"...you really become the character that you are playing and really feel what that character is feeling.  If you’ve ever played a FPS, taken a hit, and wondered where it was coming from, then this is definitely a controller for you.  After having tested one of their shooters with the attachable pistol grip, I was quite astonished. I felt where my enemies were attacking me from, the kickback from my weapons, and even the reload."

"I’m not the most hardcore of gamers and most of the time am excited when I get more kills than deaths in  multiplayer games, but playing through Team Fortress 2 I found that after a few rounds with the Falcon I was able to compete just as well if not better than I do with my mouse.  I found shooting, turning, and aiming to be as precise as a mouse with the added bonus of the kick from the Force Feedback adding to the immersion."

"...For the past few years, the company has been moving into games. The Falcon controller launched in 2007, but there weren't many games it would work with. "You need content to drive your sales," Anderson says. Novint worked on cornering triple-A game titles for a few years. These days, it works with about 50 games, including The Orange Box releases. The Alibi spoke with Anderson about his company, the technology and the future of video-game-making in Albuquerque. "

"A traditional mouse gives you control over a 3D game by moving your hand in a 2D space, and while it works it’s not the same experience as actually controlling your 3D character in a 3D space. The Falcon does just that. And, not only can you maneuver with your hand in a 3D space you feel the physics acting upon you like the weight of a crate or barrel, or the recoil from your weapon."

Game.ie: Review - Novint Falcon, November 30, 2009
"After playing with the Novint Falcon for quite a while...I went back to the keyboard and mouse just to see what it would feel like, and, quite simply, it felt like an incomplete experience...I would much rather play a shooter with the Falcon anytime than playing it with the mouse and keyboard combination.
