EyeToy: Play

THE GOOD:
Some games.
Some characters.

THE BAD:
Some games are too easy or too annoying or too hard.
Some characters get very annoying.
This does get very repetitive.

SUMMARY:
Lastability: 2/10.
Good for a few hours, and sucks afterwards as everything is the same over and over and over again. Good with friends who are interested.
Graphics: 3/10.
Umm, Cel Shaded was not what PS2 wants. I mean, it's way better on GCN, but then where's the crap?
Sound: 4/10.
Pretty repetitive and stupid! All you hear is hitting sounds and other stupid sounds we don't wanna hear all the time.
Gameplay: 3/10.
Always going to be the same over and over again, so don't go buying this game.
Overall: 1.5/5.0.
I'm very concerned about this load of rubbish. I needs better games and no repetitiveness.

SUMMARY:

THE GOOD:
Never used before Idea!
12 great minigames which are easy once you play for a while.
Great Fun with mates.
Family Entertainment.
Good value for money.
You basically make the game.
Good exercise.

THE BAD:
Short Lived
Gets a bit Blurry
Too Childish for some people

SUMMARY:
Good game. Don't get too addicted though as you will get bored of it too quickly. EyeToy : Play will excite little ones and even a laugh for older kids and for some mini games possibly adults. Although it is a bit childish. You will have hours of fun with this and you pose for 3 photos at the start which will make you laugh out loud if you make them funny. Which brings me too my next point. Making the game. You basically make the game. Yeah its already made but you control what you do make the fun yourself! The camera came free with the game and that is good value for money! You may want to get it for Christmas but...

THE GOOD:
-like nothing you've ever seen before: 100% original
- Compatible with future games: not a one off.
- same price as a normal game with a camera included and 12 games.
- You are the star. Endless possibilities.
- Suprisingly interesting story and cunning boss fights.
- great exercise.
- Kung- Foo involves a matrix like power-up to allow you to be as fast as Neo.
- Who says you need arms? Grab a toy sword or any periphial for extra added fun!

THE BAD:
- can be short-lived
-the novelty of arm-waving soon wears off
- a bit kiddy for the older gamer

SUMMARY:
Sony had a lot riding on this. Future success, sells, and a heap load of money. But does eyetoy work? yes, like nothing you've ever seen before.

Basically, you are the star. In a series of 12 mini-games, ranging from the insanely addictive Kung-Foo, in which you beat up bad guys flying at you from all directions. Use your good...

THE GOOD:
Well 12 minigames are good they are addictive and not impossible. The playroom is a brilliant idea and the video messaging is spectacular

THE BAD:
You need more than yourself to get fun

SUMMARY:
This is well worth buying. It is outstanding. You need this to have a brilliant PS2 collection. the official PS2 magazines gave it 8/10 but i would gaive it 9/10. But since this is out of five I would give this a worthy 4.7/5. The best mini game in my own personel opinion is Rocket rumble, i got a high score after a couple of times. I only kept tring because this i found out was very addictive. The only bad thing i will say is that you really need more than yourself to get the most fun out of it. But with freinds you have a laugh at doing stupid video messages and becoming fatter in th playroom. All in all this is a very good piece of equipment and I would recommend this game a lot.

THE GOOD:
It is 1 cool Game
The Game play
The controls
the games

THE BAD:
Boxing hurts my arms
the buttons get pressed acidentalyy
the controls on menus are annoying
