The next generation of controllers in Lego

Nathan Sawaya, a
professional Lego builder (yeah, they have those) has put his Lego mind to the next-generation of games consoles. Like
he says "with E3 coming up, I built some video game controllers! Yay!" He must have started these
models a while ago, because he hasn't made a Revolution controller model. Once you're over at his site, make sure to
check out his mad-lib from a general video game fanboy:"The greatest video game ever would be called Super Invading Combat [insert plural noun] from Mars Championship 2006! It would be fun to control the [insert noun] as it fights all of the [insert adjective] bad guys. My favorite level would let you [insert verb] a car all over [insert place]. You could also earn [insert plural noun] if you didn't [insert verb] [insert plural noun] [insert conjunction] [insert prepositional phrase]! Wouldn't that have [insert past participle]!"
Sounds like a cool game.

Shame he's going to have to dismantle that and redo it when Sony reveal the actual controller ;)

And the controllers look pretty dumb too. :)

It kills me that he didn't bother with the Rev.

(troll) Silly article title, these controllers aren't next gen! If he wanted to make lego models of anything next gen from those guys, he'd have to use almost a million little blocks (1280x720). We all know there's only one next gen controller!(/troll)
But seriously, that's some damned fine lego work.

I emailed him (I did a project for school last year and I had to interview him) and asked why he did not make a Revolution controller. He told me that he was hired to build these (he does freelance) and the person who asked him to build it only asked for the PS3 and Xbox 360.

Quick! Someone hire him to do a Rev and controller! :D

In the pic with the guy holding the Xbox 360 controller, the X looks like a frowning face. hahahah

Gosh, if the PS3 and 360 controllers are that big, imagine what an original xbox controller would be like....

I am with #3. This guy is a loser, plus that isn't even the right one anyways for ps3

The Xbox controller would probably be on a 1:1 scale.
