ConsoleTuner Titan One Controller Adapter: Mix, Match & Mod

We’ve featured a few specialized hacks and adapters that let you use a different controller on one gaming platform. But ConsoleTuner’s Titan One adapter might be able to fulfill several of your controller needs at once – even the ones you never thought you had. For starters, it lets you use an Xbox One, PS4, Xbox 360 or PS3 controller with any of those other consoles, such as plugging in a DualShock 4 on the Xbox One.

But thanks to its programming software and mod community, the Titan One can do so much more. It can even let you play with Wii controllers or the ol’ mouse and keyboard combo on the aforementioned consoles. You’ll also be able to remap buttons and sticks using the software. Finally, you’ll be able to download or create mods and macros that make it easier to play certain games, which I guess is a double-edged sword. On the one hand those mods can be used to cheat in multiplayer games. On the other hand it could make it easier for disabled gamers to play.

Here’s a comprehensive review and walkthrough by YouTuber JoltReviews:

That’s a jack of all trades all right. The PS4 reconnection flaw could be a dealbreaker for some, but overall I think the Titan One is an incredibly useful tool. You can order the Titan One adapter from ExtremeMods for $60 (USD) or from Amazon for about $64. Head to ConsoleTuner’s website to learn more about the adapter.

Xbox 360 & Xbox One in One Laptop Mod: Xbook Duo

Console modder Ed Zarick’s been on a tear lately. Last month he introduced his Xbox One laptop mod, then a couple of weeks ago he showed off his PS4 laptop mod. Now he’s back with another laptop mod, but it’s not based on the Wii U. Ed’s Xbook Duo is for Xbox loyalists, as it has both an Xbox 360 and an Xbox One in one laptop body.

Ed says the Xbook Duo is a bit taller and heavier than his last two laptop case mods, although I’m sure you can understand why that’s the case.

The Xbox 360’s hardware, buttons and disc tray are on the left side of the laptop…

…while the ones for the Xbox One are on the right.

The laptop still needs only one power cord; Ed says the Xbox One’s power brick can power either console, just not at the same time. Speaking of which, there’s a switch at the top of the laptop that lets you toggle between the two consoles, though you do have to turn the laptop off before switching because the consoles share the same power source. Both consoles are plugged in to an HDMI switcher that detects which console is on and sends that console’s feed to the 22″ 1080p Vizio LCD monitor.

As he said in the video, Ed made the Xbook Duo – or at least this particular unit – for himself and so he’s not selling it. He did share a making of video though:

I guess Ed will have crammed all PlayStation consoles in one laptop by next week. As always, you can reach Ed on his website for questions and commissions.
