3rd Space Vest Now Supports CoD4, BioShock, Mass Effect & More

At CES in January of this year we had a chance to try out the 3rd Space gaming vest. The vest is pretty cool and basically lets you feel shots in FPS games. The demo we tried the vest on was Unreal and the effects were interesting. If you aren't familiar with 3rd Space's vest, it resembles a vest you would see on a soldier. Inside the vest are a series of air bladders that inflate rapidly when a user is shot in a game to simulate actual strikes from bullets and other weapons. The effects are somewhat realistic, minus the blood and death naturally.

The drawback to the vest is that it is bulky and has cords including USB that run from it to the wall outlet and computer. The other issue with the vest is that the games you like have to have drivers available for the vest to work with the game. 3rd Space the maker of the FPS Vest announced last week that new drivers were available that offered more game compatibility. Some of the games that now functions with the vest include Bioshock, Mass Effect, Call of Duty 4 and more. In all 20 different games are compatible with the 3rd Space vest.
