NEW 360 CONTROLLERS?????????

Rumor: New 360 controllers feature revised d-pad [update]

Update:

D-pad rumors are

cleared up

and it looks like we aren't getting an improved d-pad anymore.

In

rumor

news coming straight from the Leipzig Games Convention floor,

Eurogamer

is reporting that Microsoft has plans to release new Xbox 360 controllers featuring a revised d-pad.

Eurogamer heard about the d-pad revision from a third party publisher who confirmed that the new controllers will look exactly like the current model, but with 32 direction support. We're also told that the Games Convention booth for Konami's

Pro Evolution Soccer

is using the new controller and Capcom's

Street Fighter IV

will supposedly support the new d-pad as well. Eurogamer

posted pictures

of the revised d-pad controller which is coincidentally the new green controller set to release next month. Does that mean the new

green and red controllers

are the rumored to be revised controller models with improved d-pads? We aren't exactly sure, so we'll wait for Microsoft to comment.
