Game Boat: The Most Useless Accessory In History
Well, we've officially seen it all. Just when you think that acting like a spazz while rushing down a river in Kinect Adventures couldn't look any more ridiculous, peripheral manufacturer Atomic Accessories steps up to the plate. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome to your living rooms...the Game Boat! According to Atomic this is "de facto the first accessory for the peripheral which doesn't need any." (That's actually what the product description says!)
Basically, it's a small replica raft that you can inflate ("practical" pump included!) and set on your living room floor and totally stand in, jump in, and generally act like an idiot to your heart's content. Atomic says the unit "Ideal to comfortably play in 2 gamers simultaneously, still without being clumsy in the living room." What's more it can be "be used in the watyr, at the sea or at the pool, by children and adults." Watyr!
We don't know how much it costs yet, but when you see something this good, money is clearly no object.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
