If you combine the worlds of Nerf and Halo, you would get something like the Tek Recon. Made by Tech 4 Kids, this new line of blasters shoot soft rubber rings, but attaching a smartphone enhances the gameplay. The app shows the location of other players with GPS radar, and it works with iPhone 4, 4S, 5 and iPod Touch devices, as well as select Android devices. Two sizes of the Tek Recon blaster come out this fall for $20 and $35, and there will also be a battle pack for $40 (includes four blasters and two digital flags).
