No Rumble option in Soul Calibur 4

100
TalkPlayStation.com writes:"The Playstation 3 version of Soul Calibur 4 doesn't have a rumble option for the DualShock 3 controller. A TalkPlaystation.com member has sent in an email to say that he got the game early (breaking the street date) and simply told us that he looked in every possible menu when he realised there is no rumble in the game. Apparently an update was released on Friday and that didn't add rumble support either."

The 360 one does, but I hate rumble, first thing I was trying to find on my 360 was how to switch the rumble off. But I couldn't find the option in some games :(. Fighting games are especially better without rumble.

I think there is a console setting that can turn off rumble for a specific profile.

PS3 version still looks better and rumble was never important in fighting games. When you play with the arcade sticks they don't rumble.

I just find it funny that a PS3 game always has something bad about it. Whether it be large installs, no trophies, no rumble, no in-game XMB, no custom soundtracks, etc. Then it's "Company X are a bunch of lazy devs, no buy from me" It's like every PS3 game goes through this.

I haven't checked in the personal settings on my 360 for ages, but thing is some games are OK with rumble, like RPGs/FPS, but some games are annoying like fighting games and racing games. So I wouldn't want to switch it off completely just for those types of games.

1.10 - @ Ghoul
yes, i would agree to that. i am extremely picky and i want rumble in every game. i know some people say it takes away from the experience but i'm not one of those people.

no rumble, trophies, or custom music..........no buy. i'll wait for a patch.

these devs have to start catering to wants and needs. if they can't do that, they don't deserve my money. i have more than enough games to play.

@raiders

I don't think its about there being a patch in the future. I think its about ps3 versions of games always being short on features and not competing with the Xbox 360 versions time and time again. If I was a soul calibur fan and only had a ps3 I would be angry too.

@gaffyh:

SO you are saying the 360 version has rumble? Because a lot of posters over at Neogaf are confirming that it doesn't. Do you have it already? Now I am confused about the whole thing. It would make the first 360 game without rumble that I can think of if that's the case...

Not True at all. I have a Hori fighting stick model# HPS-71 it has rumble support. It also has digital and analog support, L3/R3 buttons, as well as a mode button that functions as the PS button.
It is an older stick from the PS2 era that was future proof.

Dude, nearly every game after Ratchet & Clank: ToD has supported rumble straight out of the box (except CoD4...)

Even Tekken 5 Dark Resurrection supports rumble, so Namco has already worked with it!

This is just BS... I can't believe Namco did that...

2.2 - Great Point!
"Add-ons" always fail. Sega CD, Sega 32x, N64 Expansion Pack, etc. The only Add-On that has succeeded is the Xbox 360 HDD. The only reason it succeeded is that it was available at launch and it was integrated into the 360 SDK.

what the hell NAMCO is using their time for. its been 3 years and they did not release Tekken 6 i smell something fishy. it might be they are concentrating on getting more cash rather than make the best game. well its a shame that rumble is not there.

Sorry, but that's a damn shame. This isn't Trophies or something from 2.41, how long have developers been able to implement rumble into games? Since late last year IIRC, so this very well should have been in for the game's launch.

pathetic that they couldn't include rumble for the PS3 version, but it won't affect me either way. Up until 2 months ago, we didn't have rumble, in-game music, or trophies in any games. I'll still be picking up the PS3 version for Vader.

It's always better to be able to have a choice, but rumble in fighters is a nuisance imo.
I really don't understand why some people prefer to have rumble turned on in tekken or soulcalibur, it doesn't enhance the feedback or anything it just ruins the gameplay overall.

14.1 - Not really
Everyone already has a 360. If sales kept up at that rate... everyone would personally own a 360. Its only common sense to think that sales would have to slow eventually.

All of my friends own a 360. ONE of them also owns a PS3 and he thinks it sucks because there aren't any games for it.

The sad thing is that sales for the 360 are low... and the PS3 isn't doing much better.

A couple of reviews that are already out have stated the PS3 has the edge in graphics. I know tht Play Magazine's review stated that, and there was one other review that I saw already but can't remember what pub it was. The major ones haven't released their reviews yet.

Your absolutely correct because one game without rumble will determine the consoles future....smh

Anyway, it sucks that it doesn't support rumble but doesn't really effect me. Their is always a chance for a patch in the future. Either way, it will be a great fighting game.

Many of us have bought the DS3 so we can play future games with rumble. There is no good reason to leave this out. Sony needs to make sure all the features are supported by these developers. They better have a patch out upon release! This kind of crap is holding the PS3 back.
