June 18, 2007Tiltboard — Tilt Sensitivity on the Xbox 360!
Posted by greg
This sounds rather intriguing… Introducing Talismoon’s Tiltboard! Controller tilt sensitivity on the Xbox 360! It does require modding your hardware; there are exactly 7 wires to solder in order to achieve SIXAXIS™-like behaviour. After all, it comes with the following guarantee… “guaranteed to be even more user friendly than the PS3’s SIXAXIS™ controller.”
June 20th 2007– At long last it’s time for Xbox 360™ owners to feel the benefits of tilt sensation, something of which PS3™ owners have been privileged to since its inception. Moreover, the Nintendo Wii™ is a prime example of just how instrumental interactive controllers can be in providing a highly enjoyable gaming experience. Talismoon is delighted to the release the second generation of its Tiltboard controller, featuring a high quality design which is guaranteed to be even more user friendly than the PS3’s SIXAXIS™ controller. Talismoon’s Tiltboard sports a unique u-shaped board that puts the two Tiltboard control buttons within easy reach of gamers fingers, with one button conveniently located on either wide of the wireless controller battery pack. This gives gamers the ability to make on the fly tilt adjustments during a game without even stopping. This comes in particularly handy for instances in games when it is necessary to switch between both stick and tilt control.
The Tiltboard is an intelligent piece of kit and comes pre-loaded with TiltTune ™ technology which is the most user friendly firmware available for such a device. Gamers have the option to adjust the tilt sensitivity, adjust the 0 degree in order to hold the controller at the most comfortable angle, invert the Y axis and turn the tilt function on and off. Everything required to enjoy the latest sensation in console gaming on Xbox 360™ comes in a convenient package and requires only seven wires to solder.
The specs:
- Custom Fit Design
- 2 multifunction buttons within easy reach
- Requires soldering 7 wires
- “Best practice” install method eliminates control loss as controller battery life weakens
- Persistent memory keeps your TiltTune settings even if there is no power to your controller.
- The new tiltBoard comes preloaded with tiltTune technology (TM), the most user friendly firmware available, including:
- Adjust tilt sensitivity
- Adjust the 0 degree so that you can hold the controller at whatever angle is natural for you
- Invert the Y axis (independently for either the stick or the tilt)
- Turn the tilt on and off (switch between stick and tilt)

F00 f00, one of AcidMods finest, has mixed things up a bit with his latest mod — not for the PSP, but the Xbox 360! Tap your foot, bob your head, and enjoy the light show…
This is a mod I did for Geoff at coolmods, to promote his new crystal 360 controller cases.
I’ve swapped out the original leds for red and added a total of 20 smd leds. The ones around the two analog sticks chase in time to the ring of light.
The cases leds, wire, and the screw drivers are available at www.coolmods.co.uk right now.
Nice work F00 f00! Very cool!
