Helzown said:Not that I care, but I heard that it absolutely doesn't.
Kariido said:Oh really? I heard a while ago about how its much better than the Eyetoy and that it works fine in dark settings and it runs at like a constant 60 fps and has a great resolution and all this other stuff.

But I was never into the whole EyeToy thing, so it doesn't really bother me.
Yeah but its only 10 bucks more. And it comes with so much stuff, its a amazing deal.Chromax said:I wish I got it when it was 59.99 on Amazon...=(
Why did I chose to wait a few more days that time!!!
Kariido said:Yeah but its only 10 bucks more. And it comes with so much stuff, its a amazing deal.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_EyeCamera
PlayStation Eye is capable of capturing standard video with high frame rates of 60 hertz at a 640x480 pixel resolution, and 120 hertz at 320x240 pixels,[1] which is "four times the resolution" and "two times the frame-rate" of the EyeToy, according to Sony.[7]
The PlayStation Eye also has "two times the sensitivity" of the EyeToy,[7] with Sony collaborating with sensor chip partner OmniVision Technologies on a sensor chip design using larger sensor pixels, allowing for more effective low-light operation.[4] Sony states that the PlayStation Eye can produce "reasonable quality video" under the illumination provided by a television set.[7]
The camera features a two-setting adjustable fixed focus zoom lens, with a 56-degree field of view setting similar to that of the EyeToy,[7], suited for close-up framing in chat applications; and 75-degree field of view setting suited for long shot framing in interactive physical gaming applications.[1]
The PlayStation Eye is capable of outputting video to the console uncompressed,[1] with "no compression artefacts"[7]; or with optional JPEG compression.[1]
[edit]
Microphone
The PlayStation Eye features a built-in four-capsule[1] microphone array, with which the PlayStation 3 can employ[7] technologies for multi-directional voice location tracking, echo cancellation, and background noise suppression; allowing the peripheral to be used for speech recognition and audio chat in noisy environments without the use of a headset.[1] The PlayStation Eye microphone array operates with each channel processing 16-bit samples at a sampling rate of 48 kilohertz, and a signal-to-noise ratio of 90 decibels.[1]
Hmm yeah, maybe all pick one up before the end of christmas.Chromax said:Yeah, but there's 36 packs so it's a pretty decent deal. I have some money to spare since I don't have too many games to pick up for the rest of the year. (Prob only Bladestorm and Smash Bro)
Maybe Sony could advertise this a lot! Some commericals would work.msdstc said:yah the pseye truly is a big step over the original, people seem to have that mixed up, if anything get it for a nice mic . This game appears to be a sleeper hit, lack of hype makes me nervous, I'm looking forward to reviews, this could be HUGE for sony if it can take off. Maybe konami would make a yugioh game?

Wollan said:I think they said 4-6 months after the game release.
Booster packs and Starter decks will be available from day one though.
Kinan said:Does EU price is known already?
EDIT: damn, its 99Euro on Amazon.de. Probably would be cheaper to import from http://www.videogamesplus.ca, 58Euro there before shipping. I'm bit cautious though because I'm not 100% sure that US Eye will be fully PAL compatible, being non-HD.
EDIT2: not really cheaper anyway, shipping is 27Euro, so I guess I have to settle for EU version anyway.
VonGak! said:Nonono my dear, like My SingStar and Buzz TV Quiz this game is a way of preparing/establishing the franchises for when PS3 hits the casual market price range.
^.^ The user-base isn't there yet nor is it expected to.
It would have cost a bunch of money if that's what you are asking.SiegfriedFM said:Would it have been too hard to actually have a camera that captures stuff in HD quality?
Madman said:It would have cost a bunch of money if that's what you are asking.
We recently priced "low end" HD cameras for video conferencing equipment at work. "omfg" is all I can say to the price tags I was seeing. I'm sure they'd be cheaper for an Eye-like devide that doesn't have to pan and tilt, but still well beyond putting in a console peripheral I'm sure.Madman said:It would have cost a bunch of money if that's what you are asking.
Steroyd said:It's definately something Sony needs to advertise to distinguish themselves from Nintendo and MS this Christmas.
I heard but can't be completley sure that the game which comes with a starter deck will be any one of the random theme decks. I'm sure the rest of the theme decks ill be sold on Amazon.andy_lhc said:Guys, I was just wondering about the theme decks being sold in the Amazon. Will the EOJ starter deck be one of those themes decks on sale ? Or will it have a totally different type of theme decks?

Surprise surprise, you didn't enjoy a PS3 game.Mesijs said:I have the game (review version, the box) and do not particularly like the gameplay. It's a lot like Magic: The Gathering (I played Magic a lot) but the PS3 or the graphics don't add too much. It does add a bit, like remembering health etc. But in the end, it is just a trading card game and one I don't really enjoy because the dumb setup of nine different fields, which is a concession for the PS Eye.
Just my opinion, but only played a few games. SO it's just a first impression.
Oh, I see. Sorry, this is actually my first card trading game. I thought I have to get all these to get started...Chromax said:I don't think you need a theme deck, you can just enhance your starter deck with boosters.
