Bethesda Highlights: Dishonored Controller, LEGO Pipboy 3000

Posted on April 5, 2013

For Bethesda's regular around-the-web round-up today, they spotted a few cool devices that we thought deserved attention: A modified Xbox 360 controller (they can be adapted to PCs, of course) in the theme of Dishonored and a LEGO Pip-Boy 3000SI.

Let's start with the Pip-Boy (or Personal Information Processor), a tribute to Fallout 3's arm-bound equipment: Designed by Simon "Si-MOCs" Liu and posted to Flickr, his LEGO creation features a fully-functional display, FM radio, LED backlighting that can be manipulated with LEGO knobs, and audio from Fallout's in-game radio.

The video demo can be found here.

The Bethesdateam also spotted Artist Devin Smith's custom Dishonored Xbox 360 controller, complete with custom paint, meshing, gold highlights, LED-backlit logo, and more. Here are a few photos of that (and more found on his site):

What do you think? Know of any other cool game-based modifications that we could share? Or case mods, for that matter?
