Thumbs down Worthless Video Game Accessories

List dumb or worthless accessories for consoles (or pc) here.

I came across this at Best Buy:

Xploder Online | Shop | Xploder Parental GameLock

It's a parental control add on for PS2. I do belive that PS2 already has parental controls in the menu already.

Remember that nintendo visor thing that you put over your eyes and played the game? i can't remember the name, but it was pretty retarded too.

reduce reaction time means you lower the time between thinking of an action and then completing the action. so this is a good thing, if it works, whatever the fudge it is
