Remember that article about the controller with the joysticks that pulled the skin on your thumbs to enhance the gaming experience?  what if they put that on the back of the controller and used this tech on is as well.  The Xbox 720 is starting to sound like a pretty kick-ass console to me.

I would much prefer a controller with a greater sensitivity in the buttons especially for racers.  Having more than 3 throttle options would be great (0,%50,%100).  Razer has a great controller that shows how it can be done.

It could be really cool if you could use your gamertag just by using your controler.  Keeping your achivements on another X-Box.

interesting...if this works,that would be AMAZING!!!

wow...good?....bad?...

What's the point of a controller knowing who's using it...?

Ummm, I'm not too sure.

how very stupid only thing stupider than this idea is wii U

So it'll remember it was me who threw it up against the wall? I'll be closing my door when I go to bed. It can't open doors, right?

Why cant they just put up to date equipment inside the 360 every 2 to 3 years? Everyone would be up to date as consoles break every 2 to 3 years anyway. If they send it in for repair, it would be upgraded or they can buy a new one. No name change, no look change, just upgraded hardware. That way we dont have to change anything and worry about backwords compatability and all that nonsense. Also, whats the point of this?

When the HELL are you going to use that? I feel like Microsoft is becoming like apple. Making meaningless cool crap.

A controller that will fulfill Kinect's promise? The irony is palpable

very cool, until gets thrown in frustration and stops working

This would be cool. This way I don't have to keep signing my brother out whenever I want to play.

why? sounds useless

Because everyone is hating on microsoft having a "wierd, stupid, useless" ect. patent let me remind you of Sony's controller patent. http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2012/04/19/sony-patents-bizarre-looking-controller.aspx

And the price is?
