Controller Monitor Rev 2

I have completed a new style of my Xbox 360 Controller monitor, which now includes indicators for the analog sticks, providing even more data for playtesting.

Currently these controllers are being used for playtesting on Modern Warfare 2, the new Wolfenstien game’s multiplayer, and this particular prototype for Mass Effect 2.

For more information, videos and to order one for your own company’s playtesting please visit the product page. I plan to do a run of these if there is sufficient interest.

    Looks good Ben. I really liked the idea of the analog sensing leds that light up as you push the stick farther.

    [...] Ben Heck has unveiled his Xbox 360 Controller monitor which includes indicators for the analog sticks and provides even more data for playtesting. The setup involves a modified wireless controller and a display board and helps you videotape during the playtesting to use as a latency reference to the game itself. [...]

    Ben,

    In your earlier post you showed pics of how the controller connects to the leds, but do you have any pics of how you connected the wires to the buttons inside the controller in the first place?
