Little brothers beware the Xbox Security Kit

by Richard Mitchell { Jul 31st 2009 at 6:00PM }

You know how your little brother is always totally absconding with your Xbox 360 and making an ass of himself on Xbox Live, thus banning you from teh Haloz and Gears of Warz? Well, now you can keep your console under lock and key, literally, thanks to the Xbox Security Kit from NewPCGadgets.com. Utilizing steel plates, some cable and a padlock, this baby will make sure your 360 stays put. Of course, it's only as effective as whatever you anchor it to, but we're sure you can figure something out (we suggest a Bengal tiger).

If you want one of your very own, it will set you back $30 (tiger not included).

Sorry, I can't buy something from a website that says that I should look at the "Product Photo's." An apostrophe does not make something plural... D:

Hmm, I thought you were getting at "Product photo's" not being right but I can't tell. It is, btw brah.

What's stopping my brother from getting on my xbox?

so he can't move it now?
This is something hotels could employ in order to keep them where they are...

Could be useful, but only if you have a sufficiently immovable object within your home and close enough to the TV to be worth it.

Sounds more applicable to have one of these in a college dorm or apartment where you sometimes can't trust those roommates friends or their parties

Why bother? My fist are enough. Or you could use the Clint Eastwood technique: "Hey punk, where do you think you're going with MY 360?"

the hard drive (the most important component - where all the stuff is) is still completely defenseless...

It looks like they just photoshopped a steel cable and a generic padlock into a standard pic of a 360.

MS needs to make it possible to put a password on your profile to stop others from accessing it. What this company is doing doesn't stop them from getting on it and using your profile.

You can, it's just a weird combination of clicks in the controller but it's sort of a "password".

I think the password only stops you from accessing Xbox LIVE too, you can still use the profile and access system files unfortunately. Also, if you use the bumpers for your passcode, you won't be able to use your profile on an original Xbox (For some reason, the bumpers don't map to the Black or White buttons).
