Bought a 360 controller, need advice

manveruppd · 18 Jan 2012 at 14:00

The place was advertising them as the 2011 controllers, the ones with the new-style d-pad, but I'm not sure if this is the case. How can I tell if it's the new or the old controller?

Update for photo, can anyone say for sure?

Hmm... looks like I got the old one. Damnit...

Gaaah! Annoyed! Got it from the rainforest place, it CLEARLY said "2011" on the listing, surely that should have implied it's the new one! :mad:

it's not revisions the dates on the rainforest place are normally just the dates they get the shipment/public release dates (next to product). confusing sometimes especially with some of there DVD's

there is only 3 gens of 360 controls official ones anyway.

Probably, but it's not my fault if they dug up an old batch of 3-year-old controllers from a warehouse in Rangoon. I expected to get one of the new ones, so I've emailed them to say they've sent me the wrong product and I want a replacement. It might not have been their intention to mislead me but it happened cause they didn't know that the product they were selling underwent major revisions and the date might be relevant, it was their responsibility to know this.
