The benefit of playing games is how you get to sit still on a soft piece of furniture, pressing buttons without sharp edges. You're as safe as you can be from tripping over stuff or otherwise doing yourself as mischief. That's until you add a spicy dash of risk with one of these exciting peripherals, and gamble on your natural sense of balance and self-preservation to keep you safe. Good luck!

The average modern golf driver is 45 inches of titanium. The average Move controller is eight inches of mostly plastic. In the ideal world you wouldn't have to be hit in the face by either of these instruments, but if the revival of Craig David's musical career teaches us anything, it's that the world in which we live is far from ideal.

So if you had to choose, you'd rather not be whacked in the mush with a full-sized, full-weight golf club being swung around your living room at head height. And yet here we are, with the Universal Virtual Golf Set for PlayStation Move and Nintendo Wii from CTA Digital.

Assuming your living room isn't the size of a driving range, you're going to run the serious risk of clobbering someone in the kisser as they walk uncautiously nearby.

Did you try the above golf club peripheral, the Mindwire V5, the 3rd Space FPS Gaming Vest or the Kinect Game Boat? How did you get on? Let us know in the comments, if you would, you pioneering peripheral-haver.
