    Break out the soft-touch white gloves, everyone: Microsoft has added purple and black to its lineup of Chrome Series controllers, both due for sale in the US in March. They'll retail for $55, with the black controller available only at Wal Mart and the Microsoft Store, and the purple only at Best Buy and the Microsoft Store. Microsoft launched the Chrome Series controllers in 2012. Remember, Xbox 360 controllers are not compatible with the Xbox One. [Image: Microsoft]

    When we're not busy ghostridin' the whip or gettin' that skrilla, we're making sure to accessorize with chromed out bling. We also spend quite a bit of time looking up how to awkwardly use terms from terrible rap songs.Given that, you'll understand our excitement this afternoon over Microsoft's announcement of chromed out Xbox 360 controllers. Better yet, said controllers feature the updated D-pad that Microsoft added in a new 360 controller back in 2010.As of now, the "Special Edition Chrome Series" wireless controllers will run $54.99 ($5 more than the usual wireless controller price) and are expected to be available at some point in "mid-May." Colors and availability vary by region, according to Major Nelson. Why anyone would want something other than what you see shining above, however, is beyond us.%Gallery-152030%
