Default Buttkicker Gamer2, is it worth it?

Is it worth getting a Buttkicker Gamer2 for CloD? http://www.thebuttkicker.com/gaming/
Do many people use this for CloD? Should I be tempted to get one?

Happy landings,

Talisman

+1 for this, I'd like to know as well if anyone has one. Still can't quite understand what it does mind, I've watched all the videos but still don't quite get it. Is it just a rumble pack, or does it act like some sort of sub-woofer through the viabrations?

Also, if someone does happen to have both one of those and the Obutto seat that'd be even better, since you can order one with the Obutto (which is why I'm interested), but some reviews I saw show that most gaming seats don't have the pole to fit the buttkicker on, so was just wondering if the Obutto has that or not, since I haven't got the patience, knowhow or time to fix one up if it doesn't have it.

It is always interesting to find out about new technology and improvements that are being made!

Though in my case this device might be slightly redundant. I get my buttkicked each and every time I go online with out the need of artificial augmentation!

Just clamp a big subwoofer to your chair. Same thing. All it does is use the subwoofer to give your chair some shake whenever a low sound occurs. In racing games it's the engine, same with flying game, but the guns and explosions also do it as well. What gives it the "big vibrations" is that it's mounted on the end of a short arm type assembly which amplified the low-end vibrations.

Given the price, you could probably rig up a similar setup for just over 1/2 what it goes for.
