Wavebird? Pah!

[WPKenny]

A bit of pimping for GAME shops here. The "Wavebird", in HMV costs 35 quid and it doesn't have a rumble feature.

The "Playfree" in GAME shops costs 20 quid and have rumble. Teh win!

Everything should be wireless......

I luv the wavebird despite the lack of rumble.

We tried the playfree in store the range was terrible and it wasnt as responsive as the wavebird, i since purchased the wavebird and dont miss the rumble at all.

Don't scrimp on quality.

Wavebird is the BEST gamepad EVER made.

Not really, would of better if they builtin a rechargable battery so they could include the rumble

The rumble is nothing to do with the battery life.

It's something to do with 2 way radio signals being difficult to incorporate.

Good company - use them for ALL my Jap stuff now.



If ordering 2 - make it seperate orders cos the shipping works out more expensive shipping 2 togther than in singles.

No probs with Customs if shipped seperately as well.

nevertheless, without a rechargable system, I'm not buying them. If my goddamn mouse can recharge itself, then so can a sodding joypad.

I want an orange pad :\

My WB are 6 months old and I've changed the batteries on one of them ONCE (last week).

Once is too goddamn often. My old mouse did similarly well, but it still adds up, over time.
I probably paid for my mouse twice over, or more, through the batteries it required over the two or three years I used it.
