Very good videography and amazing work by the case modder, I've seen people do this before but not to the degree that this fella did!
I'm slightly saddened that he destroyed an original XBOX dev kit to do it though!
~~EDIT~~
Another amazing mod by the same person, the Cinematograph HD:

I have one of the development kits back in the states. I remember it being taller than the green debug kits and also had what looked like an actual usb port in the back (tho it was blocked by its plastic shell). The development kits were different in that, using a certain PCI card (I have one laying around here somewhere) you could emulate the dvd drive of a xbox on your pc. Debug kits didn't have that as they were made for doing as the name suggests: debugging.
I think I'm more impressed by the mash up they did for the music (save for the inclusion of "let me see your grill" song). After he finally finished that case, it looked like the only thing left from the original xbox was the cut out top shell and plastic bottom. Meh.

And front panel, which when included with the top and bottom make up most of the actual case...

That's fucking amazing. I love the mac logo he put on it afterwards lmao. I literally laughed out loud when "Get Out The Way" started playing
The music was awesome too. Free to download, which is fucking bad ass :D https://www.tornup.net/TORNUP
02 Lights Out 2.mp3 is the bestttt
EDIT: Been listening to TORN UP for the past few hours. It's a mash up of a bunch of popular songs, and it's really well done. I've literally laughed my ass off a couple of times to what they've included. I definitely suggest checking it out!

Found the Cinematograph HD more impressive, mainly because he built it from scratch.

Looks like there's a ton more space in there than a traditional ATX Full tower case. He should be fine. I just don't understand why he used such an old video card in that thing. Maybe it was readily available and he didn't want to buy a new one. Same goes for the CPU, lol Pentium D. YEs, I do realize this video was made a little while ago. There were newer video cards out when I-Empire was released.

I don't like how the keyboard and mouse was at the bottom, I think it would be better at the top, imo.
I like this case mod:

I'm currently making a time lapse video of my Lego Millennium Falcon (Ultimate Collectors Edition, largest set ever produced iirc), should I integrate a PC into it?

Yes
Actually, I have an Ultimate Collectors Edition Death Star II that's still BNIB, I'll put the PC in that when I build it!
