10 Awesome Gaming Accessories

The coolest gadgets and accessories when it comes to pimping out your playroom.



Already loaded up on essential (read: should’ve been in the @#$! box to begin with) next-generation gaming peripherals like $50 controllers, wireless network adapters, HDMI cables and the odd removable hard drive? Great – assuming you’re still in the black, let alone able to make rent this month, the good news is that when it comes to pimping out the old playroom, you’re just getting started. But with dozens of tchotchkes ready to gobble technophiles’ loot like Pac-Man does power pellets, allow us to recommend several that’ll satisfy the urge to splurge – and hopefully take your game to the next level.

So, in no particular order, here are ten of my current favorite accessories:

1. PS3 Eye - Three cheers for branding; back in our day, most people simply called these suckers USB cameras. Then again, this audiovisually-enhanced sequel to the EyeToy’s ability to project one’s image on-screen where it can interact with in-game objects does prove pretty forward-thinking. Alternate uses include videoconferencing, creating American Idol-style clips for online distribution via SingStar, inserting your mug into Burnout Paradise or just firing up 3D card-battler The Eye of Judgment for a little Star Wars holochess-style action.
