Microsoft Lands Force Feedback Payout

San Jose's Immersion Corp., purveyor of all things force feedback, said Tuesday that it will pay Microsoft $21 million to settle litigation that cropped up in June last year, a legal web which also involved Sony.

Now that the Microsoft and Immersion have come to terms, Immersion will become part of Microsoft's Certified Partner Program.

Immersion's settlement will be a one-time payment for the full amount. Additional terms of the settlement are confidential.
