American EyePets caged 'til 2010

Sony's EyeToy for the PlayStation 3 hasn't enjoyed the most robust of support since its October 2007 release. However, that could soon change with the introduction of Sony's new camera-based motion-sensing controller, which the publisher first trotted out during its 2009 Electronic Entertainment Expo presence and is expected to arrive in spring 2010.

[UPDATE 2] GameStop's online database indicates EyeToy-compatible interactive animal-raising game has been bumped to next year; Sony confirms delay for US, re-affirms October 23 date for EU launch.

Definitely getting this for my kids and this is exactly what the PS3 is capable of NOW and the 360 want's to copy. Proof the Natal is just a PSEYE clone is this game is does anything the NATAL does including scanning items. So bang on about NATAL as much as you like PS3 had it for years and what has it done for sales? NOTHING and that's exactly what it will do for 360 sales. So enjoy this technology now with the PS3 it only does EVERYTHING. Or wait till September 2010 for the 360.

Do you have to feed it? Does it die? I ask these since it was compared to Tomagochi (sp?). Those things died when they had their own feces on the screen.

Just get a real pet.

@cRaZyLeGs 93: I can't have a pet. I had a hamster and I was trying to teach him to attack people and bite their cartoid arteries. Pets are dangerous stuff.

That's kinda weird, for which reason Europe would get it in October and USA next year? Anyway, i guess American players can still import it from UK if they really need it, that's not like if there was any language barrier or the game would be zoned.

But that's still a strange decision and i wonder what motivated it, especially for a US-only delay.

[Redempteur]

Ah ah ..this delay is for two things

- to add : ps3 wand controls AND items

- to counter NATAL launch by adverdisings a LOT BEFORE .. and cutting the grass under M$ foot

I can't see anything else happening since at every gaming event eyepet was basicly complete..EVERYONE agreed on that part.

i checked on that yesterday when i read about the delay.
They say this title won't work here if you import it. sorry folks it is coded for UK and Europe only (unless someone can show and tell me otherwise)

I live in the UK and SCEE better not take the p1ss and not add what the USA is getting. :(

The Wands are releasing worldwide and I'm not going to buy the game twice.

[whateva]

to add to the PS3 wand games.

[WickedLester]

Now, what exactly is coming to the PS3 THIS year?!?!?

[pixelsword]

(goes to play Demon's Souls until Uncharted comes out)
