    Gaming Suitcase for 360 Travellers


    http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/20/gaem ... ntly-trav/

    Schlepping your Xbox 360 around in your carry-on is a hardly ideal solution for platinum-level frequent fliers. Not only does it take up a significant portion of your roller, but once you get where you're going there's no guarantee that your hotel's wood-paneled tube will know what to do with your high-end gaming machine. Enter the GAEMS Portable Console Gaming and Entertainment System, which carries not only an Xbox but also a 15-inch, 720p LCD in the lid, and speakers to boot. Flip open your console and you're good to go, though we're wondering whether there's room in there for the power brick too. We do know that your controllers will not fit, which seems like an unfortunate design choice if you ask us. The GAEMS suitcase ships sometime before the end of the year for around $250, and yes there are PS3 and new Xbox 360 versions coming too.
    Not bad for $250 IMO. I won't be buying one though.

    That's looks like a cool idea and all but looks like dude made it himself.

    yeah he did make them himself and he did a very fine job. The difference in this as opposed to the ones like TLoG linked are that these are dismantles systems, placed inside of custom casings. What that means is even if you have a system already, if you wanted to this guy to build you one it would cost you the price of a new console plus the cost of the additional housing parts, screen, and labor. Still looks really cool though

    Gaming is staying up 'til 3am to earn a trophy that isn't real.......BUT IS
