Nyko Gameface Xbox 360 Faceplate Review

After installation you may notice a few other minor inconveniences. You now have a three-layer system on the front, so the disk drive and IR reciver of the xbox360 are slightly backwards. I have big hands and I had to use my nails to press the eject button through the faceplate, and I noticed on a few occasions the drive tray would block because of the strain of 2 plates on each other. My Media Center remote also didn’t work as well as before, and I actually had to point the remote directly towards the sensor to align it :/

Now don’t get me wrong: overall the Nyko Gameface 360 is a great piece of kit. It’s just the low functionality of the added software and the fact that I had to wave my remote around pointing at my xbox that puts me off. In the end, the Nyko Gameface 360 is the best idea of personalizing your Xbox.

category rating comments
Quality 4 It’s durable I’ve played with the plastic a lot and it didn’t bend or deform.
Innovation 4 Software has little functionality, but big community to trade out designs. Fully customizable to your own taste.
Performance 3 Adds some bulk, which causes problems with the remote and drive tray.
Installation 4 Relatively easy to insert new designs, but the software wastes some ink.
Value 5 Its Cheap if you consider you buy 21 faceplates for the cost of 1
FINAL VERDICT: 4 out of 5 stars
