The Xbox 360's red/black wireless gamepad will apparently be a GameStop-exclusive and retail for $69.99. At cause for the mark-up over standard-issue $50 wireless controllers is the inclusion of a black Play & Charge Kit, which is otherwise available for $20. Microsoft has yet to officially announce the controller and has not returned requests for comment as of press time.
The black and red model is the latest hue of official stand-alone Xbox 360 controllers, which have also been offered in red, green, blue, and pink. Microsoft also released controllers with custom graphics for Halo 3 and is currently offering a green controller with Halo 3: ODST graphics, as well as assorted other colors through various promotions.
