No way dude, that will fry your controller! It's actually the 360 that goes in the oven.

Now seriously, anyone with common knows that the oven would just melt it, For increased range you have to stick that sucker in the microwave and nuke it for 4 min

Oh yes, make sure you don't over cook it. Turn to other side after 8 minutes for a nice medium:)

I just did it! It works! The signal range has increased on a logarithmic scale! I am no longer restrained by human lenght units. I have transcended CHAOS!

You have to microwave it for this to work. Tape a little bit of foil to the top of your controller which is where the sensor is located and put it in for 3-4 minutes. The foil will amplifly the microwaves making them more powerful,and will also allow them to stick to the sensor which will increase it's range up to 30 feet. You could be miles of feet underground from your 360 and it'll still get the signal.

OMG you guys. With all of your sarcasm, this guy's going to think you are serious and really try some of this and then end up blowing up his house because he put it in the microwave. Then he'll be on CNN and they'll all be talking about how dangerous video games really are. Stop this. Kid, no! None of this will work. If the current range isn't enough for you, then I don't know what to tell you. Just sit within 30 feet of your TV and put up with not having the distance that you want. It's not worth it to try these things these guys are telling you. They are joking. Don't put your controller in the microwave or the oven. Bad news.
