Voting is over and the people have chosen! It was a tough race, with Sjohn showing a tiny lead Saturday night, and Cody reclaiming it come Monday morning. From Cody's plea: "This is my really-really-need-to-be wireless setup; I don't have enough money for the wireless network adapter nor do I have enough money for a proper headset."
Despite having one of the more terse captions, Cody's video treatment really sold his fanboyish desparation. A dangerous web of wires, our crack-team of genetically-enhanced lawyers says we can, in no way, condone playing your 360 this way. For his efforts--or lack thereof--Cody will win the review copy of Turtle Beach's Ear Force X2 wireless headphones. It's befitting, in a way, that one part of his rig will be wireless, even if it's the more unlikely of the options. Somone get this guy a WiFi adapter, stat!
Congratulations Cody, and thanks to everyone who entered the contest. I now count myself amongst your ranks as, with the mailing off of Cody's much-deserved prize, I'll have relinquished my 360's sole form of audio output. Next-gen gaming on an HD monitor without sound? I know...pathetic.

how is that a pathetic setup? I could go grab a short Cat5 network cable and stretch my xbox too. This guy one a headset because he ddnt want to buy a $5 cable that would be 4 tims as long as that cable hes using now?

Congrats Cody, it was a close race, I thought the voting would have been over after a week, guess they went ahead and used the weekend also, oh well.
Thanks for this contest guys, it was fun, the comments were also fun, but now that it's over, I can't wait to see what comes up next, there were some amazing entries in this contest, I just want to see what people will throw into the fray on the next one.

Mike, he kept saying that he liked to be neat and didn't want a huge long cord going throughout his house. He left a lot of comments on why he wouldn't buy a longer ethernet cord, even though he could have bought a really long one and went around the door frames and what not, I guess he didn't like the thought of that.

Ouch, that A/V cord had ZERO slack...I love it. I was on the verge of going "long wire" for ethernet as well but the adapter seems to work pretty well wirelessly...sometime you just gotta plug it all in and play!
