You've seen Ben Heck's homemade gaming devices featured here a lot, and there's a reason for it: Adam Frucci loves him. Which is why he slathered much praise on the hardware modder in this Reuters profile. What would you want to know about the guy that turns two handed controllers into one handed ones? How about that he used to work for a sign-making business and doesn't actually play a whole lot of games, despite the love he gives to the accessories. [Reuters]

"doesn't actually play a whole lot of games,"
... which would explain why so many of his mods are impractical for serious gaming.
@dantaylor08: Yet still more practical than 95% of Yanko's ideas.
i don't remember any of yahko's ideas so I cant argue/agree with you.
evilcontrollers.com Actualy practical, undetectable mods, Mostly amazing button relocation so you never have to take your fingers off the stick etc.
Good writeup. I recall seeing a video tour of his basment on YouTube awhile back. The man is quite the artist.
One handed controller? So what are you suppose to do with your other ha.... Oooooohh.
Ben Heck is a God among men.
@ripfire4: I don't know what games you are playing, but I don't think Halo or Mario Sunshine should have that... um, sort of effect on you.
