Reality Vest
Score: 99% Developer: Nuby Device Type: Accessory
Function: This is a fun game enhancer meant to give the player a more intense feedback experience. The Reality Vest is perfect if you want your games to move you, and not just shake your hand. Thanks to its pass-thru design, Nuby?s Reality Vest can be used with your favorite controllers.
Performance: No real learning curve is needed for this device. However, the Reality Vest does require a little time for adjusting the fit of the straps before playing. (And the straps are VERY adjustable; truly a ?one-size fits most.?) The Nuby Reality Vest uses four AA batteries to power its feedback units (six in all), and has a pass-thru connection for your controller. The Reality Vest?s feedback is unique, sending a ?wave? of vibrations across your torso. Instead of a solid hit, the vest provides more of a longer effect, as the pulses work their way across your body. While this is a different sensation than Dual Shock controllers, it gives a more enveloping feeling to your game.
Features: Six vibration feedback units Compatible with dual analog and digital controllers Selector switch for customizing shock sequence 5? cord
Drawbacks & Problems:: The only real drawback here is the batteries. However, it can be assumed that the additional power is necessary to support the six vibration feedback units in the Reality Vest. Other than that, the unit seems to be perfect.
