Nyko releases Zoom add-on for Kinect

Transform your puny inadequate living room in to an arm-flailing-friendly zone 

It’s no secret that Microsoft’s Xbox Kinect requires a fair bit of room in order to work properly. And if you’re a hardcore gadget lover, your spatial real estate may be severely reduced by whirring boxes with pretty lights on, plastic instruments, Star Wars memorabilia and an army of self-aware robots.

Nyko has come to your rescue with its Kinect Zoom add-on, which handily enables your clever motion-sensing camera to play nice with only 4 feet of distance separating you from it. Available to pre-order now from Gaming Zap for £33, it’s only a matter of time before even the most cramped living spaces become body-waggle arenas.
