Sony, Immersion Settle Lawsuit Over Vibration Technology

I've been interested in hearing what this was all about. Sony had added the Rumble feature to their game controllers on the Playstations and had been sued for stealing the technology from Immersion for $289 Mil in damages dsaying that they broke 2 patent laws.

Today it was announced that the 2 will be working together to bring the function back to the Playstation products. This means that the ne Playstation 3 controllers could have the feature added soon. Boy am I glad I haven't bought one yet. I can only assume that this function will be addecd to the wireless bluetooth controllers and come with the system now. Great news for all those that were upset that the feature wouldn't be on the new controllers. The feature isn't neccessary obviously, but I know it adds to the overall game experience in many cases and helps make an extra warning system available to games in tight situations on games as well as feel the heart pumping effect in horror games.
