Speakers, magnification, joysticks, the Handy Boy looks like what happens when Soundwave from Transformers takes a horrible salvia trip and ends up stuck in this parallel universe, cursed to live out eternity as this chunky, miserable device.

Kinect Game Boat

Xbox Kinect was an irredeemable piece of crap. But on some level, you almost have to admire the absolute laziness of this add-on to an already-terrible add-on. The Game Boat … is a boat. An inflatable boat to drop into your living room and sit in while you play some doofus raft game on your Kinect. That’s it. That’s all.

If you’re thinking about what you’re sitting on, the game has already failed.

This is like if God of War came with an add-on to just give you an orphaned child to sit in your room while you play and follow your ass everywhere. There’s no added value here. In fact, it’s a detraction. You have to find a way to explain to any house guests what the hell is propped up in the corner behind the TV. 

“That’s my, uh, that’s my Game Boat. That’s my boat for games. Well, for one game. It’s my one game boat thing that I sit in while I play my Kinect raft experience. I hate myself, and the reason I invited you over here today was to please drown me. PLEASE.”

 

Thrustmaster Fragmaster

Gaming accessory creation for the PC in the ’90s was the absolute Wild West. It felt like there was a new garbage chunk of plastic aimed at shooter fans every day, and you couldn’t walk through an electronics store without seeing some new device that looked like it had more use on the set of a Hellraiser movie than on your computer desk. The Thrustmaster Fragmaster is this moment in time in a nutshell.

This makes the Game Boy Handy Boy sound safe for work.
