A Missouri State student was able to recover his stolen Xbox 360 by use of the console's wireless technology, the student said.

The console unit's wireless controller was still registered to the specific console, allowing the stolen merchandise to be tracked down, said Ryan Ketsenburg, a sophomore construction management major.

Have to say I lawled

Great, clever controller skills there

Presumably another student, probably after a drunken night out. :/

That's probably the one-in-a-million case where that would actually work.

It's a real shame. Thieves are the scum of the earth and really make my blood boil.
I've never stolen a single thing, not even as much as a penny in my 24 years on this planet.

I hate how some people feel it's their right to take something someone else has worked hard for.

nothing at all?

Never. Not intentionally.

I thought this was going to be about a new Thief game, but that the crossover from PC to console had made it a load of ****.
