REVIEW: Eye Toy Kinetic

Developer: SCEE | Publisher: SCEE | Format: PS2

The only unrealistic
thing is peoples’ living rooms will feature in real life. Right?

Reviewer: Craig Gallagher The
Eye Toy was one of the most innovative gaming innovations to come along
in years. It took the gaming experience to a whole new level and
allowed the gamer to become far more involved in the gaming experience.

Now Sony has released the Eye Toy Kinetic, unlike the previous
versions Kinetic is modelled more around a keep fit motivator than a
gaming one. It allows you to utilise it to create a fitness programme
which can be changed at will allowing you to create your ideal work
out.

The new Eye Toy has changed somewhat in comparison to the older
variants. It is now wide screen compatible as well as being a good bit
more compact.

Like the previous ones the Kinetic lives and dies by how willing the
participant is to get up and run around their room flailing like a
crazy person. The Kinetic is a fun way to spend a few minutes each day,
but just make sure that you close the curtains first.
