The Novint Falcon: The next step in the evolution of PC Gaming

Novint is the pioneer of consumer 3D touch, and released the world’s first consumer 3D touch device, the Novint Falcon.

The Falcon adds a whole new layer of touch to enabled games, and allows you to feel the recoil of a weapon, the weight of an object when picked up and held, the momentum of your characters body when jumping or strafing, weapon reloads, directional damage, and virtually anything else that happens in the game.

In Team Fortress 2, for example, you will feel the Heavy’s minigun spinning up, and its recoil as each bullet is fired. As the Spy, you will feel when you backstab an enemy with your knife. Additionally, you will feel when you pull back the string on the Snipers bow, and feel it quickly fling forward as you release your arrow. This sense of touch will fundamentally improve your level of immersion throughout gaming experience.

In Half-Life 2, you will feel the weight of a barrel when picked up, and how, when you pick up that same barrel with the gravity gun, it will feel significantly lighter. You will also feel the reload of your magnum as Gordon flicks it open, inserts the new ammo, then moves his finger downwards to spin the ammo compartment, all with a very realistic sense of touch.

The Falcon will greatly enhance the overall experience and, with the ability to feel directional damage, improve online competitiveness for both hardcore and casual gamers alike. Below are a few quotes that show the power the Falcon will have in transforming your games.

Gabe Newell, Valve: "The Falcon adds a new level of interaction for PC gaming, adding compelling force feedback while maintaining controls as accurate as a mouse, and now the millions of Steam gamers will have the chance to play, feeling this new type of experience.”

Adam Sessler, Host, G4’s XPlay: "It’s absolutely amazing"

Computer Gaming World: "BEST. PERIPHERAL. EVER. Forget Nintendo’s Wii-mote; Novint Technologies’ Falcon is a three-dimensional controller that adds a whole new layer to gaming."

Tech-Gaming: "…Next, we tried Haptic-Life 2… Overall, it was a completely engrossing experience and made going back to playing Half-Life without the Falcon completely lifeless."

IGN: "there's no denying that it's one of the most unique and powerful controllers there's ever been."

TechDigest: “How do you make Left 4 Dead even better than it already is? The answer: play it with the Novint Falcon pistol grip mouse controller.”

Joystiq: “We're big fans of Novint's Falcon controller … We were even more excited after we wrapped our mitts around the new pistol grip and played a little Left 4 Dead.”

Overclockers HQ: "Would I recommend this product? You are damn straight I would! For $199 it is cheaper than a Wii, and in my opinion a lot more fun."
