PS2 inside a 360

[RLuster88]

Ok so about a year ago my xbox 360 went *fart* and since i havnt really tried much esle besides wasting time trying to fix it with any ways i could. Ok so i got this idea, its totally like anti-Microsoft (but i love their OS lol) its to take a PS2 (slim or fat) and stick it in the 360 case, shell and all, and run from inside.

so far i can stick the slim in, run the fans at back with a 9V and shove a controller link in through the DVD slot haha.

but before i get too exited. Name the chances of taking a fat, flip it over, CD-Drive mined up on the 360's drive slot. and using a HDD mod to allow saves on the HD, and splice, compress, then feed to outside though old USB holes for controlers.

in the end - u plug a 360 in, just to have PS2 logo comeup on screen, in the ultimate proof that PlayStation PWNS ALL! haha - so any1 with some basic knowledge of the PS2's wiring and stuff lemme know if any of this is feasible before i hit the parts store online to spend money on this idea ha ha - thanks.

Exactly what is this supposed to prove? All this would do is give the system more insulation than it was designed for.

I'm gonna go with "not very possible at all" unless you've got some heavy ass experience with system coding and modding.

Not to mention the power and video ports would either have to be cut and replaced whole or wired to account for completely different standards, which I understand is a significant task on its own if you want a clean look there.

Why are you trying to combine components from two different machines. That's like saying "Hey, let's take the toaster and combine it with the microwave!"

Two different machines that are separate for a reason.

This seems impossible unless your Ben Heck. Someone had to say it xD. I will be interested if you do this however. The HD mod would be easy if it weren't for the fact that 360 HDD is formatted completely different to a PS2 HDD.

It's not really impossible like everyone else is saying, but it will require alot of work as well as some serious soldering skills. You'd have to use a slim as the innards for the fat are too tall for the 360 Chassis.

-Use USB extension cables and a HUB to setup the connections where they actually belong.
-I said HUB because you're going to need to run the HDD as an external USB, but removing it's original enclosure and putting it in the 360s HDD enclosure.
-Need some plastic molding skills to close up the excess holes (the original AC port will need closed off to keep dust out.
-You'll also need a dremmel for the disk drive so you don't have a hole where the drive would be. If you want to play hard copies of games, you'll need it to also make a flip top mod for the hard plastic casing.
-You'll need to make jumpers on the ps2 AC circuit board to bypass the power button, ground, and of course it's draw and move it to the respective places on the RF modulator from the 360 (which you'll need to remove the plug prongs from the back of it)

So before you actually go to do this, make sure you're capable otherwise you'll be wasting a fairly large lump of cash.

All that work and money just to make a silly fanboy statement.

I think that buying a new 360 would be cheaper lulz

Precisely how I felt. A fanboy statement that is shaky on its own to boot.

Yo dawg I heard you like gaming...

[chao666]

Heck, I'd buy the busted 360 off you, it'd work better than what you're trying.
