Anything relating to CD-i can be discussed in this forum. From the multiple hardware iterations of the system to the sofware including games, reference, music and Video CDs. Maybe you hold an interest in Philips Media and the many development houses set up to cater for CD-i if so then this is the forum.

After a recent spat of 360 Case Mods my favourite being this
Gears of War makeover! Really tempted to do something with an old CD-i player. I'm aware of that one with all the cool blue neon lights but is it possible to do a single game tribute for CD-i? It would have to be simplistic and immediately striking as game 'X' on CD-i. Come to think of it Burn:Cycle would be the perfect donor game. Now just the small problem of ripping apart the crap black exterior and making it into something cool. Suggestions...

Burn:Cycle would be the only 'cool' game to use this for, I guess. Maybe Atlantis, or the 7th Guest. But you certainly want a Philips exclusive....
try a 3D pic of this:

The 'Biohazard' sign is a must but I'd combine it with the cool artwork from my Limited Edition of Burn:Cycle...
I lack the image skills to recreate it into BMP form however!
Perhaps an Apprentice Mod would work? Using a silhouette from one of those Nudality cheats perhaps

That's a thought!
Nice image though! What CD-i player can be used as a donor? The 200 series is too big. Maybe I could rewire a 400 series player and put it in a cooler modified shell!

nah, you should pick a player with a flat side, the 450 (that's the only 400 right?) is hard to create such a plate for...

I was thinking about ripping the internal parts out then placing them within an entirely different shell. A JVC X'EYE for example!

Very nice idea! When I read it, I immediately thought about letting someone airbrush the Burn:Cycle cover on the case (top side) of my CD-i 470.
Problem is, it would cost about 100 to 200 Euro if done by a professional.
