Focusing the camera and controlling the characters seemed to be difficult for the younger kids. Rating: 3 / 5 Fun but frustrating.

Anyway, they have tremendous fun seeing themselves, flailing about, and getting the satisfaction of controlling the game. <br /> <br />Only gripe is this thing needs lots of light. Rating: 4 / 5 I primarily selected up this game (and the sequel) for my kids (daughter mainly) who aren’t quite ancient enough to work with the controllers much, although (my daughter) in fact knows what to do with a couple DS sports meeting. Anyway, they have tremendous fun seeing themselves, flailing about, and getting the satisfaction of controlling the game.

Only gripe is this thing needs lots of light.

Rating: 4 / 5 splendid thought on sony’s part to try interactivity owing to camera around 2002. too terrible they didn’t advertise it enough so it didn’t catch on & the technology at the time was limited. the camera “sees” motion by seeing colors. change in affect = movement. so making sure you are different affect then everything behind you, no bright lights where the camera can see, limited clutter/items behind you & enough light to see is crucial.

Sports meeting:

Beat Freak – hit speakers when dot goes over (rhythm game)

Kung Foo – the small cartoon guys jump/attack you in middle, punch, flick them, etc. away, (a lot of fun & very amusing characters)

Wishi Washi – wave hands to clean windows as quick as possible (dull)

Soccer Craze – standing between buildings, bump soccer ball up & keep on screen as well as aim & hit terrible guys hanging out windows (not terrible)

Boxing Sap – you are in a boxing ring (only see half of your body) & punch/dodge various opponents

UFO Juggler – wave hands over ufo to get them to take off like spinning a plate

Slap Stream – 4 clouds & terrible guys/mice & excellent girls (in rabbit costumes) will appear, only smack terrible guys, lose if smack 3+ girls by accident (not as fun as Kung Foo)

Disco Stars – touch the 6 spotlights in rhythm, but in a simon/memory stylishness game

Ghost Eliminator – wave hands over ghosts til they inflate & burst (dull/exhausting)

Mirror Time – screen rotates, reverses & splits & have to touch corner to save girl each time (puzzle stylishness)

Rocket Rumble – different affect rockets go up, touch & then detonate 1 affect at a time unless white joiner appears & set them all off before they fall back down (looks cool, harder then it sounds)

Video messaging – also save videos to the ps2 memory card & swap them with friends, etc.

this game contains a diff mix of sports meeting for the very young as well as sports meeting that teenagers/adults will fine droll & splendid for reflexes & not simple. sports meeting have simple, med & hard difficulties & even athethic people will find their reflexes challenged.

find videos on youtube of gameplay & couple companies have made some flash sports meeting using a pc cam to play similar sports meeting, though these eyegames were made much better.
