# Realistic Gaming Rifles The Delta Six Combat Rifle Gives Gamers a Real Combat Experience By Wes Walcott | Published 2012-10-06 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/delta-six-combat-rifle References: [engadget](http://www.engadget.com/2012/10/04/delta-six-controller/) & [avengercontroller](http://www.avengercontroller.com/) When it comes to making gamers feel like they're actually part of the action, no peripheral does it better than the [Delta](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/automated-building) Six combat rifle. Equipped with [force feedback motors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/razer-project-madison), the Delta Six actually lets you feel the recoil from every shot you fire. Unlike previous [motion sensing controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nothing-gamepad-1) that require a separate tracking device, the Delta Six incorporates a built-in accelerometer that makes it automatically compatible with any game right out of the box. There's even variety of attachments, like a scope and a suppressor, that can be attached to the gun and provide an added degree of realism. Although some players might not enjoy the fact that you actually have to physically remove the clip and insert a new one each time you reload, the feature really just makes war games much more visceral and teaches an important lesson. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.1/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 74% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 90% men, 10% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/games) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Realistic Gaming Peripherals:** Opportunity for companies to create peripherals that enhance the gaming experience by mimicking real-life actions. - **Force Feedback Technology:** Incorporating force feedback motors into peripherals to simulate real-world actions and sensations, creating a more immersive experience. - **Motion Sensing Controllers:** Development of motion sensing controllers that automatically work with all games, eliminating the need for separate tracking devices. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Gaming:** Creating peripherals that add a new level of realism to the gaming experience and set businesses apart in an increasingly competitive market. - **Consumer Electronics:** Incorporating force feedback technology into a variety of consumer electronics products to create new and engaging experiences for users. - **Military Training:** Expanding the uses of realistic gaming peripherals for military training and simulations, with potential applications in law enforcement and emergency services training. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Full-Body Motion-Tracking Game Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rebuff-reality-bodylink.md) - [Realistic Archery Simulators](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wonder-fitter-smart-archery-and-shooting.md) - [Lifelike FPS Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/unrecord.md) - [Multi-Position Smartphone Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/telegun-smartphone-controller.md) - [Game-Branded Feedback Straps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/woojer-call-of-duty.md) - [Responsive Feedback VR Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/haptic-vr-controller.md) - [Avatar Motion Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alt-motion-controller.md) - [VR-Compatible Gaming Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/game-start-gaming-controller.md) - [Dual-Rumble Motor Gaming Controllers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/turtle-beach-reactr.md)
