from what ive heard from DK this is just a big analgog stick and not really worth it

(EDIT: noticed analgog is actually supposed to be analog but heh ill leave it)

It depends how you like to play your games really, and I'm surprised that DK said that after he was so desperate to win one at i37 :p.

If you're serious about pinpoint precision and can't be bothered with training on the Falcon then you'll never be as good as you could be, but it's great just to have a load of fun on too. If I had a 3D wrap-around monitor this would definitely take the immersion to a different level altogether :D.

I said it was a big joystick with a pretty advanced rumble, get it right! D:

Besides, it makes single-player games that much more awesome... just wish more games supported it, which I'm guessing the novint dudes are working on

Change it to my name then Mr. Big, because it is pretty much an analog stick with some rumble and the potential of being converted into a sex toy.

Although, I don't see why Chalex is apologising for the time. MST is 7 hours behind us, so that gives those interested until 7am on the 15th to get orders in. Can someone explain to me why you would want one, besides it being a gimmick and interesting to own, because it just isn't.

Each to their own, I can't say that I decide to use it every time I play a game. Still, the code is here for those that want it :).

On a non-gaming note though, the Falcon can be used for some pretty freaking cool physics stuff, it just needs much better support.

on another semi-non-gaming note: the brick is a pretty damn cool tool for smooth curving shots when filming in-game... as long as you turn the sensitivity right down.

Ohhhh good idea DK, I'll make sure I try that out at some point.
