Then I'd better by the brand Reinder > posted earlier? I don't think the rumble version is just the non-rumble with extra gadget in it. It may actually be that the non-rumble is actually from some other make, just re-branded to fill out the product line with a budget option. Even if they look much the same, they may still come from different firms and factories. > Also, what really is the point in the thing vibrating? I am not a girl > or anything. The force rumblepack is handy in some games. Say you get hit from behind in a fighting game, it may be easier to feel than to see this attack. It also makes games a bit more immersive. It's worth a premium of, say, 5 euros. So I'd say: let's get ready to rumble. -- Danny.
