**Raptor** · 17th October 2009

In case you missed it, Xbox 360 has teamed up with GameStop to design an exclusive limited edition Wireless Controller that will be available next week. Bundled with a Play & Charge Kit, the controller features a new design which sports black carbon fiber with red accents. This controller will be sold exclusively at GameStop, EB Games and Micromania retailers in the U.S., Canada, France, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Spain, Ireland, Denmark, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, Norway, Sweden, Australia and New Zealand.

The suggested retail price will be US $69.99.

So it will be sold in most of Western Europe apart from the UK, brilliant.

The carbon looks nice but the red spoils it big time, not that it matters because M$ obviously think there is no market for it in the UK.

There was a really nice dragon themed Xbox controller that was exclusive to walmart in the US. Nearly imported one too.

my battery on the play n charge seems to run out very quickly. I switch the xbox off with the play n charge lit green indicating fully charged, then when i switch it back on next day battery is only half full on the dash

Do all pads come with the new d pad the special green pad did?

**Omgporn** · 17th October 2009

I think in the end Dpad improvement in the end was proven 'a load of crap' Chubbs

So does this hideous looking thing do anything different than a standard controller ? Does it really matter what colour it is and how nice it looks, jesus people will be wanting them in colours to match the curtains next.
