Single handed Xbox 360 controller

The amazing mind of Ben Heck has spun another wild concoction. The piece that caught the glare of many eye’s the first time was his Xbox 360 laptop. This time it’s his one handed 360 controller. Initially this sounds like a great idea, but after some more thought I don’t really see the practicality of it. It sure looks cool in that homemade kind of way though! What do you think?

He made it for a vet of the gulf war who has lost his other hand. The underside rests on the leg and will let him play games. That’s the practicality

The rest of the buttons are on the back or something, right? Because the last time I checked, you usually need the face buttons, triggers, shoulder buttons and the right stick

Can you lot not read? It was made for a vet who lost an arm in the Gulf! It’s been designed for a brave, brave person, I take my hat off to the guy who designed and the user.

I understood the way it’s supposed to work, but it looks like it would be extremely frustrating for it’s intended user. I do commend him for the reason of making it though. I didn’t want to force my opinion on anyone any more than I did. That’s why that read more link is there, right.

Whet Wurm, you sure a right though. I can’t believe I didn’t think of that.
