Microsoft Unveil a New controller - WIth association with Nike, i present you...

Xbox 360 Controller Shoes
by Matt Gibbs

Everyone knows about Heelys right? The shoes with mini wheels in them to let you skate along... well the same company has revealed their newest shoe creation, and it includes a Xbox 360 controller. Kotaku sums it up pretty nicely really:

I can't figure out which I find more disconcerting. The sheer overwhelming fuglatude of these shoes or the fact that just don't make any sense what so ever. What the hell was going through their minds when they came up with this?

I mean the complete stupidity of this idea makes me question the company's success with the Heely. Was it just pure luck? Do these guys have two buckets, one filled with shoes and the other with objects and then just pick one from each bucket and make things with them

I really hope this is a joke. Otherwise....,....um...

...,...um...

...hmm....

...um, no comment.

awesome. Now i can go to a friends house, not worrying about having to bring one of the old controllers, and i can just take my shoe off and start playing.

" fuglatude "

That about sums it up.

Needs more RROD.

Also, the MS fanboys will lap it up like cats to milk.

ok....ok

ok....wait....

ok...let me get this straight....these guys have created a shoe that is also a fully functional 360 controller? is that right?

i mean i can understand a company trying to use the xbox brand to promote there shoes by making a themed shoe, so to speak. if thats the case here then more power to em.

but a fully functional controller...in a shoe? wha? sounds pretty daft to me.

still it might be so daft that it may just work :P.

best invention EVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!

IMA BUY 4 PAIRS!!

This is pretty sad, almost makes me want to never play games again knowing that if things like this can occur, imagine the road the gaming industry is going to take..

Pfft... Gamers don't run. They are heavy, overwieght losers, sweating in their mom's basements and probably don't even wear shoes.

...

I joke.

sanitize your shoes before you decide on using it then.

How exactly would you hold that if you had let's say a size 12 foot?

EDIT: UK size, i forgot different countires had different measurements :P

ok....ok

Lemming: Go play LAIR or something like that LOOOOLL!!

Me: Go play Halo with your shoe.

It works!!! :D:D wait wait.. what if someone got a really big foot?:shock::lol:

saw them shoes on TXB forums few days ago :lol: lame tbh

that must be a joke. it won't work as a 360 controller, no triggers and only 1 analog. it might also be meant just for show, non functioning.shoeman12

walking around with 1 analogue dangling off your shoe :lol:

Its a shoe! its a Xbox 360 controller! and they have merged! THE XSHOEBOX CONTROLLER!!!

least the playstation 3 shoes look a lot better

As if gamers didn't smell funky enough.....now they want you to use your shoe as a controller? That's not only stupid but this could be bad when people with kids get infections from playing with their friends "controller"......that just happens to have athlete's foot or some kind of fungal infection. People would really touch the bottom of their shoe.....have they seen what kids walk through? How much dog **** and trash does everyone walk through. They want kids to be touching that crap.

Obviously this is a joke because there is no way this can be a viable shoe and controller at the same time.
