134w ago - SCEA Producer Emerson Escobar has announced today that EyePet for PSP is now available in retail stores, and is looking for a good home at $39.99 which includes the required camera and Magic Card.

To quote: EyePet first made its way into living rooms and melted hearts across North America in September, when it was introduced for the PS3 alongside the PlayStation Move.

In stores for the PSP starting today, EyePet is now able to explore the outside world! Using a PSP camera and Magic Card, both included with the game, your furry little buddy is now totally portable and capable of being your loyal companion no matter where you go.

Just throw the included Magic Card onto whatever surface you choose, focus your new PSP camera on it, and EyePet will appear, ready to play!

Here're some things you should know in order to get acquainted with this cute little critter:

• EyePet loves fun. This little...

140w ago - Senior Vice President Peter Dille of Sony's Marketing and PlayStation Network has made available a new video today featuring Kevin Butler on the EyePet for PS3.

To quote: Last week we kicked off the new advertising campaign for PlayStation Move with Kevin Butler moving in with the Maguire family to demonstrate how PlayStation Move has something for every gamer in the household.

I hope you've been able to catch the commercials on some of the season opening NFL games and college football games, as well as on tons of other premium programming.

Our next installment is aimed at the younger members of the family (the Maguire's as well as yours). EyePet is being hailed by IGN as the "most exciting Move game" thanks to its introduction of augmented reality.

Seeing yourself in the game interacting with your EyePet is a cool experience no matter what your age. And as Kevin Butler shows in this commercial, all of this obviously spells trouble for man's best friend.





Because it's aimed at kids and parents, this spot will be running across different channels than some of our previous ads. For those that missed its debut on Nickelodeon, you can also look out...

158w ago - Today Producer Petro Piaseckyj has posted up a PlayStation Move developer diary video featuring EyePet for Sony's PS3 entertainment system.

To quote: As you may know, we launched EyePet in Europe last year as a PlayStation Eye title. However, this year, we are very excited to finally introduce EyePet to North America, not to mention, as a PlayStation Move title!

We debuted EyePet and its Move compatibility recently at the Game Developer's Conference in San Francisco, where the response has been tremendous. The marriage of augmented reality and the interactions between the EyePet and his owner, via the PlayStation Move, has been turning quite a few heads.

The PlayStation Move controller can be used in many ways throughout the game. You can engage in a variety of pet care activities like feeding, washing and styling your pet, as well as playing various games using toys such as a bubble wand, fish net or trampoline.

You can also use the PlayStation Move controller to draw items on the screen that your pet can interact with, such as planes or cars.





I can go on and on, but would rather let EyePet's creative director, Nicolas Doucet, do the talking.

167w ago - Sony's Product Marketing Manager Erin English has revealed that EyePet will finally be available for PS3 in North America this Fall with PlayStation Move support!

To quote: Calling all EyePet fans! I'm here to deliver some great news! Some of you may be familiar with EyePet and have had the chance to play with it at various events last year.

Well, we made some changes to the game and I am pleased to announce that EyePet is officially back on the calendar, and better than before.

Available this Fall, the new version of EyePet will come complete with PlayStation Move support! Instead of using the EyePet Magic Card, players will now be able to interact with their new furry friend using the more intuitive and easy-to-hold PlayStation Move.

The PlayStation Move motion controller can be used in many ways throughout the game. For example, you can engage in a variety of pet care activities such as feeding, washing and styling. With the styling feature, you'll be able to completely customize your pet such as modifying fur length, color and pattern, as well as outfitting your pet with over 250 unique costumes.





You can also use the motion controller to play various games with your pet. Namely, it allows toys to appear...
