Mad Catz to Publish Xbox 360 Games

Mad Catz reports that they have signed a publisher license agreement with Microsoft Xbox 360. That essentially means they can now publish games for the console. Since they already announced that their upcoming game, War Wings: Hell Catz will show up on the platform it’s not such a big piece of news.

But what this license also means is that they could do publisher duties for other games as well now instead of just their own games under development. Since this is a new direction for Mad Catz, software that is, there will probably be many more such announcements as they work to expand their operations.

The good news for gamers is that the games they publish, could have some pretty great interface with Mad Catz gear as I imagine the goal would be ultimately to tie hardware to the software to make for better controls which means a better gaming experience overall.
