Yeah you know their not going to just throw it out there, without testing. Is this a confirmed feature?

If you mean the head tracking, no it isn't. PD had some information up on their site that was quickly taken down. Apparently, translating the info was tricky even for Japanese speakers. The phrase in question could be taken as head tracking with pseye. I tried translating in google translate and came up with something refering to looking around the 3d c0ckpit but it didn't mention the pseye. That could be controller based and not pseye. So just like everything else, we will have to wait and see.

Guilty is correct it is not a confirmed feature but if it does come this will freaking rule. They must have other plans for this camera besides eye pet thing.

Bit of a rant here, but it seems like Sony makes such a big deal out of their new gadgets and then completely fail to ensure they get utilized in games.

If it's because they don't build APIs to make it easy for developers to use them or because developers are just too lazy or risk adverse to use them, something needs to be done.

It sucks to go out and buy a playstation eye and see the complete lack of games using the thing in a useful way.

What about the new motion controller? - I seriously wonder if I could tape that silly thing to the stick-end of a plunger then glue the suction end to the floor and make my own long throw flight stick like WWII planes had.

Anyways - hope Sony and Microsoft start doing something to ensure these peripherals actually get support in current and future games.
