Re: xbox

re shape an xbox????
only way you can cut down the size of an xbox by any margin is to chip it,run a no DVD drive bios and run the games exclusivly from the hard drive.

as for fitting it,where do you mean?it will go in the boot fine.

nothing like plain english is there?

well if you want to make it smaller then ive listed your option.i would have a larger hard drive in the car anyway as its easier than carrying discs plus you can have the xbox tucked away more.
removing the dvd drive is the only way to really drop the size.
since i dont know the glove box dimensions i cant really say about the fit but i doubt it will fix even without a dvd drive

Re: xbox

could you not store the xbox in the boot and wire up a dvd drive, controller ports and power buttons in to the glove box?

Re: xbox

been done before.i'll see if i can find the pics
honestly split screen games are not much cope on the small screens. a large hard drive is so much easier,with a chipped box you can do everything from the screen bar turning it on. a modded power switch and a dash power switch would do that.
wireless controllers may even work through to the boot

if you do it with the 360 instead you then have 20GB hdd and wireless control pads! no need to modify as much then and could even put it in the boot.

and you cant rip originals to the hard drive????? if your like me you will have a core choice of games you always go back to and those live on the hard drive.as does the full collection of N64 roms(okay technically pirated but i have an N64 and loads of games as well
not only games on the hard drive,you can rip your dvd's,xvids etc on there as well.
handy for photo storage as well
