ThrustMaster's proprietary DirectConnect. DirectConnect:January 1998 Computer Gaming World, RAGE 3D Review. ********* "...Rage 3D features ThrustMaster's proprietary DirectConnect technology, which allows multiple ThrustMaster controllers to be simultaneously connected, and you can then pick and choose which controller(s) will be active..." &copy 1997 Computer Gaming World computergaming.com Note: Papyrus's technology groundbreaking NASCAR 3 (Fall '98?) will be supporting ThrustMaster's DirectConnect (per a previous esecurities post). This is what we have been alluding to all along and now are witnessing early rumblings of industry corroboration? This could be TMSRs ace in the hole...So, why isn't TMSR firmly establishing this perception/reality [DirectConnect is TMSRs answer to bringing the [Nintendo/Sega/Sony] console to the PC) ala Microsoft? (which is exactly why Nintendo, Sony and Sega should be very interested in acquiring TMSR, in our opinion...). DirectConnect certainly should be taking share from Gravis' (NYSE:FO) GrIP...but does the mass market consumer know this? esp. in Europe where FO is spending GrIP advertising $ in all major industry publications...
