XBox Controller with A/C

KornNut · 01-10-2005, 03:38 PM

This is no joke.

A friend of mine had an XBox controller that had air conditioned handles (so that your palms dont get sweaty from the long hours of playing).

He had bought it at a Sharper Image for 50 bucks.

Does know of where I can find one? I've tried a few major retail stores.

I have no idea why I was so stupid enough to go from shop to shop without even trying ebay or google.

Have you tried this product or did you only just do a google search?

I tried a different style(different brand as well) controller a couple months ago that also had the A/C

It was a "FPS controller" making it so you never have to take your thumbs off of the analog sticks. The A/C didn't seem to do a lot though... but my hands don't sweat too much anyway.

i acually kind of like the conroller, even though it may not do much it still feels good on your hands. Its just a fan btw, if thats what you mean by air conditioning.
