Kojima Grumbles For Rumble [ News ] (totalvideogames.com)

- totalvideogames.com -

Sony's decision not to utilise rumble technology in the PlayStation3's Sixaxis controller is well-documented, but it seems that even noted game developers hope for its inclusion at some point in the future.

In an interview with Official PlayStation Magazine UK, Metal Gear Solid director Hideo Kojima spoke about how he missed the rumble feature, and how he hopes that it'll return. Kojima-san also confirmed that whilst his current project, Metal Gear Solid 4, will utilise Sixaxis motion control functionality, he admitted to not knowing how it will be integrated into the game's control system...something of a worry if motion control is to feel like a fully formed part of the final game, and not just a tacked on frivolous feature...

Expected to be released on PlayStation3 during 2007, we'll have more news on Kojima's fourth MGS title in the coming months...
