Hi, I was thinking if there is a gaming mouse that vibrates, like a controller does. One of the things I like the most about gaming with a controller is that. IDK, would be cool to have it in a mouse.

I had a steelseries mouse with some vibration settings. But I don't think it took game data, more like a few programmable bumps you could set up to trigger x seconds after you hit a mouse button.

Same, SteelSeries Rival 700. It could be used by games in the same way as a controller, but the game had to implement support specifically for it, and developers aren't going out of their way to support a single gimmick mouse.

I think it had a few options to use the vibration for kill tracking or health alerts in CounterStrike, but that's all I can remember, and I still never used it.
