EyePet PS3 Review – So COOL it’s a KILLER!

Turn on EyePet on your PS3 and on your TV screen you can see a live video feed of you and whoever is with you on your TV screen along with a cool little animated monkey. The technology is called Augmented Reality.

The EyePet for PS3 is like Tamagotchi brought into the 21st century, using the latest video tricks to make it SO playable, but with one great added element: FUN!

EyePet comes with great tutorials on how to get the most out of your new friend, with a virtual pet training program. Learn how to throw cookies in your pet’s mouth, wash it with shampoo and change its appearance.

Interaction with your new pet is done through hand signals or other actions, but a host of additional options are opened up via the optional magic card (part of the EyePet pack). Around 60 mini-games use this magical card, including a number of simple sports simulations where you can challenge EyePet.

Draw a simple car shape, let the webcam scan the drawing, and then it will appear in-game on the screen in 3D form, which you can then drive with your normal PS3 controller.

Think you can make your EyePet look a little cooler?

So why not bathe or shave him? You can paint him, change his hairstyle and of course you can completely change his appearance by giving him as many makeovers as you want.

EyePet is cute, it’s adorable and kids will love it. Just like your kids fondly look at a pet store window, so will EyePet: they see it, they love it, they want it, only now they can have it in their own room and can play and interact. with him as long as they want.

In an interesting move, Sony has delayed the release of the EyePet video game in the US until spring 2010, while it will launch in the UK and Australia in the fall of 2009. Rumor has it that they want to “tighten up” the video game options. game. to add to the longevity of the game.

Whatever, from what I’ve seen, the EyePet is a nailed-down winner.
