Nyko Zoom for Kinect

Tingtangmakadingdong · 23 Nov 2011 at 14:38

Anyone used the Nyko zoom on the Kinect to play in a small room? Sounds promising and I am thinking of buying one considering it's only £19.99 from a four lettered shop.

What do you guys think?

Been thinking about getting this, esp. for 2 player use. Anyone have some info?

I'd also be interested in this but heard of focus problems and also it damaging the Kinect when fitting. Would be nice to get some feedback on here from people who have used it.

Some comments in this thread, I'm waiting for mine to arrive. It should have been delivered today!

It's great, I highly recommend it if you struggle for space. There are a few niggles like it takes longer to initialise, but other than that it's been perfect. Also, it works better lower down, I originally had mine above my TV, but put it at the TV base (around 2ft off the floor) and found it even more accurate.

Sounds like they didn't set it up properly, or at least re-run the Kinect setup tool from the dash. Also it comes with a protective sticker to put over the Kinect if you intend on taking the Zoom off regularly to avoid any scratching, although IMO you'd have to be cack-handed to manage it anyway.
