  • Happy Birthday Rumble Pak

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

This thing was the bomb back in the day

It's lame as fuck now and we may have been a bit desensitized with all the rumbling we get, but I'd rather have it than not. This thing and the excellent use in Star Fox and Goldeneye is what popularized it for console gamers.

It was the first, and also the most devastating, when you got hit you felt it.

I remember how cool it was to play it with Starfox. You were the most popular kid in school if you had managed to get a rumble pack, let alone two, when they first came out.

I do like the rumbling still today, I don't think it's utilized enough/properly, but it's still an important feature.
