Apparently, with this camera not only can you take pics and view them through your PS2 using the included software, but you can also use them in your favourite games. Imagine being able to gun down all your mates in Quake or have conversations with them in an RPG, their characters actually looking like them! Of course, I would imagine that the camera would double up as a webcam so you could actually be in a game such as an online RPG and people from all over the country could see YOU and you could see them.
As if this wasn't enough, there were also plans for a PS2 printer to go with the camera.
Unfortunately I have heard nothing else concerning these two products since the magazine was released (I think it would have been mid-2001). I'm guessing that the plans have been ditched, but if anyone knows anything about either items then please tell me as I am dying to know more.
Unless of course you mean that game where you wave things around at the screen- the one that's been in PS2 mags recently.
That so made sense.
