My first Xbox 360 case mod - Hardware & Software

[QUOTE=compwhizii;16279580]Is it just me or does pic 2 look kinda shopped.[/QUOTE] It's just you.

Here have a artistic rating, also how hard was it to solder new LED's on your ring of light? I'm curious because I'm thinking of doing something similar to this. (Led light mods and windows)[/QUOTE] Thanks. Do NOT solder individual LEDS using wires, buy some custom made LED array to save time, money, and most importantly, space.

[QUOTE=nubcakez;16279690] PS3s are not $600[/QUOTE] $500 now. the cheap ones are 400 still twice as much as the other two consoles.

Meh.. I like it to be dark when i play not alot of blue and red lights.. It distracts me.

The Ring of Light kinda looks like a Pokeball.

I don't see the purpose of why you'd want to see the inside of your 360 but it's still quite cool. Good job.

Quite cool actually.

[QUOTE=BananasGoMoo;16280144]$500 now. the cheap ones are 400 still twice as much as the other two consoles.[/QUOTE] Theres only one model of the PS3 still in production aside from the limited edition version that comes with Killzone 2 and MGS4. And you can get a PS3 for about 300$ if you know where to look. It's also getting a price drop end of this year.

Plus the PS3 Slim version that's rumored to be in production.

Did you do this with the cases I sold you?

[QUOTE=nubcakez;16276145]First of all, enough of the RROD stereotypes. I have several launch consoles from 2005 and none of them have ever gotten the RROD. Besides, new console have the same failure rate as a PS3 tbh. Second, if I do get the red ring, it will be obvious because three lights will be flashing[/QUOTE] The new ones are just as bad as the old ones. Mine ringed in 3 weeks.

[QUOTE=CowGuy;16290928]Did you do this with the cases I sold you?[/QUOTE] No. The cases you sold me are in minimum acceptable physical condition. [editline]03:11PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Caps lock;16287300]Plus the PS3 Slim version that's rumored to be in production.[/QUOTE] ... which will making modding even more impossible

[QUOTE=Aurora93-Alt;16305404]Why do you have [b][i]SEVERAL[/i][/b] consoles, then? :smug:[/QUOTE] Above person do have a point.

It's a nice mod in my opinion.

Heyu guiz i hown a pc so i mak fun of ppl cuz ther dum 4 having consolz. I own an Xbox 360. I've had it since 2006. Never 'ringed for me. I also own an okay pc and do some gaming/modding on there, and I'm going to be building one whenever I get off my lazy ass to do it. Just because someone owns a console doesn't mean you can come in and bash them for doing so instead of using their pc's to play VIDEO GAMES. I mean damn, it's entertainment. Stop being such elitists over something so feeble. Nice case mod.

consoles are PCs for retards and sheep who follow the crowd mouse and keyboard will always be superior, and if you still want to feel like a mong you can buy pads anyway

[QUOTE=reapaninja;16306180]consoles are PCs for retards and sheep who follow the crowd mouse and keyboard will always be superior, and if you still want to feel like a mong you can buy pads anyway[/QUOTE] Why? What's wrong with having something that you can simply turn on, sign in, and connect to others and play? I'm pretty damn sure that I'd rather play zelda on my n64 than with a mouse and keyboard. I'm pretty damn sure that I enjoy using my xbox 360 controller on my pc games than I do using my mouse and keyboard. I'm pretty damn sure that the xbox 360 has a fantastic game lineup, a ton of which AREN'T ON THE PC. You're such a pc bigot you don't even understand that your opinion isn't law. Tell me, please. How is a keyboard and mouse superior to a gamepad? Your statement wasn't really backed by logic. It was just backed by some more bullshit elitism that seems to be a plague on the internet. "consoles are PCs for retards" How? A console isn't comparable to a pc. It is especially not comparable with the intellect of its users. If you think that a person is stupid because they own a console, you're the retard here.

[QUOTE=Takoto;16307215]It's kinda true, you can get way more fun out of a cheap old pc than a current gen console.[/QUOTE] That's an opinion. And it's fine if you feel that way. But saying that people are stupid for playing something that is made for the entertainment of others on a certain piece of machinery is ridiculous.

Good mod there nubcakez, one of the best ive seen.

[QUOTE=Riot_police;16305445]Above person do have a point.[/QUOTE] I sell game consoles. I have mention this several times already [editline]06:06PM[/editline] [QUOTE=Thor667;16307330]Good mod there nubcakez, one of the best ive seen.[/QUOTE] Thanks a lot! Have a heart :3:

[QUOTE=BananasGoMoo;16280144]$500 now. the cheap ones are 400 still twice as much as the other two consoles.[/QUOTE] PS3: 80Gb 349.90 € :downs:

Pretty damn neat, although the 360's insides aren't the most attractive. Have an artistic rating.

awesome mod. you should paint half of it black. white goes with blue, black goes with red.

[QUOTE=BananasGoMoo;16280144]$500 now. the cheap ones are 400 still twice as much as the other two consoles.[/QUOTE] I paid $600 at launch and that's how much I (personally) value my PS3 at.

[QUOTE=nubcakez;16305326]No. The cases you sold me are in minimum acceptable physical condition. [editline]03:11PM[/editline] ... which will making modding even more impossible[/QUOTE] Really? What's wrong with them? They might of been damage during shipping.

Do the LED's make it faster?

Sent it in, they replaced the drive, that drive had the same error after a month, sent it in, they replaced it. Went solid for a while then bang, RROD. Sent that one in, haven't had a problem since. My friends 360 RROD'd and his friends 360 also RROD'd. Bullshit it's the same as the PS3.

[QUOTE=nubcakez;16276595]Bored. Besides, I can't cut metal because i don't have a dremel[/QUOTE] I find it hard to believe you cut that plastic without a dremmel tool. [img]http://d2k5.com/sa_emots/emot-geno.gif[/img]
