Also, awesome. Microsoft is testing it over in Europe, and working out the kinks. It'll come out here and be even better.
I'm calling it now (even though others have called it long before me).
It does look like puke, though.
Great English, btw!
I really want one of these, so i cna't wait for them to hit america
I recall reading, however, that the USA isn't going to be getting these...supposedly the new controllers were intended for particular games which use the d-pad a lot (soccer games in particular, IIRC), which are not as popular here as elsewhere. Of course, many of us would argue that anyone with functioning fingers would prefer a better d-pad even if it's not being used all the time, but oh well.
There is a relatively simple mod you can do to the existing controller's case (just shaving off some excess plastic, really) which supposedly improves its performance - I haven't tried it myself, but there's a tutorial or two floating around on YouTube. Of course, we'd all prefer that MS change its mind and release it over here, but...
good job man. it did actually make coherent sense.
That's nice to hear, maybe it'll be as good as the hori I keep hearing about.
who's sellin it? *checks around*
i'm so serious.
Also your English is pretty darn wicked, better than my German!!
Puke is usually the color of bile, which is somewhere between mustard yellow and tomato sauce red.
This controller is lima bean green.
but good review..your english wasnt that bad so don't worry
i saw one of these yesterday at my GAME induction and wondered if it was any different, hopefully i can get a play on one at my first shift tomorrow and see how it plays
but yeh, like other people have said, would be good if they just worked on a new d-pad all together

Yeah i guess lima bean green descripes it better. Maybe they wanted to let it look more like the grass soccer field :D
