EyeToy: Play
Description (IGDB)
EyeToy: Play is a video game for the PlayStation 2, released in 2003. It was the first game to make use of the PlayStation 2's video camera accessory, EyeToy. The game was initially packaged with the EyeToy when the accessory was first released. It features twelve mini-games to choose from. This game, and all other EyeToy titles, are played by moving one's body. The motion is detected by the USB camera. The software recognizes pixel changes in the video image and compares the proximity of the change to other game objects to play the game. Users who get a high score get to take a photo to tease other players.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« While it may look a bit strange to move your body frantically in front of the TV screen, especially if you're playing by yourself, the EyeToy offers family-friendly fun and a little exercise, too. »
« Whether you’re a hyperactive kid, an inebriated adult, or just someone who doesn’t have any hangups about looking a little goofy to have a good time, the EyeToy will make you smile for the camera. »
« The whole idea itself was not only neat, but it was amazingly well executed and is not only fun ... but extremely addicting as well. »
« It's the simplicity of it that works; that's what will undoubtedly make this thing the ultimate party toy. [Nov 2003, p.146] »
« If you must know why I fancy this one so much, it's because you're a giant on the screen and it looks like you have sole control over the cosmos. I dig it. [Oct 2003, p.123] »
« There is absolutely no reason why this product should be entertaining, much less insanely addictive - but, goodness is it ever. »
« EyeToy feeds the average person's vanity by projecting themselves onto the television. As just about every reality show on the air proves, being on television remains an important status symbol in our culture. »
« A remarkable peripheral. »
Avis des Joueurs (Metacritic)
« i controlli non sono il massimo con la telecamera pero con la giusta luce risulta tutto divertente »
« It was a joke, even when it released. Just a few shallow and pointless minigames »
« The motion controls are certainly a novelty to start with but, due to the lack of accuracy of the EyeToy itself and shallow nature of all the mini-games, that novelty soon wears off. As a result very few people will still be using it regularly after more than a couple of weeks. »
