HaptX mod lets Novint Falcon control Crysis

A new mod has just been created for the PC game Crysis, by the HaptX Team, and it involves the Novint Falcon controller. The Falcon controller provides force feedback and allows players to really feel every action and attack in a game. The latest mod will make this controller compatible with Crysis, and will be released for download on October 24, 2008.

Apparently the highlight is that the Nano Suit will affect what players feel with the controller. Different modes will make the controller more or less sensitive. The controller will also allow players to feel actions – the ability to feel water resistance when swimming and impacts when falling to the ground are both mentioned in the official press release.

The Falcon controller is pretty pricey though, so it won’t be worth purchasing the controller for this mod alone. The basic controller costs $189.99, and that doesn’t even include any custom, Falcon designed games. If you’re a PC gamer with a lot of extra money to spend, then it may be worthwhile. Otherwise, this mod is just an interesting development.
