Default Custom faceplates

What if you could make your own custom faceplate for the Xbox 360. Not for your sig but for real.

I talked to the gamestop guy about custom faceplates, and he was leaning towards that possibility

I'm sure some web sites will offer custom made faceplates. You can get custom made system cases right now. I'm sure a face plate wouldn't be that hard.

Found this at TeamXbox.com

Xbox 360: Customizable Faceplates?

By: César A. Berardini - "Cesar"
May. 9th, 2005 6:39 am
TeamXbox.com

It has been rumored for a long time that the Xbox 360 will feature customizable faceplates similar to those found in recent cell phones. These rumors were backed up with some convincing evidence when, speaking to MCV, Allard made an allusion that the next-generation Xbox would come in various forms:

"We have ways. We have ideas. Look at cell phones. You can have snap-on faceplates, you can change the skin and the batteries, and you can change the ringtones. I think we need to have a global foundation, and then personalize within region."

Now, a new image released by the Gamem8ker at OurColony.net offers another hint about the possibility of Xbox 360’s ability to incorporate custom faceplates.



The picture shows five Xbox 360 power buttons surrounded by different themes. Interestingly, five rings are usually used to symbolize the continents, like the five rings of the Olympic Games. (Although there is no standard definition for the number of continents).

The first time I saw this new image, I immediately thought about my cell phone, the Sony Ericsson Z600, which has removable covers for you to change the look of the phone. All this definitely backs up the rumor of customizable faceplates for the Xbox 360.

Everything has a customizable faceplate anymore. Even as old as the idea is, I think I will still have to get or make one. Possibly the one you see below! (Thanks RabidCheetah)

I know "Night Owl", "Gee", and "TurkeyRap", have been doing them. There may be others, though one of them should be able to make you one. Just ask them, and tell them what you want.
