

adding tilt sensitivity was still an after though
and a bad one at that
the pad feels too light now, and i don't want accidental leanage to affect my game...
:D

I love the sploshing of water about in Blast Factor
it's simple but so cool. And Flow is quite nice with the tilt control.

What's the SEGA camera thing about?

what was the 3d racer they made before daytona?
with the F1 cars?

anyway, this was the first game that let you change camera view
whilst playing, and since then Sega have been trying to sue everyone
whose used a movable camera since

all this legal wranglng kills the industry
did you know there are certain companies set up for the sole purpose
of securing game ideas without the intent of creating them
they just wait untill someone else comes up with the idea
and then they sue

Of course Sega are suing whenever they get the chance.
Poor bastards are bankrupt!
They had to sell Sonic, it's not right.

oh yeah
that's why the motion sensor isn't actually on the circuit board, but soldered on as an afterthought?

i'm all for shouting out the ps3's good points, but pretending sixaxis is something other than a paniced reaction to the wii smacks of fanboyism. :)
