Heavy Rain – Making a storm on the PS3

No Comments

Heavy Rain for the PS3 has been making an impact in the Video Game press for quite some time now, ever since the first in game images started to get released with unprecedented detail shown in their graphics.

Heavy Rain looks incredible and is perhaps the closest game released to a fully Interactive Movie.

For a long time people were concerned about how well the game will play, and judging by the videos released so far, the game play looks to be based around Quick Time events, where the user has to select the right response at the right time. This type of game play is common but  Heavy Rain takes it to a whole new level, and the story will need to be brilliant to keep the players attention.

Heavy Rain will be a big seller but only time will tell if it becomes a true classic or not.

Check out the IGN Video below to see how the game will play.

EyePet released on the PS3: Augmented Reality in the Home

No Comments

eyepetAs technology in the home improves we are starting to see more and more examples of Augmented Reality in our lives.

Augmented Reality is where computer generated visuals are merged on top of real world images, and a perfect example of this is the new Playstation 3 game EyePet.

EyePet uses the PS3 EyeToy to grab a video stream of your living room and adds a virtual pet into the environment, who will integrate with you in a number of cute and amusing ways, for an example of this see the video below.

Whilst the game it’s self may be nothing more then a gimmick, it certainly shows how Augmented Reality is no longer exclusively available to the military and is now becoming part of all out lives.
