"EyePet ranges from mostly obedient to unresponsive to downright oblivious of your presence."
just like a real pet then? :D
so, what is wrong with making space in front of the tv for the game? what did they expect? and its not really a huge space that is needed, or did they also put their wii-fit board on the couch-table because there was no room on the floor? actually you CAN play eyepet on a Table, if you set up the camera in the right way, but since that requires commons sense i don't see that happen.
as for the light, i believe the camera tries adjusts itself to the given light in the room when it sarts up!. if you have changing light intensity, like you start with daylight and it's getting dark, it can't keep up, same if the room is too dark from the beginning and you add light AFTER you started the game, that won't work either.
Edit:
"the Magic Card when doubling up as an on-screen gadget has an annoying tendency to vanish if the camera isn’t seeing it precisely"
the magic card doesn't work well, when the camera can't see it? what a FAIL! Shouldn't it be able to GUESS where i am holding the card? ?
“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”
- George Orwell, ‘1984’
