the thing that sucks is the new controllers use usb to connect to the console. so i can't use my old xbox controllers if the batteries die in the wireless controller. i should go out and purchase a play and charge kit

I heard that there will be an adapter for the old controllers to fit the USB ports...
I can't remember where from, but I work at EA, and a fair bit of weighty stuff is thrown around the office there.
We've got a few debug units in, but they haven't let us mere testers near them, and if they had, I wouldn't be allowed to utter a word of it, so meh, I guess I'll have to keep my mouth shut about them
