Advantages: Great rumble

Disadvantages: Dual Shock is better

Most games console developers and producers now include a rumble feature in their games, therefore the rumble or feedback must be included in the control pad or as a separate device. So, Sony have the Dual Shock pads, meaning you won't have to fork out for a rumble pack or a vibration pack, as the Dreamcast's is called, and so the Dual Shock is great value for money. Now, with the DC pads now available for £9.99, you can get a vibration pack for about the same, and they are worth it - enhances the gameplay no end.

A superb peripheral for the controller, the vibration pack fits into the second exp slot in the DC pad, it won't go in the first. It's a strange looking thing, and although this is pointless information - if you look at the back of the pack it has a face :) Ahem. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone, as long as you have a Dreamcast of course, there is no point otherwise - it doesn't make for a great ornament!

How strong is it? Well made and light - it's a fair bit more powerful than the shock in the dual shock pads, and in my view it seems more intelligent too. Feel every bump, turn slide and crash - most DC games make use of it, which is a good thing of course. Sega Rally, MSR and Soul Calibur and Crazy Taxi are particularly good with it.

5 star product.

Dual Shock is a better idea, but this is a good pack.
