ArsTechnica: The more I play with Nerf weapons, the more I notice that there are things you need to look for in the guns you're going to be using to shoot your children or pets. In terms of the more recent line of blasters, the Nerf Dart Tag Quick 16 may have a silly name that I'm not going to type again, but it has more than enough in the design department to cause me to fall in love. It hits all the right notes... and targets.
This is a gun that holds a good amount of darts, is large and comfortable in your hands, and has good range. At $20, it's hard to pass up.
Walmart has announced its Black Friday deals – we round up some of the best discounts to look out for before the deal goes live on Monday.
PopSci:
"What would the creators of some of the most beloved and widespread American toys make, if given a completely blank slate? PopSci asked the driving forces behind toys like K'Nex, LEGO, Tickle Me Elmo, and Nerf to really explore their craziest impulses--and man, did they come up with some craziness."
Cool to see what some of the CEO's and leaders of the giant toy companies dream of as their ultimate toy.
For me it would be like the virtual projected like in the article. It would be awesome to have something where you set it up in a room, and it could take pictures from your past and reconstruct the background/features around you. Not just a projection either, but moving pieces if it is a movie, and it would would be on the walls, ceiling, and floor.
There are four new models in the Vortex line, and while they look pretty similar to older Nerf blasters, these sexy beasts have something totally new up their magazine sleeve: discs. Yep, little green discs fly out of these bad boys, and if you saw it happen, you totally wouldn’t believe that it doesn’t hurt to get hit.
These are bad ass. Check out some of the YouTube videos.

haha I have some silly nerf gun somewhere around here I got for xmas a couple years back. We're all pretty old for them, but they're still a lot of fun to use :D. Almost tempting to buy one of those super nerf guns I see on TV.
