Microsoft Announces Chrome Series Wireless Controllers

If you’re feeling that you’re in the market for a new Xbox 360 controller, then we highly recommend waiting until the middle of next month to pick one up.  Why’s that? Microsoft has just announced that they’ll be releasing special chrome edition controllers for the Xbox 360 next month.

Coming in three colors, red, blue & silver, you’ll be able to get your hands on the chrome series controllers towards the middle of May.  The controllers feature the new transforming directional pad and will be completely wireless.

Each controller will cost $54.99, but color availability may vary by region.  They’re not yet available for pre-order, but we’ll be sure to link you once we see them available on various retailers.
