EXCLUSIVE: McFarlane 'Halo' Controller

Posted by Mike D'Alonzo - Friday, September 14, 2007 4:00 PM

Todd McFarlane is making controllers for Halo 3, and McFarlane Toys gave us an exclusive look at the art that will be on those controllers. Check out the pics below and see how they evolved from a sketch to a full-color experience. This is one of the cooler Halo tie-ins we've seen so far.

Check out the pics...

How awesome is that? Seriously? Why not check out the whole photo gallery of the Todd McFarlane Halo 3 line right now?

Posted by jman03 - Friday, September 14, 2007 5:34 PM
All of this Halo news is getting annoying, but I have to admit, this is freakin awesome. Better than the Halo 3 themed 360.

ok this looks cool but come on they are juicing everything they can out of this franchise i mean a car, mountain dew, a whole system and now a seperate controller

Posted by Vergil117 - Friday, September 14, 2007 7:27 PM
If I'm correct these controllers are coated in a special substance that makes them scratch proof. So yeah I'll get them just cause of that.

Posted by DeathOps - Friday, September 14, 2007 7:46 PM
Merchandise is one thing, I just don't want them to juice the games too hard. Halo Wars and maybe one more game should be all.

for all we know, halo could be the next mario series. how about halo golf, and oh you know where im going with this.the one game that id be looking forword to is "super mario wars". that'd be the bomb

Enough Halo is not even out yet and all I hear and see is Halo make it stop. September 25th is anti xbox/ halo day

Posted by Deathsaw - Friday, September 14, 2007 8:32 PM
Madmax92, I'm glad someone feels the same way. I don't even want halo 3. I'll still get it because I want to and stay away from a 60 dollar controller. I'd rather buy Halo 3.

I have the human one and it rocks! You PS3 fanboys should go scrap your knee and get dirt in it :)

McFarlane is a hack

Deathsaw: WHAT!!!! are you a f.uckin schkitzo or something?

or are you like 10 or 11?

Posted by flamingXbox360sHAHA - Friday, September 14, 2007 10:10 PM
ARE YOU FREAKIN SERIOUS??? Add that to your collection of other stupid things that all you halo fans just got suckered into buying. That will go perfectly with your halo themed xbox. Good thing the console itself is shit colored. How bout spending your money on something more worth it like the Hal 9000 Xbox 360 PROD T-shirt. Oh, and haha red ring of death!

Posted by Warheart1188 - Saturday, September 15, 2007 9:49 AM
Those controllers are already out. I've got the Spartan one and it kicks so much ass. It's actually better than the regular 360 gamepad.

Flamingxbox360sHAHA,

How, again, are we being "suckered" into buying? I like buying Mountain Dew quite often. So what difference does it make if I buy a Halo-edition MD?

Plus, I LOVE how think it's suckering JUST because it's Halo but when it's any other franchise (cough PS3 cough), it's perfectly fine.

Hypocrite noob.

Posted by freeway8989 - Saturday, September 15, 2007 10:20 AM
Plus, I need a new controller anyway. So, again, what difference does it make if I get this one.

when was the last time that ANYONE pressed a game this hard? a drink, a controller, a museum tour, a car, and a new piece of hardware that is Halo themed? yes, suckers indeed.

Posted by thepunch - Saturday, September 15, 2007 1:04 PM
god is this old news the news about the controllers came out when comic con was in progress and PEOPLE IT IS NOT WORTH BUYING trust me. the f ing controller is 60 dollars oh but wait it comes a with a little master chief figurine im sorry but it is just not worth it if you want to go waste your 60 bucks go ahead

Posted by luckydawg68 - Saturday, September 15, 2007 4:58 PM
@ urmomspleasuremachin

you'd like me to shit on your chest wouldnt ya? as for halo 3 being a goldeneye knockoff.... are you f.ucking serious? I guess that every game that involves shooting things from the first person is just a massive rip off then. you flaming idiot, go shove your n64 up your ass loser, im not even a halo fanboy but that was the dumbest comment ive ever seen.

Jawa_hero:

That's EXACTLY why people find Halo 3 advert.s so offensive: because it never happened to a video game. Again, it's COMPLETELY fine for it to happen to movies, but because a video game is new to it, people feel uncomfortable. Sony tried to press Spiderman 3 on you people and you accepted it gleefully. Why? Because you're used to it. But, when MS tries to push Halo 3, it's suddenly a crime on freedom of thought. Why? Because you are NOT used to it. Get real people, it shows that the industry is EVOLVING! It's no longer a niche market. It's expanding and becoming better. So get used to it. It's not going to get worse than what people do for movies. So stop exaggerating and thinking that a company is going to control your thoughts. It's pathetic and embarrassing.

Posted by freeway8989 - Saturday, September 15, 2007 6:16 PM
Second, advertising and merchandising are two different things. Advertisements try to create a desire whereas merchandising builds upon that desire. The controllers exist not to cause people to buy Halo 3. They exist because people ALREADY like Halo 3 and already intend to but it and want something extra to commemorate that want.

Plus, if your dull-witted enough to rush out and buy these things when you don't need them, then you're just a retard in general. I want these things, but because I NEED them.

Posted by freeway8989 - Saturday, September 15, 2007 6:23 PM
And why not make them Halo-themed? It doesn't cost me extra.

Also, is it true that MS is trying to exploit our desire for Halo 3? Yes. But I don't see why people object to this when HUNDREDS of companies have exploited your desire in the past for whatever thing it was.

Also, you have to remember that people ALWAYS have the ability to decide. The truly smart people are the ones who have the brains to realize if a product is worth buying. A sucker is somebody who rushes out and impulsively buys these things. But if you apply logic, then you aren't being manipulated. And the latter vastly outshines the former.

Posted by Fregory - Saturday, September 15, 2007 7:25 PM
yeah, but it's still over-hyped.

and by the way, freeway8989, rambling (no matter how valid your point) makes you sound like a jerk.

...but you still have a point.

Fregory,

Whoever thinks I'm a jerk for making a point deserves to go back to second grade, and probably Hell.

the comment was a while back, but the guy who said Todd is a hack is obviously oblivious to the talent that man possess whether you like Halo or not... i remind you of a little comic called Spawn.
