  • Abstract:  Behold, the Novint Falcon. This menacing orb has taken up the lofty task of replacing the mouse as the PC gamer's preferred implement of destruction, letting you feel, lift, push and grope every bit of the action. It sits on your desk and provides forc...

  • Solid build quality and smooth response, 3D Touch and Force Feedback Technology, Highly customizable with Novint drivers and software
  • Limited compatibility with newer games at the time of this review, Price (for some)
  • Novint has certainly made a statement with the Novint Falcon. When it was initially released with only the original spherical grip, it was a limited accessory that didn’t look to be useful in a wide variety of games. Novint does provide s...

  • Unique 3D Feedback & Haptic controls, Supports over two dozen games, Close to realistic sensation from the force feedback
  • Supports only select games, Quite large & heavy, May take time to get used to
  • NOVINT sure has a great controller on their hands (no pun intended). The Falcon is by far like no other controller you’ll touch (yup, let the puns begin). A traditional mouse gives you control over a 3D game by moving your hand in a 2D space, and whil...

  • Abstract:  The Novint Falcon is one of those computer accessories that is most gamer’s fantasy. Sure, it has some awesome technology built into it and it offers a whole new dimension in gaming, but to most gamers, it will remain a fantasy rather then a reality pa...

  • Force feedback, Realistic moving, Different grips
  • Price, Not enough games
  • This device will and I repeat will get big on the market, games get so much more fun to play and they also get harder with this device. You get a more realistic feeling of the game and with the different grips that are beeing developed you will feel ev...

  • Abstract:  The Novint Falcon is a controller unlike any other. Its shaped like half a large egg with three arms connected to a small ball. The main egg-like structure houses the large motors and arms, all of which control its complicated haptic gear. The control...

  • Strong, able hardware, Easy installation, Attractive design, Included games are fun, easy to play, Strong haptic effects, Better feedback from supported games, Mods for existing games are free, N VeNT is a strong platform that makes finding games simple
  • Most of the included games are shallow, Not a massive amount of software support yet, Still had to tape the hardwares feet down, despite heavy weight
  • Penumbra is an adventure title played in a first-person perspective, with a horror- and puzzle-solving focus. Most of the puzzles are environmental and require use of the in-game physics to get where you need to go. Being a horror title, much of it tak...

  • Beautifully crafted. Sturdy, solid build. Provides uniquely immersive gaming experience.
  • Very limited software support. Bundled minigames fun factor wears thin over time. Expensive.
  • The Falcon could change the way video games are played, but only if more software developers jump onto the Novint bandwagon and the price comes down a bit....

  • Abstract:  For a lot of people, the story of E3 2006 was the arrival of the Wii and the sudden revolution of console gaming controls. However, unbeknownst to the throngs crowding South Hall more than a year and a half ago, down in Kentia another company premiered...

  Published: 2009-10-28, Author: Andrew , review by: tweaktown.com

  • So, what’s the bottom line with this new controller? How does it stack up against using a mouse and how does it change the way you play games? The fact is that you are always going to be used to a mouse; you have been using them for so long that an...
