    Indeed they did, and many arcade games before that. I remember this submarine game with a periscope, when you got hit with a torpedo the whole thing shook. Against your face. It was unpleasant.

    @bmart008: @Spritz: Without knowing the specifics of this particular case, to me, it does sound like there was an ethical breach. Surely this: "In the process of providing that help, Thorner says he licensed some of his own patents to PDP, and in doing so enlisted the help of some layers. The same lawyers who, it turns out, were in the process of handling Sony's case against Immersion. Those lawyers, Thorner alleges, "encouraged him to accept terms that were less than favorable"." counts as a "conflict of interest" no?

    I sort of hope Sony actually did that. Cuz damn, that is quite the daring scheme.


    Sony: actually run by Danny Ocean.

    @nworobes: Isn't it? Ethical issues aside (as well as the fact these are only allegations, not FACTS), its fascinating in its complexity.

    @NINTENDO_ZEALOT: A PSP version of the first 3 games would be awesome.


    Or even a DS port of the Harvey Birdman Ace Attorney game.

    Wait, wasn't cell factor that free game designed to promote Physx cards? I remember trying to play that without, and was hardly able to run it on low everything setting. That and it was pretty basic, didn't let you even PLAY about half the levels if you didn't have a physx card installed, and didn't let you do...well much of anything except use regenerating destructible environments as weapons as a psychic dude, which was neato.
