High stakes poker is reaching new heights with the release of World Series of Poker: Tournament of Champions, the follow-up to 2005's top-selling poker video game from Activision. Building on the success of its predecessor, the all-new poker game features more than 20 top pros, gives players access to extensive poker tools that will help them improve their game, and includes DigiMask Technology that actually maps a player's face into the game.
Eurogamer.it: Texas Hold 'Em has an enormous value compared to most card games or gambling. Although not missing a good part of luck, the match between the players is indeed first and foremost a strategic challenge. In other words, to win in poker Texas must provide the designs of enemies and you have to play accordingly.
Although both high-definition consoles currently have camera peripherals out on the market, it seems Sony and Microsoft have two rather different strategies regarding the integration of cameras into the console entertainment experience. Join The Exploding Barrel as we compare the cameras' features, the roles they play for the two consoles, and the the variety of applications that take advantage of these ocular add-ons.
yeah the PS Eye is great, although it looks kinda weird
and once again, another feature is done better on PS3 with more capabilities and quality and the software to go along with it- Trials of Topoq is great fun
and it will be great fun when Sony implement that feature that lets you control the XMB with the Eye
I can't argue with you here. Sony has done so much more with there camera than MS has. It seems like MS is using theres primarily as a communication device while Sony is using it for both communication device and game peripheral.
yeah man i don't know why you hate the PS3 so much
in a couple of your posts you said stuff like KZ2 is one of your most anticipated titles of 08 and you like stuff like the eye
it seems to me that you like your PS3 more than you let on
consoles, but neither of the cams. I have considered picking up one of them however. It sounds as if the ps3 model is better, but all my friends are on live, not psn so that kinda sucks. does the ps3 cam plug into a usb like live vision? that would be another downer because I have the 40 bg ps3 which means only 2 usb and both on the front. I guess the same could be said for my 360 though because i have wireless adapter plugged into the back of my 360. thanks for the write up, gives me something to ponder...def think its cool up to 6 people can have web chat at once on the eye, this is a feature we've been asking 4 4ever on live
Yeah dude, it's USB, but you should be able to get a cheap adapter at Radio Shack. May go for a powered adapter, just to be safe... and I'm not sure if the mic will work if you go through a passthrough. (USB extension cords don't allow sound data to pass through, I hear.) Good luck though.
The Eye is a must have though. The Vision is really just a fun extra, but the Eye is fantastic. So long Blue-Tooth headset!
i got one from local ebay seller. i couldnt find it at all UK's store. They were all out of stock.
That this article appears just when i was considering getting a PS Eye...how strange.
I also love the part where it said " instances of flailing your arms around like a jackass", who wasn't thinking of the Wii...COM'ON!
