thundercats, ho! a custom xbox 360!

thundercats xbox 360 custom

I’m not sure there’s much I can say about this Thundercats Xbox 360 that it doesn’t say for itself. I mean, sure, I can throw some adjectives around, but I propose instead a moment of silence, in which we all look about the might of this design (and possibly despair).

modern warfare on the xbox 360 (literally)

tb-mw2xbox

Modding master EvilDan is the only person who would dis this Modern Warfare 2 mod. On his deviantART page, he says he’s not thrilled with it. Why? Beats me. Must be a case of maker’s melancholy.

Yeah, see, while this isn’t quite as elaborate as some of EvilDan’s mods, it’s still pretty incredible, with that peekaboo…

yes, a brutal legend cake (already)

brutal legend cake

Okay, okay, I know Brütal Legend is apparently short and all, but it only came out a week ago! One week–and already, someone’s made a damn cake for it. Listen, guys. The bakers are making the rest of us look incredibly lazy. We’ve got to do something about it (right after we gaze upon this…

pinkified xbox 360 controller

custom paint pink xbox 360

As far as custom controller go, this particular project isn’t loud (though yeah, bright), it isn’t overdone, and it isn’t sparkling with a bank of flashing lights… and that’s probably why the final effect is so entirely sleek and professional.

get hydrophobia in slow drips or in one big flood

tb-hydrophobia

Hydrophobia doesn’t really sound like something you’d want, really–water is important, after all, and fearing it is bad–but when it’s in the form of an multiplatform game? Well, that may be more palatable, particularly when it looks like this.

halo casemod for elites only [xbox 360]

halo case emblem xbox 360

What’s as bright as a plasma grenade stuck to your face? This Halo casemod, that’s what.

This spiffy custom model puts the official Halo Xbox 360 to shame. Not only does it glow (always a plus), but that’s one of the armor emblems from the game. I can’t tell from his signature on the Ben Heck forums,…

load your shotguns: zombie apocalypse descending on xbla and psn

zombie apocalypse xbla xbox 360 psn dlc

Any good zombie apocalypse is all about survival, so a game that’s actually named Zombie Apocalypse isn’t likely to be about picking daisies. This week’s downloadable co-op experiences promises gore, guns, and most importantly, zombies. Loads of ‘em, and all ripe for the slaughter.

Things are simple here. You’ve got four characters (why does that seem…

going commando with modern warfare 2 peripherals

modern warfare 2 xbox 360 joystick by mad catz

I’m not sure if slouching back in a chair playing Modern Warfare 2 in front of a television or computer screen is the sort of activity that requires camouflage, but who am I to argue with the video game peripheral gurus at Mad Catz, who have taken it upon themselves to develop a full line of…

puzzles, platforms, and parties in trine [ps3]

tb-trineps3

There’s a common theme in gaming that seems to revolve around parties–intrepid bands of heroes who end up together on an epic quest to save the world, and maybe enjoy a delicious sandwich or something along the way. Trine, previously-PC, now available for PS3, actually explores a little of that party concept in this scrolling…

gears of war controller

If you’re going to go custom, you might as well go all the way with it–at least, that seems to be the philosophy this modder embraced for this Gears of War-inspired Xbox 360 controller. Not content simply to slap on a custom design, velocitti added the franchise’s logo and brightened up the blood-red skull with…

not so much feelin’ this xbox 1080 portable concept

xboxportablepreview

Kotaku’s Owen Good likened this concept to Blaster from Transformers. Personally, I’d go with a “V-Tech” comparison, or maybe even “LeapFrog.” You know what I’m talking about – something that my 5-year-old sister (and I do have one) would use to help learn her letters, something big and shiny with oversized plastic buttons.

Something decidedly…
