I don't normally go for special edition peripherals but I had to get myself one of these, it looked so good. Works in much the same way as a standard controller with a few minor differences.
There are two,
a) The transforming D-pad. To be honest I'm not sure why it needed to be changed or whether this change actually improves anything. As far as I can tell it works exactly the same and feels the same. It's not really a selling point to me.
b) The sticks have a different rubberised bezel. Instead of a smooth surface with a few dots on the rim to help keep your thumbs on the sticks they have a lip that is a big improvement over the previous design. It helps grip massively. The old ones would wear those dots down very quickly & I can see these lasting a lot longer.
Only the front face is chrome, the back and area around the microphone port are both standard black edition. So don't go expecting the entire thing to be chrome.
The blue model is slightly darker than it appears in the picture. Shall post my own photos to show this.

...I had received it.
I bought this controller along with the red chrome variant, pre ordering in May.
I received the red chrome on release day. The blue chrome controller is still to be dispatched. As I write I do not even have an estimate.
Reading a few other reviews posted, it seems I'm not alone in not having this controller delivered.
Has amazon over-sold it's preorder stock or has it received little stock??...I wonder...
The red version controller of this is excellent, I expect the blue version (if it ever arrives) to be of similar quality.

We bought the Star Wars X-box 360 and as it came with a gold controller, nee C3PO we looked for an R2D2 lookalike (or as much as you can with a hand controller). The two boys we have love both and friends are genuinely convinced it came with the Star Wars X-box 360 so everyone is happy.
