Hooray! A new controller is on it’s way for the Xbox 360 and it’s red! Does it make your accuracy better, well… no. It doesn’t do anything like that. But it’s red!
The new package will be coming out at a price of $65 (R531) and if you are wondering why the price is higher than usual its not because red is awesome, it’s because the controller comes packaged with a play and charge kit.
If you haven’t already picked up on my sarcasm, I really don’t get the big thing about controllers coming out in different colours. Microsoft seem pretty impressed with it (of course) and had the following to say:
Â
“The award-winning Xbox 360 Wireless Controller now comes in red, with newly designed black accents,” says Microsoft. “Experience wireless gaming from up to 30 feet and enjoy nonstop play with the included Play and Charge cable and red rechargeable battery.”
We have yet to see any images of it but we can probably assume that it looks like the usual one, except that it will be red, with black accents.

Hehe, I like your photoshop work. I think they chose the color red so that you won’t notice the blood if you tend to smash your head against it during fits of frustration.

Pfft. It is obvious that my image is way superior to those lame “foto-graafes” or whatever those are.

What douche hands out awards for controllers, did it write a novel and win the pulitzer prize. Makes no sense.
