Thanks for the link, that is a really nice pice of information.

np, there's also a lot of other good info on that site. considering it's a microsoft site, i think we can trust it, lol!

A rechargable controller with a life of 40 hours is a HUGE step up from today's controllers, inconvienantly needing AA batteries and lasting only 12-16 hours!

the best thing is, you can recharge it and still play! it plugs via an a/v chord to the xbox360.

at least that's the last thing i read.

What about the Wavebird? Two AA batteries and lasts over 100 hours. I've hardly changed the batteries in mine, and I use my Gamecube alot.

the 360 controller is going to do a lot more than what the gc controller did. more application=more juice sucked up.

Whoa....Wavebird does NOT last 100 hours....at least in my experiance. I've played my GC a ton as well and the life time that I've found it to be is around 20-25 hours.

Yeah, sorry, I do not think the Wavebird lasts 100 hours. Besides, the Xbox 360 will be rechargable. Now that is über-cool. Play 40 hours straight, push 'pause' hook up the charger and keep on playing. And I bet you could correspond the pause/recharge time with a bathroom break and snack run. Nice.

Do we have any info on the PS3 Bluetooth controllers and their capability, aside from the adult porn industry?

As far as I know the ps3 controller is ugly…very ugly. The thing looks like u can through it and it’ll come back. I think they forgot about the controller design in till the last week and had a first quarter art student make it, who was try to be innovative, and new nothing about gaming

And its blue tooth big deal the xbox360 probably works better any ways

I think the Bluetooth is just some other way to add on the known outrages price.

the xbox360s new controller is cool and all but i see myself playing halo2 with all the skulls on and fighting tatarus (the big boss guy) on legendary with the only check-point at the beginning at the of the level and the controller dies and i get killed while running to find the cord and i plug it in as fast as i can and my new xbox 360 blows up

It doesn't come with a recharge cable, the Play and Charge Kit IS the recharge cable.

You use the cord to recharge and then unplug it when its done. My best bet is that you'll have to use a the controller wired up to the X360 for about 3 hours when it first comes out of the box. Thats no problem for me anyways even though I prefer to sit far away from the TV.

my sugestion is charge it over night every night problem solved for me.

[TXSPheonix]

Do you guys not know about the play and charge kit?

You hook it to the top of your controller and it charges while you play.

You can aslo just use AA batteries for 30 hours of battery life

Or,

You can charge the battery pack on the back.

EDIT: Oops, didn't see the info sheet posted, I'm still a n00b

Official Play Time with out the charge kit.. 25 hours. non stop but i will still charge it every night.
