PlayStation Eye available by itself, for the cheaps

by Nick Doerr { Oct 3rd 2007 at 12:00PM }

If, for some reason, you don't want to get addicted to the sexiness that will be Eye of Judgment, Sony's got your back. It's the first we've heard of it, but there's definitely an option to buy just the PlayStation Eye peripheral without all the extra goodies. The price is very easy to swallow for the technology you're getting -- forty bucks. That's really not bad at all, huh? But you have to remember, for just thirty dollars more, you get Eye of Judgment, a stand and some other peripheral trinkets. The choice is yours, ultimately, but why grab the fancy new peripheral without a game to play on it?

I'm glad they are making it available without the game. True, there's nothing else to use it for but for $40, that comes in below a cheap webcam for your computer. I'm glad it's priced just right.

I think it's great Sony isn't forcing people to buy the Eye of Judgment bundle just to get the PS Eye, which looked quite boring. But still, 'til some games come out for the PS Eye there's little point in buying the it.

Yeah, people paid an extra $70 for a non-functional cat helmet, they'll pay an extra $30 for a fully functional game.

Halo 3 Legendary Edition came with a Small helmet that only fits cats lmao and they paid 70 for that plus a scratched up game

If Eye of Judgment gets good reviews, I will totally plunk the extra couple of bucks for it. It's the full package. You get the EyeToy and something to play with all at once. I hate waiting to make use of a big purchase. You know, like the PS3.

@6:

I think the poster was referring the Halo 3 "ultimate" bundle or whatever it's called.

"but why grab the fancy new peripheral without a game to play on it?"

hmm what did you think of using it on the pc as a webcam.. i mean its a USB peripheral ain't it? so im sure some guy is gonna come up with some drivers for it, and maybe even actual programs for it (you no to make the ps eye work like it works on ps :P)
