never played the game. but i've seen stuff on it. obviously thats not the kind of controller set up you can just plop your ass on the couch and play. so making a stand would make sense.
so good job on taking some initiative to build one.
and sure, i can agree that it would be real kickass to shape it up and paint it.
what would make it all kickass is to have a bigscreen to play on. would seem a lot more immersive.
as for comments for it being "gay", yeah, immature terminology. and for comments on it being expensive? considering many here spend more than what the xbox costs modding it, which could include the costs of chips, harddrives, paint, tools, extra cases, ect, thats a pretty lame comment as well. people spend their money on what they want.
