hey I'm Scott Stein if you ever played laser tag I used to a long time ago and those toys have still been around for years it turns out that hasbro is finally tact iOS compatibility onto them with the new laser tag that's coming out now through the fall these new blasters have believe it or not an iphone or ipod touch bracket that allows you to plug it right in there and use your iPhone or iPod touch as a heads up display in combination with playing multi-person laser tag wherever you are strange idea well kind of gimmicky but when you use the download iOS app it shows you some built-in augmented reality targets that interact with what you're shooting at as well and provide a strange Kwazii video game like laser tag experience that's definitely not like anything else has been out there and for forty dollars for one of these or 75 for two it's not that expensive to get on board compared to other iOS toys and accessories so how does it work well we grabbed 10 people it accepts up to 24 players and we tried it you and one goodness i can review themselves with so we tried a mission here 505 I'd say was a bit of a mixed bag we did have some people who didn't have iphones and we had some people that original weapons and we had a lot of systems crouch on us maybe thats the beta software but some of them seem like they weren't quite registering others seemed like they were all i know is i won so i feel like i did a great job
