360AXIS for your controller
If you’ve ever felt that you may be missing out on tilt functionality with the 360 controller, when the PS3 and Wii has it built in, then this is the new mod for you. One very clever guy has managed to make the 360 have a tilt function that is fully compatible with all the games. Videos after the jump.
As you can see above, the controller works amazingly well in the games demoed (Full Auto and Crimson Skies). It moves just as you would expect, but there does appear to be a slight time delay as he moves the controller. He has debunked such claims with another video posted below, where it clearly shows there is absolutely no lag whatsoever. Whatever your feelings about tilt controllers, it’s hard not to be impressed at just how well the guy has done. So well in fact that he is selling it on eBay, and at the time of writing the highest bid was $142.50 after 28 bids. This probably covers any costs he may have had, and may inspire him to build more.
Is a tilt function really necessary? No, which is why it would be nice if the mod had an On/Off switch, but it is very useful for flying games, and probably would work really well with Battlestations: Midway (the demo at least). If you want to play with this, I suggest you put in a hefty bid, and make sure you are from the US or Canada, since no shipping options are mentioned to other countries, which is a shame.

Thanks to Xanion, Predator GR, jimbrav and IMI for the submits.
wow…that looks really good. it would make playing halo a pain in the ass tho. an on/off switch would be nice if i were to buy one.
Very nice work. I bet MS are quite interested in him at the moment.
if he c an make that then it would be pis easy for MS too, hopefully they will implement this into a new batch of controllers, and as the article says with an on off switch too as that would be needed.
that is cool (damn i need a wii)
go to the toilet then! haha couldnt resist sory:(
Looks like it has too be a wired controller , and it sux that it removes the analog stick functions.
Great job getting it done tho. Looks like it works great.
this looks so fake
I want Wii controller technology on the Xbox 360..
one thing i just noticed…unless its rigged up to both thumbsticks, legacy controls arent compatable. if so, i wont be getting one. theres only certain games that would utilize this technology, which is why ms wasnt quick to jump on it. i mostly play fps’ anyways so this wouldnt be a must buy for me, at least not right away. marble blast ultra would kick ass with this…
i call a fake. notice the only thing making it “tilt” is a old xbox modchip lookin thing on the back of the controller. and, in video 1 he tilts the controller on a sharper angle and the car turns sharper, yet in the 2nd movie, when he turns it sharper (more of an angle) the little crosshair doesnt move faster?….weird. and not to mention in video one, the airplane game (not sure which one) there is a massive delay, but no delay in video 2. i gotta call BS.
Even though I really don’t care about motion sensors in controllers, it’s quite impressive work
mannnn! 4k that shyt, ain’t give shyt @ all.
And for those that don’t do that text nonsense:-
“Man. Fuck that shite, I don’t give a shit at all.”
anyway nat my cash!
xb360 is a well balanced system, without that crap.
