Quite honestly, the camera is pretty much a limited gimmick. That eye-toy card game thing was an ingenious idea, but like the eye-toy on the PS2, it has little other use. If I want to play a game where I can act like a wind shield wiper ill buy the Wii game. There just are not enough drunken parties going on that need an eye-toy to play with.

Also penis.

 

As I've said I'm not talking about the all the silly eye-toy games, I'm talking about the use of custimazation brought to a game, face mapping, using photos as decals in games like forza, Guitar Hero, what if in an open world game like GTA you could take a picture buy a billboard space and have your picture posted to the billboard. That would be awesome. Also using photos in Home to decorate your living space would be cool, it could be cool in Sims 3 also. And I'm not again going to explain myself about the penis thing freaking read prior posts. Come on if LBP isn't afraid to venture into this realm why is mature rated games afraid of? Escpecially ones that can incoporate this feature offline. just think about it.

Then what your really asking for is an image upload feature where you can take any photo to build your mask.

 

what do you mean by mask? like a placecard where an image can go? if thats what you mean then definitly I think that level of custimization for a group of people could add a ton of reply value.
