Xbox Live (sort of) makes a baby

by Justin McElroy on Mar 18th 2008 12:30PM

Much to its chagrin, the Xbox 360 is not literally capable of giving birth to human lives. What it can do, however, is bring two humans together over multiplayer (Rainbow Six Lockdown, if you're curious) and help them to make a love connection and produce the adorable baby you see in the pic to the right.

Just to cover all our legal bases here we should mention that as cute Victoria Marie Figueroa looks here, you probably shouldn't put your own baby on to an activated 360. We do think though that parents Stacy and Mike have set a new bar for doing the towel trick completely wrong.

Go ahead and Photoshop in the kid's flashing red eye. I'll wait.

Actually putting a baby on top of a 360 running wouldnt be such a bad idea. babies cant regulate their body temperature as well as adults could. they lose temperature very easily especially via their head since its larger in proportion to their body than in adults ;)

enough human anatomy lessons :P

congrats to them.

Great, I always wondered if it was okay to put my baby on the surface of a heating iron. Thanks Dr. FourthDimensionGod.

i'd be more worried about my baby going deaf with that jet engine noise coming from the 360

This is why I love gaming, it brings people together, and in this case it's responsible for new life. Congratulations to the parents and the god father 360 the child is lying on.

had the chrome case & controller and couldn't keep it from losing connection. :( slapped on the original and worked fine.

maybe I needed a baby on mine.

TRIFECTA ACHIEVED!!!

Three pictures of the 360 console in one day!

Thanks Joystiq...you've just made my day!

Is it really bothering you so much? Uh yea, thats a little retarded there.

You're welcome to leave and never come back. Go start your own blog where other retards can jerk off to pictures of shiny black bricks if you hate joystiq so much.

i can has banhammer pls?

That chrome housing on the box and controller = WIN!! But it wouldnt match with all the piano black I got going on in my media room

A PS3 would fit in quite well.

I think he was including the PS3 in there.

Yeah the already PS3 fits perfectly, I had to get a piano black faceplate and skin off of ebay for my 360. It was bugging the crap outta me =P

Xbox 360 Elite not close enough? Oh I guess you don't go for the "satin" piano finish like I do..

That's cool and all, but you can make babies on PSN for free!!! You can do it on Wii also, but you can only create one of eight predetermined babies.

Well at least you know that if you meet your special someone on xbox live, you know that they are not cheap.

:P

Cyro, I don't think so man, after all, they are using their 360 as a cradle...

Just wait until the stories revolving around Home hit the news.
"I thought he was an 18 year old girl!"

*Waits for a baby dressed as Baby Mario sleeping on a Wii*

Nice baby.

My eyes locked onto the console first, not the baby.

This makes me a bastard.

DemonGSides comment = WIN!!!!!

So they met over XBL? I didn't know 2 guys could create a baby together.

The wonders of Gay Fuel.

Yeah, that picture is adorable and all, but now I have to worry about being pwned by a damn baby.

Why? Aren't most xlive users just big babies?

*crying "U stole mah kill u n*gg*r" mu mu *sob

Yes. Big homophobic antisemitic racist babies.

Kind of makes me proud to be an American...

Now, you cant put a baby on a PS3 - it would roll off.

You cant put a baby on a Wii - wii is too small.

Ahhh, xbox is just right!

Congratz!

PS: the chrome is nice touch.

And the concave shape creates a perfect cradle!

Just make sure you left the x360 unplugged or the baby will overheat.

Damn straight: nobody likes having burnt meat for dinner.

Rock a bye Xbox over the tree top....

Daaaaaw. Cute picture.

Hmmm... I figured this would have spawn from "Naked Uno"...

Achievement Unlocked

Pics of the couple?

Creepy.

So, if anybody actually looked at their gamerscores on LIVE, you might notice something.

Both are under 1000 gamerpoints.

This explains a lot. (i.e. - They aren't hardcore gamers - which makes this story a lot less incredible.)

Can anyone explain the red light on the control pad? Mine only does green.

Cute pic.

Ah, the old baby trick. My buddy down in Seattle tried this when he got the red ring. Worked like a charm, his 360 worked for another two weeks. His baby was prophesied to be the fourth reincarnation of the son of God, though, it might not work for everyone.

How is this good news? Less time for gaming! ;P

THANKS FOR ALL THE COMMENTS ON MY BABY GIRL.IAM MIKE AS IN MIKE AND STACY YOU CAN CATCH THE FULL STORY ON YOURE 360 DASHBOARD {INSIDE XBOX}.I WAS ON COD4 BUT IAM VEGAS 2 NOW SMACKEN UP NUBS.

Above comment scares me for safety of child.
