Advantages: Great image quality and great microphone

Disadvantages: Could do with some more games to get more use form it

The Playstation is a great little camera mainly for the PS3 but can also now be connected to a computer and used as a webcam.

The camera gives a very impressive picture and has advanced a long way since the days of the original eye toy. The picture is exreamly clear and bright, it can work in fairly low light conditions and still give a good picture, it shows movement very effectively with very little blur or distortion.

The microphone on the ps eye is also very clear and can be used in game to chat to friends over the internet. You don't have to be speaking into it to be heard as it has a number of clever microphones that filter out background noise and only records your voice.

The camera came with some software to make an edit you own movies and films. The software has a range of features and is quite fun to use but probably won't last long and will soon be forgotten about.

The camera can also be used in games such as Burnout Paradise to take pictures for your driving licence or to send pictures to people when you take them out or are taken out online. The camera is also a key part of the game Eye of Judgement whcih is a very inovative game that is played with cards and each card has its own character that appears on screen when the camera is pointed at it. The characters then fight, it is like an interactive card game. The camera can also just be used as a microphone in any online games instead of having to use a blutooth headset.

To conclude the camera is a great addition to the PS3 ir may not get used all of the time but is great for when you have friends around or don't have a headset. It is also a great alternative to a webcam and for the price is unmatched.
