Microsoft Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo 3 Wireless Controller Covenant - game pad

Introduction I needed an extra controller for my Xbox 360 console; there are many official and unofficial controllers to choose from. After shopping around for one I came across a limited edition Halo 3 controller. Being a fan of the trilogy I decided to buy one, I chose the Spartan edition as opposed to the Covenant one, but it was a hard choice. Details The actual design has a blue/purple background; the halo ring surrounds the centre button. ...
...if the game pad, and a warthog with a driver, gunner, and passenger on the right hand side. It is plain black on the underside. This controller was the same price as a standard plain white one, which I felt was a bonus; I was expecting it to be more expensive.

Review of Microsoft Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo 3 Wireless Controller Covenant - game pad

This limited edition Halo 3 controller has two different version available - the first being this spartan one (which i own) or there is also a covenant one available.

The back of the controller is just black and this is quite unique from the standard white controller. Another advantage of buying this controller is that you get a cool little figurine of master chief aiming a machine gun. This looks quite nice to stick on top of your television. This controller costs ...
