I hate vibrating remotes while I'm playing games. It's annoying as hell.

Might think of reconsidering when I get my PS3 in June though.

Only if it is set to 'on' by default. I don't care one way or the other and I don't bother setting it to 'off'. 

Force feedback is one of those things I thought was dumb when I first heard of it, but as it got integrated into more and more things I found it surprisingly effective. It's a small, simple thing, but I like it.

Now that I think about it, I'm rarely even consciously aware of rumble while I'm playing, but I always prefer to have it on if I can.

Yeah, I like force feedback.

i tend to keep it off to save battery life and keep control in a firefight without the distraction from the vibrater

Always. I even own a couple of Buttkicker Gamers for my seat (which is really more sonic resonance of the bottom end than regular old rumble).

I like it. Too be honest though, after the first xbox's crazy-ass rumble, I barely even notice it this gen.

Never not vibrating.

Yes, and I also play with the controller down my pants.

A always play with vibrating, feels weird not to.

I need it in case of Star Wolf.

Most games, yes.

Yes, and I enjoy its feel. It's as though something is lacking when it's not on.

Yeah but I like to get a good amount of lube on it first.

Rumble.

Always. 

As others have said, I'm so used to having it on at this point that it's weird if I don't feel the rumble when I would normally expect it.

If it's there I leave it on, I barely even notice it anymore.

I am largely indifferent towards it. If it is on by default, I leave it on. If it is off by default I don't bother turning it on.

I like vibrating controllers.

I always use it. I could live without it, but it adds an interesting effect to immersion I suppose.

Yes, just about all the time.  It adds a little tactile feedback to the experience.

Absolutely! Anything else feels wrong, and it actually throws me off a little. Every few weeks my 360 controller will run low on battery and stop vibrating, it drives me nuts.

Always. 

with most of my games i do.

I've had it on for so long now that having it off just feels bad.

I used to hate it, but I almost can't play without it at this point.  That is my number 1 gripe with playing action games with KB & M. 

No way. Ever since those controllers were first made I thought they were annoying and stupid.

Sweet sweet stimulation.

I turn it off. It adds nothing for me and having it off saves on battery power.

Yes. i wouldn't have it any other way

Metal Gear Solid 4 has got the best use of rumble in any game I've ever played, I'm hoping other games will do what that game did with it but so far I haven't found any.

Yep. It doesn't distract me, I find it blends very well into the experience.

Yeah, when the option is there I have it on. At times you come across games that use it effectively, but few do it bad in a way that's annoying, so the pros outweigh the cons for me.

I wish I could turn it off in Civilization 4 though. Even though it doesn't have controller support, if my 360 controller is connected the controller will shake violently whenever I click menu items, which is just weird, as there's no other vibration feedback in the game.

I don't exactly go out of my way looking for it, but it doesn't bother me. I'll just play on whatever the default is.

Yes, always.

I love the feel of rumble on controllers. Being a PC gamer, I specifically bought a Novint Falcon so I wouldn't miss out on it. Sadly though... it wasn't worth it. That thing was hard as hell to control and had hardly any game support besides Valve's games.

What's with all the necro'ed threads.
