Up Close With The Halo 4 Controller
Alongside Halo 4, we're getting a special edition Xbox 360 that includes a Halo 4 themed console and controller. Microsoft's Major Nelson has confirmed that the controller will be sold separately, and he's made a slightly out of focus video to prove it.
You can check out the video below to see the controller up close. It has blue lights instead of green around the home button, it's mostly see-through, and it has the face d-pad that be rotated to a more comfortable position. In the video, Mr. Nelson also outlines the Xbox 360 essentials pack that includes a controller, a media remote, a 6.5' high-speed HDMI cable, and three months of Xbox Live Gold.
Both The Essentials Pack and the Halo 4 controller will will be available next month.
