Destroyed beauty: Gears of War case mod

by Richard Mitchell { Aug 4th 2008 at 5:30PM }

Remember the creepy Xbox 360 alligator case mod? Creator dfw monkie is back again with a brand new mod and this time it's actually related to an Xbox 360 game. The game in question is Gears of War and dfw monkie has put together a very impressive mod. The mod features raised textures and a glowing Gears of War logo. The only feature we think we would have trouble adjusting to is the glowing red ring of light. How will you know when the Xbox 360 is broken? Will you get the Green Rings of Death? Check out a video of the console in action after the break.

[Thanks, Luay S]

This looks stupid.
The Alligator mod on the other hand is awesome.

Agree'd Destroyed beauty is a perfect name for this mod

Rofl, I agree. I wouldn't be surprised if this was a joke. It looks like he just dumped a bunch of brown clay on it and didn't even use some sort of stencil or stamp.

I'll pass.

Would've looked a lot better with a black and red paint scheme

Looks Horrid

How will you know when your 360 is broken? Well I assume that it wouldn't work anymore. I don't need 3 lights to tell me that. Though, for any other combination of lights, I hope that they would be green. But if he has the 360's to spare for modding, chances are a Red Ring isn't going to bother him too much.

Hmmm Chocolate cake, its okay but may of looked cooler if it was done with metal and stuff.

What a dumbass. That will heat up in 2 seconds. Expect the rrod err grod soon

Lima @ Aug 4th 2008 9:11PM

Actually, It wont overheat, because hes not blocking the ventilation on it on the 360...

Anthony Graham @ Aug 4th 2008 8:23PM

With that huge hole in the side, I don't think you'll have to worry about overheating. You'd probably smell everything toasting under all that bondo.

hey whats up guys...asking about the error light ..I changed them to orange ...and I dont think it will rrod because I have upgraded fans plus thats a screen vent that the skull sits on ...and im not really worried if I did get the rrod because I fix xbox's
