Microsoft Kinect for Xbox 360 is a dazzling and groundbreaking peripheral that completely changes how you play games. That much you’ll know already if you caught our Microsoft Kinect review and Kinect games coverage earlier today, but just to emphasise how impressed we are with it, we thought we’d point you over to our best gadgets of 2010 list, where it’s now sitting at number one spot. Yes, number one.

Cast your eyes over to the right and you’ll see that Kinect has bumped the iPhone off top spot as best gadget of 2010. The iPhone 4 is a phenomenal device, make no mistake, but it still isn’t enough to merit an upgrade from the iPhone 3GS, for many people.

Microsoft Kinect on the other hand is a genuinely revolutionary device that makes family gaming seamless and utterly intuitive, and the scope for it to change how you control your living room is massive – we simply cannot wait to see what future plans Microsoft has for the device. So! In to the top spot it goes.
