Making A Custom Skin
So, we've got a console...but that's not any different from the one Joe across the street has. It's time for pimpin': lace yours with a custom skin like the one below from GC skins.
The "Don't Touch Me" Biohazard Skin. This is great, because it gives people the idea that you can launch a nuclear attack with your DVD remote. Or something.

Skins
There's even game-specific skin...like this one. Need I say more than "Fatality?"

| This one is called "The Pit". I don't know why. | This is called the HellCube. Pinhead would be proud. |
You can go into some specialty shops with a design and they'll create a skin for you, or you can simply order kits like the above. The whole process takes about 5 minutes to apply the stickers, and your console will look like a mean, lean, entertainment machine.
Ok, we've got our super-nice skin that Joe ain't got. That's just the beginning. You have to actually play games, so we'll need a controller.
