a few more button prompts, would just do what kinect offers, as interface interaction goes.

So what does pseye do better than what you can do wit h a few more button prompts?

Regarding the PSeye 2.0 for interface interaction (without psmove) I dunno what it can do since they have not explained that, but the PSeye tech is based on eyetoy tech, which could track your body already in the PS2 era.  So If they getting better at it, I think there is a possibily of acting similar to Kinect.     Considering the device is being bundled with the console too, I really expect some similar Kinect (eyetoy 4.0) funcionality, maybe not as detailed.   But I still would not use, I think.


I am saying this to kinect now (which was technically way further than a standard webcam but wasn't used appopriately) but perhaps we as gamers should be more openminded to future gaming. I mean we are the hip "young" people who are the nerds but when it comes to kinect/pseye everyone is so "meh, crap". Why? Keep open, perhaps it'll make fun. If not, don't use.

As long as the functionality is not forced, I guess it would be a nice thing to try, but considering Kinect is forced into the user, as interface interaction, it is a bit annoying to me.

Why is it forced? Did anyone confirm you can only use the interface via kinect? Source?

Kinect 2 is one of the things cool about it yes.

But seriously? Required?

What is the problem? You get it with the console, if you don't want to use it (or have it visible) you can probably just lay it on a shelf, still attached.

is the X1 "eye toy" bundled or sold seperate?


Fixed!!  >:|

Seriously are that ill informed?!?

Looks like you are. Eye toy is nothing compared to kinect. Eye toy is more like below:

Kinect is in a whole other league.

I don't know much of that 360 camera but according to wiki it states "The camera can be used for video chat, personalized gamer pictures, in-game video chat, and still pictures.", so no really used with actual gaming.  Where as the PS eye had always been used with actual motion camera games since PS2 with games made for the PS Eye just like Kinect.

It seems like that 360 camera is more like a PC webcam (which it actually can be used as one).

I'm not trying to start anything but i'll gladly have a nice debate with you =)

The demonstration yesterday seems to be an indication, but no I think there is no confirmation.....yet.

So you made just an assumption? Than say so :) I doubt you will only control it via voice. What if you have a cold? No, that's not gonna happen, believe me. How would you move to certain tiles on the interface? "Move left, move down. Go!"?

You know, everyone can infer from the reveal what he wants but it would be nice to tag statements with "I assume" or something and not letting them appear as a fact.

lol.  A funny thing about the voice commands, is that they are available even when speaking in skype, what if you said something to other person, and the xbox goes to TV, or shuts down XD
