I had read earlier that the Eye Toy CAN be used as a PC Webcam, but a little tinkering needs to be done with this code from a downloaded driver for some other USB Webcam. Anyways, I have it up and running and videochat works on MSN and everything. Simply superb. Image quality is better than a lot of old web cams I've seen before...and the still shots I've made from it are fine so far, but the resolution only goes up to 640x480, which is more than enough for me.

I'm gonna try out the actual GAMES on the 'Play' disc either tonight or tomorrow...so I'll be back with impressions from that.

I also can't wait until 'Groove' comes out. Lisenced music, interactive dancing/motion/hitting targets on screen. Perfect party material

You read the webcam thing over at Gaming Age didn't you? I was suprised to see you post.
