It could take the couch out of couch potato for computer gamers.
I think you would need screen googles so where you looked is what you see and the screeen was always in front of you.
Than all you would need is an open area and then you could go to vitrual war!
Sounds like fun. I hope they hurry so I can still join it  _________________ Only in America......do they have drive-up ATM machines with Braille lettering. |

I saw either this or some rip-off at best buy a couple of weeks ago.
They actually had an outline on the screen that your video image should be placed in so you knew where you had to stand. It was very wierd, to choose a button the kids made a circular motion with his hand over (i.e. over on the video) which button he wanted.
It seems to work very well, but I never did try it myself (I was too embarased that someone might actually see me playing with it) _________________

Yeah, I saw a kid playing with it in Best Buy last week. It looks pretty cool, but I was also too shy to try it myself I get the impression the games are still pretty primitive as he was playing some version of the classic Pong. Maybe when they integrate the camera with more advanced games like Street Fighter it will be interesting. Imagine, you will actually have to know Kung Fu in order to beat the video game! _________________ Amen!

Eye toy? that is for ps2 only right now, bascially it is a port of those logitech digital camera's that sit ontop your moniter. I even had some of the same game for it.
The ps2 has little usb slots on the left hand bottom side of it where i plugs into. Contrary to what I was expecting, I've only sold 2 so far. It's all right, just that is outdated in a sence. _________________
