    Halo 3 Controllers and PGR 4 Vids

    So Xbox recently announced some new Halo 3 Controllers and Headset - you know, for all of you Halo 3 fanatics who don't already have the Halo Zune, wear Halo costumes, and just generally drool at all things Halo-esque.  KP I'm talking about you - yeah i saw that pic of your H3 Lair (learn who KP is here).
     
    I'm not a drooler myself, but i have to say i actually like that wireless headset deal.  Maybe it will grant me some nice sniper voodoo power so i can finally master one of those standing still head shots.  Or help me coordinate with comrades on the warthog. 
     
    Speaking of driving, if you like racing games check out the new PGR 4 snow and rain videos.  30% chance of drift on those slick tracks.  Me personally, not so much into the racing games (except Burnout, where you freakin crash cars lol) but the graphics look pretty cool - there's actual weather elements you've got to deal with ELEMENTS!
     
    *I am fully aware that this is Xbox propaganda.  If you don't like you need not read. I'm a Lackey, my loyalties are no secret.

    Red vs. Blue for Shadow Run?

    Looks like the guys at Rooster Teeth are at it again - this time with a new RedvBlue-like series using the hit Xbox/PC crossover game Shadowrun.  You know, nothing ever really seems to happen plot-wise with these videos (by the time you reach the end the protagonist is still in the same predicament), but somehow i still find myself laughing hysterically. 
     
    Maybe it's that I have serious solidarity with the guy stuck on the phone amidst heavy fire talking with a tech support agent trying to figure out how to get his gun un-jammed.  Sometime's RASing from home can feel a little like that.  It will be interesting to see how this mechinima develops.  If you haven't seen it yet, check out the First Episode: 1-800-MAGIC on Xbox.com.
