One-Handed Xbox Controller Mod

Ben Heck is at it again! This time with a refined version of his one-handed controller mod for the X360


Quote:
Though Ben's still hard at work at the modular "Access" one-handed controller to be sold by eDimensional, he's certainly not frittering away that free time of his. The latest and greatest mod by Ben Heckendorn is a refined version of his right-handed Xbox 360 controller. As opposed to the one-size-fits-all modularity of the Access, his one-handed controllers puts all the buttons easily within reach and places the right analog stick at the base of the controller -- you play the game by moving the analog stick against your leg. The new version has slimmed down the design considerably and spruced up the aesthetics -- thought the inclusion of a PS3 d-pad could be seen as sacrilege to some.
I wonder how easy it is to use that? The weight and playing with the bottom joystick with your leg might be a challenge and tire out your arm, but what the hell! It's a Ben Heck design so it must be awesome.

That's nuts, couldn't imagine playing CoD4 or any FPS that way. It is a good invention for the handicapped though.

You could also rest your arm on a table or something and use the table instead of a leg for that 2nd analog. This guy has some serious ingenuity.

Agreed. When I first saw it I thought you used your pinky finger for it. And for fps's I think that joystick would be find for just moving foward and backwards.
