Special edition controllers are a regular sight. I am currently still using my [amazon_link id=”B002I0H79C” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Gears of War 3[/amazon_link] [amazon_link id=”B0050SYTJK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]controller[/amazon_link] but I have not been tempted to buy another until now.
This is the special edition Xbox 360 controller for the upcoming reboot of [amazon_link id=”B004FSE52C” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Tomb Raider[/amazon_link]. It comes with a damaged, used look complete with pre-etched scratches, fingerprints and bandages. Now some may look at this and wonder why in the world would anyone want this but I look at it and think it works because of how well it connects with the game that it is designed for. It is dirty, damaged looking and bandaged up just like Lara will be during the game. It would have been easy to slap a picture of Lara’s face on a controller and sell it but I am glad someone thought outside the box.
Purchase of the controller will also give gamers access to a special character skin in Tomb Raider’s multiplayer. The controller will cost $59.99.
[amazon_link id=”B004FS8LYK” target=”_blank” container=”” container_class=”” ]Tomb Raider[/amazon_link] releases on March 5th.
