People have been doing that for years with tv remotes next to their hottub. Give me a real waterproof 360 controller so I can plant my lazy butt in the hottub for an evening of GRAW and I'm all over it!
The video is dumb funny, but the idea is actually a good one. I dont own a pool, so I would never buy it, but I see it being a good idea for pool owners. What better way to use that new poolside wireless TV you just bought then connected to an xbox 360, playing with wireless controllers. Also good for hottubs like mentioned above.
Brilliance! I don't know what you guys are complaining about; It's not supposed to be a practival solution for water-resisitant high-definition gaming, it's an excuse to stuff some expensive hardware in some plastic bags and splash around!
Nice to see the Live Vision camera release dates didn't warrant a post from you guys...
Also, why am I seeing more 360 news on Joystiq lately than on here? Isn't the point of this blog as an off-shoot to take those "double" stories and post them here too?
I agree. This blog is definitely headed the wrong direction. I have nothing against humor, but I also expect a little bit more meaningful content in between these kinds of posts.
#12 Hey I'm from Cali dumbass....but you have to admit that was pretty stupid wasting $100 like that...Feel sorry for the controllers lol Gives New meaning to the word ADULT OWNED....

What do you do if you accidently splsh water onto your 360? I don't think that they would replace it for just being that stupid.

Unfortunately, there isn't a screen out there large and visible that can be read in direct sunlight.
