Vote to Decide on New Color for Xbox Controllers

Microsoft is listening to gamers who wanted color options for their Xbox controller. The company is even taking it one step further by putting the choice of colors in the gamers' hands. In a new twist, gamers can log onto www.xbox.com until March 31st to help decide the colors of a special line of Xbox controllers.

Xbox is offering gamers the choice of red, orange, green, blue and clear. The new color controllers will retain the physical characteristics of the Xbox Controller S.

The votes will be tallied on March 31, and the winning colors will be unveiled at the Electronics Entertainment Expo (E3) May 14 in Los Angeles. The new color controllers will appear on retail shelves this October in North America.

The controllers will be sold separately for an estimated retail price of $29.99 and will join the black Xbox Controller S on retail shelves.
