IainYesterday spelled payday for me and in my mind payday translates to “how much cash can you waste in 24 hours day”. Among other, not so essential, items such as food and a new toothbrush I managed to nab a few new games, a red and black 360 controller, a new router and a pose-able Ryu figure. The item that I’m most impressed by though is the Xbox answer to Sony’s Eyetoy, the Live Vision Cam.
Oh the fun I had taking hundreds of stupid pictures for my Burnout Paradise license before finally settling on the “startled cat” look I currently have, then building an army of Chewnicorns in Viva Piñata: TiP by constantly scanning the same Piñata card.
There’s still so much I have to do try out with the camera, like taunting people I take down on Burnout Paradise with a photo of my cheesy grin. Scanning my handsome visage into Rainbow Six: Vegas 2 so people know it was me they shot down for the 100th time. See how well my poker face holds out in a game of Texas Hold ‘Em and of course, get drunk with some friends and create awesome films in You’re in The Movies. I can see me and the Live Vision Cam being friends for a long time, even if it’s just to send stupid pictures to my friends over live.
The Xbox Live Vision Camera is currently bundled with You’re in The Movies for £14.99 in store at Gamestation or £14.98 online at game.co.uk (compared to the £35 – £40 for a separate Live Vision Cam in most stores)
