So this is just cheap-ass plastic that looks like "chrome," right? The article never once mentions what the material is ("chromed out" doesn't mean anything).
I assume that Microsoft isn't investing in the manufacture of quality metal controllers, but that seems to be what the implication is. Seems a little misleading, or at very least deliberately vague.
@Prince David yeah. The game isn't very fun. It was remarkable at the time because it was literally an interactive cartoon, and lightyears ahead of anything else graphically. But it's not fun to play.
"The Game is coming" is not a phrase that "elicits some powerful and mixed emotions" in fans of George Martin or A Song of Ice and Fire. Is that an awkward "Winter is Coming" reference? Ugh. Awkward.
