  • the microphone works great from wherever you are sitting.
  • The microphone works well, but the camera needs a lot more clarity.
  • Surprisingly it also works quite well as a microphone with Dragon NaturallySpeaking
  • too bad this is only 480 P, and initially I was going to hold out and wait to purchase the PlayStation 4 camera to use it on my PC, but I read that it's not a USB camera and has some sort of proprietary connection not compatible with PC

Reviews around quality (4.24 of 5)

  • but I was expecting better quality pictures or video, photo quality really poor
  • It has good quality and even with just one light on its still nice.
  • The quality of the camera is a bit grainy, so don't expect to get good quality with the lights off, but with adequate light, you'll be satisfied with the results
  • If your looking for bad webcam quality, then this is the one for you.
  • To put it plainly, the PlayStation Eye has no focus ability, it has close or far away views but is fixed focus, it has low to very poor image quality and I am unimpressed with it

Reviews around video (4.08 of 5)

  • It is a great camera video quality is great and voice recognition and clarity raises the bar for web cams
  • If the network is not able to transmit data fast enough, the video will be degraded.
  • I expect to use it more so long as your comfortable doing video chat with other PSN users.
  • The camera gives clear video and audio when in use with the PS3 and when paired with EyeCreate it can be really fun.
  • but I was expecting better quality pictures or video, photo quality really poor

Reviews around game (4.00 of 5)

  • The games that you can get to play with the camera are nice as well, though certainly not a "Wii" replacement
  • Great idea and concept, too bad game developers didn't take advantage of it's potential.
  • The games available for use with it are lacking in worth, at best
  • but the games for it as you can expect are boring which leaves eye of judgement the only decent game for it (though i never played it)
  • There are also some nice family games on the PSN to buy
