Could the PlayStation 3 be getting last-gen's rumble functionality before the end of the year? According to the rumors section in the latest issue of PSM, the answer might be yes. The magazine even gets into specifics, saying that the Sixaxis rumble controller will be announced at E3 this year with a projected release date of November 13th. Seems sort of odd that a rumor would have such a concrete date attached to it, doesn't it? Sounds more like someone either a) has a big mouth or b) enjoys playing games with magazine editors. Word is that Kojima wanted rumble included, and considering the importance of MGS 4 to the PS3 platform, Sony listened.
I've really got my fingers crossed for 'a'. I never noticed how much rumble meant to me until it was gone. I don't particularly like the idea of paying for something the system should have come with in the first place, but sometimes that's just the way the cookie rumbles.
