Up until recently, details have been sparse in regards to how you'll actually be playing The Eye of Judgment, but just in case you still have some questions, this video should spell everything out for you.
While the game seems to live up to its billing, we could have used some battle music when the game transitions to combat mode. The lovely music is nice for a lonely walk in the woods, but when a flock of dwarves is battling a winged demon astride a three-headed beast, we expect to be blasted with some metal ... or even country music at the very least.
Chris Buffa (Modojo): Augmented reality is a simulated version of the real world that has become a staple of television broadcasts, most notably as the yellow first down marker in football games. You've also seen it on the news and reality shows like American Idol and Dancing with the Stars, whenever the overlay appears, urging you to vote. Suffice to say, it's improved the viewing experience tenfold.
Vita should do good for Aug Reality. The new fighting game looks cool. I would love to have a ghost hunting camera game. Like a Fatal Frame.
AR has seen relatively low success because of mainly two reasons:
1. Low key marketing attempts.
2. Limitations: Low interactivity or bound by physical glyphs cards.
However Sony did show off an impressive tech demo that showcased AR that properly reads real world spatial data, which might lead to better interactivity and applications. The fact that it was demonstrated on a mobile phone means greater audience reach.
AR has really only caught on in the last 4-5 year and it's popularity gradually rising. It's still too early to start comparing it to traditional video game mediums when that has had over 30 years to mature.
Invizimals is not really a "blip", it is actually pretty popular and has arguably the largest community for an AR game ever (due to the fact it's got multiplayer).
AR games are not to different in nature from motion controls in that they require movement from the players side. In that respect, stuff like Mario on the Wii might have done well but, there are still many IP's that work and sell nicely on motion control gaming like Wii or Move so, I don't buy that AR needs an old IP to do well.
Also, the guy stated how silly one would look playing an AR game on the 3DS than states how cool a Pokemon game would look. That is either bias or inconsistency in his/her argument. xD

For people who have not played the Eye of Judgment for awhile it's time to assemble your stand and dust off your cards. With the new Biolith Rebellion 3 expansion pack you have additional in-depth storylines for each of the four elements and decks from all three sets. These features are easily accessible from the main menu. The new cards give players amazing new creatures with enhanced abilities and attack options that allow you to submerge yourself in additional modes of game play. Keep in mind, you still have to register every single card with your playstation eye, easily downloadable from the PLAYSTATION(R) Network and purchase additional booster packs from you local game store.
what the PS eye was going to be doing for video games. this is awesome stuff. this game will rock epscially online while playing against your friend.
Yes I would like to know more about the new PS EYE games. Hopefully this will be another reason for people to buy a ps3.
from PSN last night, and only then saw it for the first time, despite hearing the name thrown around here and there.
Never expected it to be anything like this. Funky, to say the least.
It keeps reminding me of the movie, uh...what was it, Star Wars: A New Hope???...where the characters are playing a futuristic version of chess, but with holographic 3D little characters who battle it out on the board.
I'm not usually into the D&D/card-role-playing type of stuff, but I've gotta say these Eye of Judgment videos have got me quite intrigued.
Play B3yond indeed.
Why the hell would I want to play a board game with my PS3? I mean thats what I always wanted to do with my PS3, play some kind of freaking real life card game against it...not. Neat idea but it seems someone didn't exactly think this concept through.
4 the party games that comes out later
