Case modder crams PC into homegrown Team Fortress 2 sentry

We find it impossible to think that anyone in attendance of a local LAN party wouldn't be awestruck when this rig waltzed in, and truthfully, we'd be a little distracted by its boyish good looks all the while. TiTON -- the same mastermind that brought us the Team Fortress 2 Dispenser -- has recreated a TF2 sentry that (unfortunately) fires no real shells at enemies. On the upside, it does pack enough hardware to enable gamers to light up rebel forces within a digital realm, but just like your 16th birthday cake, this one may be too pretty to indulge in.

DAMN, that is the coolest case I've seen.

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:03AM]

Wow, if I saw anyone with that at a LAN party I would just get up, take my computer, and walk home and be like "He wins..."

Good luck getting in the door with that thing.

Id doubt anyone would take a chance and try to stop him

Hey look buddy, I'm an engineer, that means I solve problems.

Not problems like 'What is beauty?', because that would fall within the purview of your conundrums of philosophy.

I solve practical problems.

For instance...

...How am I going to fit some big mean mother hub-board into a sentry gun without tearing a structurally superfluous fan-hole?

I have this overwhelming urge to go up to it and whack it with a wrench.

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:11AM]

[E71 Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:12AM]

Newbies play TF2, old skool players play TFC.

DAMNIT FLASHPOINT BEAT ME TO IT

I just used the "crysis" meme in the article about the B2 Stealth Bomber getting upgraded to Pentium CPUs

[Roberini Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:16AM]

Would love to have a couple of these in my front lawn painted in camouflage green. Then, put a couple of motion sensors so it would light up and move when it detected someone/something around.

"Sentry, going up!"

[rduran Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:30AM]

Incredible! Kudos to the Creator(s). Does the turrent swivel? Between this and the Dispenser mod, it's hard to say which one is cooler. Next up: the Teleporter Display mod?

[Maeztro Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:32AM]

I love me some sentry kills!

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 10:37AM]

No sapper jokes? I'm disappointed.

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 11:20AM]

Here's one, just thought it up on the spot:

"Spyware sappin' mah sentry!"

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 11:17AM]

Wow, talk about your old news. There's been a Youtube video of this thing for months now =P

[(Unverified) Posted Jul 14th 2008 11:29AM]

It is a thing of beauty. I'd almost feel bad sapping it.

...Almost.

Hmm, tap? I ain't surfin on a freaking iPhone.. Though I wouldn't mind doing so.

I tapped on the read link as I am using a touchpad on my laptop (unfortunately).

Either this is another one, or this has been out for several months.

Way to not keep up with the times, Engadget.
