For the game "Steel Battalion" for the XBOX, this is the REQUIRED controller you have to buy. Insanity for consoles

(yes, I know the pic is from E3 2k2)

I thought that was the $100 controller for use with mech assault for x-box. They do have a version of the game that is packaged with the controller. check www.gamespy.com for details, i don't have the link in front of me.

That controller and Steel Batallion are only sold as a combo pack and it goes for almost $200 (Canadian)

I'm not too into the mech style games, but the controller game setup looks really cool. I'll probably pick it up just to see what the game is like. $200 is a bit to be spending on a game, but who knows...maybe it'll be worth it.
