I prefer the normal black one. The crystal one looks like some piece of cheap 70s memorabilia. IMHO of course

Exactly my point... The clear case is nothing new for Microsoft.... When they sent out Development Xboxes to game developers some 4years ago they were all in the Clear cases....

Somebody has probably found surplus covers in a store room and thought, 'hold on we could ship these to the public'..... LOL...

According to that article, the package includes two controllers. Good to see that they're giving something additional for the extra tenner it's going to cost.
