Default Predator meet XBOX, XBOX meet Predator

I found this to be quite interesting.

Military using video game tech to control vehicles - Video Game Feature - Yahoo! Video Games

What do you guys think? Good idea or bad idea?

Video game technology is advanced enough, but it may be problematic that potential enemies can easily figure out how exactly it works by buying a X-Box themselves.

I think the Sony Playstation was not allowed to be exported for a while because the processor was too easy to adapt to military technology.

They could always switch the analog sticks around to mess with enemies, but then again, how many of current threats are stealing more advanced military hardware in the form of vehicles?
