Sideline: All gaming freaks watch out. Playstation has released The EyeToy.
According to my copy of Newsweek,
"When you connect the EyeToy to your PS2 via a USB port, your image appears on screen. The camera lets PS2 track your movements, which means that you can now use your hands, knees, feet and other extremities to interact with games that take advantage of this new peripheral."
From the pic, it looks like a little webcam that sits on top of your tv, so when you move, it captures your image. How accurate it is, I'm not too sure, but it definitely takes gaming to a new level of cool. :) Unfortunately, according to the website, it's only available in the States, or from online. Funny thing is that there's not much info on the website about it. Why won't PS wanna promote a toy like that? It's pretty cool what....
I can imagine the local usage of it though. Para-para-ing.....
