Default Xbox 360 Controller now on sale.

Well, kinda. Its actually the xbox 360 controller for windows, but hey, I didn't lie.

Heres the whole story:
http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/659/659804p1.html

I actually like it. Now that I can see it with someones hand in the picture I can actually get a real impression on how big it is.

Anyway, discuss.

Microsoft kind of reminds me of that kid in elementary school. You know the one I am talking about. Chances are you were that kid. Like, say some kid brings an iPod Video to school; he's cool. Everyone wants to be his friend, but he acts are cool about it because he's Mr. F*cking Cool Guy. So that kid tries to attract attention by flaunting his new MiniDisc player. That kid doesnt realize people aren't interested in new music devices, they are interested in that which they have never seen before.

Mr. F*cking Cool Guy is Nintendo with its crazy-ass new controller. Xbox is that kid.

$45 bucks ey?

Ya know, the only reason I'm even contemplating the thought of owning an Xbox360 is solely for Morrowing 4: Oblivion. Shit, that game looks hella tight.

It looks alot more like a mix between the Gamecube controller
and the Playstation controller than ever now.

I read that twice over and still didn't get it. But I think I know what you're trying to say.

He's saying that Nintendo is being Mr. F*cking Cool Guy because it has its
new spiffy controller, but Microsoft is trying to impress people with it's new
and slightley different controller.

Why would someone need two sticks and a D-pad?

I must say, though, it still looks pretty good.

Oh man. I actually typed that? I am so rad.

Basically, thanks to Nintendo for generating so much hype around their "revolutionary" controller, Xbox thinks that people are just really into controllers in general.

Nice, someone talking out of their ass about everything.

Also, everywhere I see in the gaming industry, people are in love with the Xbox360 controller.

Thats because it is awesome.

Im really glad they got rid of those damn black & white buttons. 6 buttons is too many for one thumb to handle. Instead they through them up top (left and right side respectively) so they can be used with your index fingers.
