Yeah, I'll be buying this. Love that it's part of the design lab too, so I can add some grips and other stuff to it

Another time where I wish that Xbox controllers had a gyroscope, because goddamn this controller looks clean.

This may be a "buy" for me. Also, the Rewards points with the option of dropping them right into the support organizations is awesome.

I actually really like that design, that's cool. I need a new controller so might have to grab this one.

And that Obsidian shirt is great. I like how it subtly incorporates the other flag stripes in the background.

Ball's in your court, Sony and Nintendo.

I don't love the design, but I love a good cause and a limited edition item. If I can put rubber grips on it in the design lab, I'm more than sold.

I was really impressed by the lengthy post on Xbox wire about all the Pride stuff they have going.

Though, one question I had that for the LGBTQIA+ community is if it's time to retired "women's shirt" in favor of something more neutral/inclusive (contoured fit or something like that)?

A total of 170k feels like a small sum coming from MS. very specific amount too, does it mean anything I'm not aware off?

Controller is cool, would be awesome if the profits would go towards organisationa too.

While I'm glad to see more Pride acceptance in our culture and do like the design, I question what corporations are getting out of it.

The Xbox division had over 16B in revenue; a donation of $170k is nothing to their budget. It would be great if they stepped up and donated money that really demonstrates their values.

Only 170k? Feel like MS could've donated a lot more, with being one of the richest companies and all.

Is this the one they had last year that wasn't for sale? YEP.

Wonder if it has the back too.

Finally! I was sad it wasn't for sale last year. Day 1 this year.

Edit: Oh, different design. Still want to get it.

Certainly a big change from the days when saying you were gay on Xbox Live was a bannable offense.

That looks pretty sharp.

While they should donate more, I think (just like with all companies), they need to prove they are doing something besides profiting off of pride.
