why do sony keep saying **** like this

"killzone 2 will be better than halo wooo!"
"the wii is a toy wooo!"
"the eye toy is better than the wiimote wooo!"

They should be trying to sell there £450 mess not trying to bash the wii or 360

Sony never said it was better than the wii-mote. More potential does not mean better. Its what developers do with that potential that makes the technology better than something else.

I have said this time and again, the Wii-mote needs an upgrade. It uses IR to determine where the remote is located and pointing. Sure it sounds great on paper, except for the fact that 3 sensor bars would be needed to determine, without error, the Wii-mote's location in 3D space.

Nintendo's work around of "putting 2 candles behind the player" is utter crap. Would any smart player want to have two sources of flame near the playing area, while having a party with the Wii? Sounds like a recipe for disaster to me.

yugioh game is gonna be created by konami with this technology... its gonna be awesome!!!!! i wanna play against a virtual opponent

I agree that the Eye Toy has more potential than the Wiimote 100%. This can be a controller for as many people as can fit in the screen and it isn't just sensing a little stick. It is sensing your entire body plus your surroundings and your voice. This will be an amazing piece of hardware but as someone has said it will be make or break depending on the software provided for it. If no one makes software for it then people will never see how advanced and capable it is. I for one cannot wait for this thing. When will they give us a date for it to be released?

heres the thing. eye toy could do more but it wont and even if it does its appeal will be NO WHERE near the wii's.

you sure????
lol well i dont know... the cost of the cam is also a concern to people

[mcdougall57]

isnt the eyetoy relatively slow though? unless its sped up on the ps3 or somat cos on the ps2 it was slow and wii movement is instant

to someone who enjoys computer games, it's success doesn't matter, if a great game comes along and i get to play it, i couldn't care less whether it gets record sales.

after watching the PSN video of the tower game and the camera, i am even more interested.

In regards to the wii remote, the eyetoy seems to do what the remote promised and hasnt lived up to… real time motion control !!!
even the first 'eyetoy: play' title could manage that, and it is the basis for all eyetoy games.

of course the fact there are no buttons used for the eyetoy games means the same gameplay methods arent yet possible, but a simple alternate one handed controller could manage that.

even a coloured stick could perform just as well as the wii remote as a sword or tennis racket.
