New Xbox 360 Controller Design Announced

Major Nelson released a video showing the new Xbox 360 controller that is slated for November 9th.  It sports a newly improved D-Pad and new more comfortable triggers, as well as newly colored face buttons..  The D-Pad twists and becomes an actual D-Pad instead of the disc based pad of the current design.  The new controller will sell in a Play And Charge Kit for $64.99.  It remains to be seen how well it performs, so I'll reserve judgment until I get my hands on one.

Take a look at the video below and let us know what you think in the comments or on the forums.

Quick edit:  The video with Major Nelson doesn't show it well, so here is a closeup of the new D-Pad in both positions.
