If you have enormous hands and a love for all things Halo, boy, has Halo Fest got a treat for you.

Answering fan questions on NeoGaf, 343 Industries’ Frank O’Connor mentioned the studio is trying to get hold of some original Xbox controllers and rejig them for use with Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, as a special treat for attendees of Halo Fest.

Only about six will be made, by experienced controller customisers, and will later be auctioned off for charity.

Halo Fest runs August 26-28, as part of PAX Prime in Seattle. Get more information here.

The first Xbox controller, called the Duke, was about the size and shape of a full-grown grizzly bear.

Plenty of people considered this an excellent thing, but I can barely get my abnormally differenthands around the much smaller and lighter Xbox 360 controller. I will never understand you.

Thanks, Kotaku.

Damn only six? I was hoping for a limited print run during the holiday season so I could pick one up.

I've got a couple of dukes in the cupboard, is there a way I can get them working on my 360? I don't mind paying for an adapter.

Lol damn no thanks!

I stuck with that behemoth until the 360 came out and now I just don't know why I didn't switch. I guess because I already had four and rigged one up to play on my PC. Now if I use it I hate it.
