Lock if posted.

Let's discuss on what it could be

 

[GavinGT]

Guy's fixing that bumper hinge. That can't be a coincidence. But the other guys are just cleaning off Cheetos dust.

 

[BraXzy]

If they are doing a controller revision, that's an awesome way to tease it

 

[Americanmushroom]

Maybe they'll sell a cleaning product for controllers lol

 

[ViciousDS]

Bumpers, led lit face buttons and view button being made dedicated along with a physical select button being placed?

 

[Fracas]

Looks more like just an innocent ad to me.

 

[Head.spawn]

That title seems like a bit of a stretch.

Phil said they are working on one, but nothing about that tweet makes me think this has anything to do with it.

 

[MrMatt555]

Hmm...

Not much to see here.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

$100M controller.

 

[OnPoint]

Maybe let it hook up with Bluetooth on my Surface?

Unless someone out there knows a way to do that...

 

[allan-bh]

Looks more like just an innocent ad to me.

Same here. But there is a rumour about new controller.

 

[GavinGT]

If they address nothing else, they need to fix the bumper hinges and tighten up the joysticks.

Also, I'd like them to bring back the ring of light. As it is, it's difficult to tell who's assigned to which controller

 

[The Albatross]

Hoping theyve come up with a way to integrate voice commands with the controller and not need the kinect. Some of the voice commands are legitimately useful.

 

[Twin Tails]

French
We are quietly preparing...

 

[FrsDvl]

Its a "dust off your controllers cause e3 is going to be nuts" add.

 

[Colonel Nasty]

I could see a dedicated record that button

 

[FordGTGuy]

$100M controller.

The best gaming controller on the market.

 

[Hatchtag]

Rename whatever the fuck they have now to start/select. I've had the system for a year and still can't tell you what they're called.

 

[metareferential]

Maybe let it hook up with Bluetooth on my Surface?

Unless someone out there knows a way to do that...

There's a wireless dongle coming.

 

[The Broken Ska Record]

$100million in development costs down the drain.

 

[HardRojo]

I'd love to see a somewhat wider controller. The shoulder buttons are very uncomfortable for me to use currently.

 

[Crawl]

Dusting off the controller because no one plays Xbox in France?

 

[GavinGT]

$100million in development costs down the drain.

Because it needs some small tweaks?

 

[Robot Pants]

Probably be episode of D4

 

[Hibiki Kurosawa]

Its a "dust off your controllers cause e3 is going to be nuts" add.

That's sort of how I took it. Not going to get my hopes up just yet.

 

[Majine]

I really don't think it is specifically about a controller.

 

[RowdyReverb]

Its a "dust off your controllers cause e3 is going to be nuts" add.

I could see that.

 

[FordGTGuy]

You're acting as if the controller is being replaced...

They are only improving it even more.

 

[Americanmushroom]

lol

 

[Jessie.Bristol]

Rename whatever the fuck they have now to start/select. I've had the system for a year and still can't tell you what they're called.

They're called Menu and Options. Honestly, doesn't matter what they are called to me. They are both in the same place and perform the exact same functions as Last-Gen. I guess for more casual players it is easier to understand their function then Start and Select/Back.

 

[EBE]

The Tomorrow Children is now Xbone exclusive.

 

[block tower]

maybe Microsoft will actually design a controller that doesn't need batteries in 2015 lol

 

[SecretAgentHam]

Just add an internal battery I can charge instead of having to invest in a play and charge kit.

 

[The Faceless Master]

they're painting it white?

 

[Majine]

Just add an internal battery I can charge instead of having to invest in a play and charge kit.

You'd still have to invest in the new controller.

 

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

This.

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

Very subjective, but I won't disagree with your taste

Actually they are "View" and "Menu".

Start and select no longer make sense when these buttons don't serve that kind of purpose anymore.

 

[Mihael Mello Keehl]

Please an xbox 360 controller for Xbox one

 

[Malo]

Nah.

Xbox duke controller for Xbox one . Spencer trolls us all

 

[Zil33184]

I hope they release a new controller with shoulder buttons. I can't stand the feel of bumpers.

 

[Crimsonclaw111]

Judging by the size, they're bringing back the Duke.

 

[Hatchtag]

I donno, it's just more confusing, because
1) Menu and options are so damn similar. You always go to the menu to adjust the options. When it's written down in text form, it's hard to remember which is which.
2) The icons on the buttons look too similar, so when you see them, it's hard to remember which is which.
3) There's no growing up with them. Start and Select might arguably be as bad, but they have a history of being that way built into people.

Honestly I think Nintendo's the only one whose come up with a naming system that's better than start/select with plus and minus. Xbox and Playstation need to have something that has easily memorable icons to go along with it.

 

[MHWilliams]

They'll add a dedicated record button to the controller.

 

[Apathy]

Looks more like just an innocent ad to me.

But what would they be advertising if it were just that and not a revision? I can't see an instance where the little people on the controller could be used as just an ad and not a tease to a remodel.

 

[LycanXIII]

Could have posted the Tweet.

 

[FordGTGuy]

Nah.

#teameneloops

Eneloops are sooo good.

Why are people so adamant about internal batteries?

Just look at the awful battery life on the DS4, meanwhile my Xbox One controllers last 50 hours on a pair of eneloops.

 

[shungokusatsu]

Wasn't there a rumor a few weeks back here that MS was working on a new controller for the hardcore?
