Combining A Crystal And A Halo Le....
« on: August 07, 2004, 11:35:00 AM »

Okay...

I got my Crystal in the mail yesterday.

I assembled it, it looks freaking awesome.

But wait a minute, I had an idea...

What if I used every part of my Halo LE on the case, except I used a crystal top...

Would that be cool looking, or no?

I've got a blue CC on the jewel, and blue LEDs for my chip and my power/eject lights...

I like how the LEDs look on the Halo, but the CC by far looks better on the crystal.

What are your thoughts?

EDIT: here are pics:

What is the consensus?

I'm not enjoying switching the innards in and out in and out, but I probably will do it again.......

It would be cool to do, anyway....

I put the case together, it looks like a really cool debug/dev kit or something.

I may have to do this...

i wouldn't leave it that way. it honestly doesn't look that great. either case by itself is awesome, but together it almost looks like a blue car with a red door and green hood from the junkyard.

rofl. I dunno. It's starting to grow on me. My mom and my brother are both saying it doesn't look good, but I'm really liking it. Uh oh....

I like how the silver jewel matches with the Halo text and the XBOX on the front.

Oh, and since the front panel is clear, the LEDs light it up.

It's pretty dang cool.

Well, maybe you guys are right, but this thing is really growing on me....

dont combine cases! u take 2 overpriced(beautiful) cases and combine them to make 2 overpriced(ugly) cases! hey its just my opinion but i would just keep the halo case and give me the crystal ill even take it off ur hands for FREE! :beer: let me know!

I don't really like how they look either. I think maybe a crystal and a smoke Le would look better but even at that it would still look weird.

Well I kinda Like it, sure it is like a Red Car with Yellow doors, but its interesting to say the least and its an eye catcher just like a Red car with Yellow doors.  Looks good to me but what does the other Xbox look Like?

Put the clear front on too, then the back would only be green  :beer:

I think it would "balance" it...
