You guys dont seem to get it.

Twitch and broadcasting live gameplay ie. streaming is probably the biggest reason why the camera was made.

The number of people streaming has sky rocketed over the last year or two. There are so many streamers getting famous through twitch nowadays as oppose to Youtube. Not to mention the massive impact popular streamers have on the uptake of new games is insane!

Sony knew exactly what they were doing with the camera. I think everything is secondary to live broadcasting. Which is why theres no big titles for the eye. I doubt we will ever get any...as this was not the reason for the eye. Streaming is

In one or two years time when we have popular streamers on PS4/Xbox One then you will know the reason for the Eye.

Edit: @bolded  well there was always a camera but you get what i mean with this post :/

That's a good point, but I doubt Sony thought that far ahead. I don't think they expected the camera to catch on with streamers, hopefully now they recognize the potential and put some more weight behind it. Sony has a big advantage here as the XBO doesn't have Twitch yet and Nintendo won't even pay attention to the market  

I have PS Move but I didn't get the camera. The whole streaming thing doesn't interest me and there doesn't appear to be any games that use it in any meaningful way. I wish Killzone Shadow Fall had Move support considering how well it worked with Killzone 3. 



Sigs are dumb. And so are you!
