They could possibly release a patch that you can download.
I think that has to do more w/ the law suit w/ Immersion.

Yes, in short, Immersion is more interested in making money via litigation with Sony than actially selling product in the market place.

Sony on the other hand is more interested in selling BlueRay playes and HD TV's than actually continuing the "entertainment" path created by PS1 and PS2.

Even the new Formula 1 racing game for PS3 is going ahead without FFB development... strange how this dirty little secret wasn't in the advertisment brocures... :roll:

And sadly the Japanese verison 1.0 download of GTHD had full FFB support, but Sony replaced that download with a V1.1 2 days ago that has no FFB support.

The hardware and software can support it - but the lawyers don't want anyone to use it... :roll: :x
