Play 2 breathes new life into Eyetoy

This winter Sony will release a follow-up to the original Eyetoy game, called simply, Eyetoy: Play 2. The innovative peripheral has received little support from third-party developers, let alone Sony itself, but this new addition should be cause enough to dust off the old Eyetoy and plug it in again. The camera will now be able to track motion (and measure the speed of that motion) and Play 2 looks to take full advantage of this feature. The game includes 12 main events—including boxing, ping-pong, and a homerun derby—plus over 80 mini games. Besides motion tracking, Play 2 will also introduce 'color cam' (turning brightly colored objects into controllers) & 'cutout cam' (superimposing the player onto the screen).
