Game developer blog Inner Bits asserts that rumble-enabled PS3 controllers are "quietly replacing original controllers launched with the console." Rumble and enhanced motion-sensing is expected in two to three months says the source.
A developer blog confirms PS3 rumble
"We can confirm that prototypes of the new rumble-enabled controllers have made their way to various Sony developers," reports Inner Bits, a blog where game developers allegedly speak out.
"Information on these controllers is still closely held by Sony and their partners, but an official announcement and unveiling is expected in the next two to three months."
The report predicts that Sony will make an announcement at the upcoming Leipzig Games Convention in Germany, a time when Inner Bits believes enough developers will already be supporting the redesigned controllers.
"New versions of the Sixaxis controller are quietly replacing the original controllers launched with the console," adds blog author Raoul. "Sony has improved the fidelity of motion sensing in the controller."
Sony was not immediately available for comment.
Without knowing Inner Bits, something like this has gotta be true! Sony settles its rumble lawsuit with Immersion and gamers really miss jiggling controllers. Every time I go from Wii or 360 to PStriple sans rumble, it makes me a sad panda.
