The titular EyePet itself is still an amazing critter that is capable of doing some cool things via the PlayStation Eye, but for the most part it still feels like a concept that is held back by tech limitations and generally is still in a very basic form. It doesn’t feel like EyePet & Friends is simply trying to cash in on some craze as the game does more or less feel like an actual product that was thought out. Sadly the constant technical issues and somewhat dull interactive elements lead to EyePet & Friends being a game that will only appeal to youngsters and is far from being an immediate tech wonder for the PlayStation Eye and PlayStation Move.

A ground-up redesign of the original EyePet, this sequel is feature two EyePets simultaneously, along with expanded customization and socialization options.
TP: Obviously a game like EyePet & Friends wasn't meant for the "gaming crowd", but rather for the children of that crowd who (hopefully) aren't going to be allowed to play Saints Row: The Third and probably can't handle the intricacies even of something like ICO. Those same kids don't want to be left out in the cold in a gaming household, so Sony wants to make sure they get hooked early with titles like EyePet.
