[Mr Jones]

Essential gaming gadget or wierd little toy?

Anyone played with one of these yet?, I have, my mates kid has one on his PS2 and it's stupid fun beyond the limits of what stupid fun should be :p

I think I'd spend the money on another game instead of a camera... but that's just me.

[anubis2003]

I agree to sarge!

[laz]

are you trying to be like Mr_007 anibis? :p
I dont think that is worth it, I would also rather buy a game, and get me one of them wireless camers to spy on people... err damn.

I hadn't heard of it until now. What games have you played with it Jones?

[Mr Jones]

There is a better show of what it can do here.

Kung Fu is just silly silly fun, it's one of those gadgets you wanna plug in after you come home from the pub with your mates after a few beers and you just wanna have a laugh, nothing serious about it, just stupid fun...

You know how much of a prick you look if you have a go on Dance Dance revolution or something?, imagine doing "air kung fu" hitting things on screen, or trying to head an invisable football to keep in time with what's going on on screen.

Stupid fun, after all isn't that what gaming is about?

good idea to you sony!

[Twilightseer]

The Eye Toy was tested in a French videogames magazine and they said it was incredibly fun. I'll try and get it if it gets a little less expensive than it is now :)

i have one and they're really cool. it can be kinda tiring after a while, but yeh its worth it i think. good to play when you have friends round (or with your siblings)

[Mr_007]

Good camera!
for ps2?

[mark]

yes!
and your english is much better now! you don't seem to be postpumping as much!

[zootm]

i've spent a while making an arse of myself in the town centre of late, every second shop seems to have one of those. i think they're brilliant. probably quite short-lived if you had your own one, but there's quite a diverse selection of games and stuff with it.

i gotta go into town...

[Starbucks]

OMG OMG! I want one it looks like so much fun beyond fun! Omg. Omg. Does it work with PC as well? (Just wondering...)

[mark]

no, ps2 only.

[Mr Jones]

And in other news, Eye-toy breaks the million mark.

Not bad for a gadget that basically set's out to make you look like a fool. :D
