14 DAY TRIAL // Just as we've finished discussing about the Limited Edition Ozzy Osbourne AG RiffMaster Guitar Controller, this was the first thing we stumbled upon: Xbox 360 Arcade Controllers. The screenshots we've made available below speak for themselves, as this is, in the simplest possible way of putting it, an arcade gamer's dream come true.
The respective Arcade Controllers are meant for use with the Xbox 360 system from Microsoft, but also for PC. These authentic control panels are for both single and 2-player gameplay, featuring authentic identical controls to those used on old arcades such as the Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat, and Galaga machines.
"Xbox 360 gamers have a wide variety of classic arcade games to play, but until now there hasn't been a high-quality, stick with the authentic controls that hard core gamers demand" Says Ed Farias, Owner of Arcade-In-A-Box. "Our goal was to design and deliver a product for the gamer who wanted the most elite, most authentic, and most thrilling Xbox 360 arcade experience possible."
