Xbox 360 Limited Edition Chrome Wireless Controllers Announced by Major Nelson

The Major is really spoiling us lately – and following big reveals of the masses of downloadable content available through the Xbox LIVE network in the coming and the full details of the Star Wars Kinect and console bundle (which was released last week) Microsoft Director of Programming Larry Hryb has announced a new wave of stylish chrome wireless controllers which will really pimp your play time!

Posting under the Xbox gamer tag Major Nelson, Hryb reveals the new line-up of limited edition controllers will come in Silver, Blue and Red (region dependant). They will all connect wirelessly and feature the traditional Xbox 360 button layout and functionality of the classic controller. The packaging is pretty sweet too. The gadget is contained within a clear box which showcases its classy sheen – making us wonder if we should actually bust it open or keep it cherry and fingerprint free!

The Xbox 360 Special Edition Chrome Series Wireless Controllers will go on sale in May costing around $55 in the United States. No price or availability info for us Brits yet, but Major Nelson offers us a closer look at on his Flickr page – Here.
