A judge put a stay on this ruling, but earlier this week a federal judge ruled that Sony should halt all sales of the Playstation in the US and pay upwards of $90.7 million in damages to Immersion Corp. Immersion owns patents related to the vibrating feedback and other "force feedback" features of game controllers. Serious stuff.

Reader Comments
(Page 1)2. if you ask that question u also have to ask why the PS2 isnt off the shelves. maybe immersion owned the right to it at the time the PS was being sold, and sony bought it later or re made it somehow. only thing i can figure

6. Yes! YES! TAKE THEM DOWN! IN YOUR FACE SONY.
That is for my new sony big screen TV that had a white light on the side right after the warranty expired and only months later turned off to never turn back on.
That is for this stupid 4 month old $2,000 Sony Viao I'm writing this on right now, that I have to recover at least once month, get at least two dozen uprades a week to stop it from crashing, and have to kick it at least 3 times a day.
That is for my PS2 that doesn't work anymore. That is for my psp's broken analog stick and movies that make my head spin for some reason.
This is the beginning of the end for sony. Go Microsoft, go Nintendo, go Panasonic, go Dell, go all sony competition in any industry, and most importantly GO IMMERSION.
