Here's another example of outstanding gamer creativity and workmanship. What appeared to be just another wooden coffee table soon became a wireless arcade joystick for the Xbox 360, that's after some serious mod work and a hell lot of wiring.

You gotta love the fact that our modder is a Street Fighter fan, using one of the game's themes for the video, and using the game to test his new plaything out. Now he can Shoryuken the crap out of people online while keeping his beer close by. Any chance he's gonna put it up on eBay? Wishful thinking.

For the video, simply follow the source link below.



Here's some other cool mods:

We just had a hardcore night of SF4 on PS3 and it was f'ing amazing...sooooo much better than a reg controller....only little prob is the base moves abit....so building it into a coffe table is perfect.....but he needs two controllers....

If you had ever set foot in an arcade than you would know how much better arcade sticks are for fighting games.....

You'd be saying how great it is if it were a PS3 stick.

I think he's more of a 360 guy than a PS3.

I think he meant by sitting down. You would have to lean forward to use the joy stick. At the arcade you stand most of the time or they have those high chair where you can sit and play.
