I can't wait to see the claims of plagiarism from Nintendo/Sony even though it was patented in 2004! :)

They were going to do face mapping for the original Perfect Dark, but took it out because of school shootings and such. I hope we'll actually be able to implement it into our games this time around.

Ugh... this is why Rare said they would not support the feature after initially announcing it at E3.

Top Spin 2 could really use the create a head feature!

They can always regulate those incident online. Have you seen dickheads with caps on avatars on this site?
Same thing with Xbox 360.

I would like to do an ass face offline and laugh at it while playing tennis thoug.

Another option is parents should turn them off completely for their children. I believe the 360 has some parental controls.

yup, it does

I had a very witty response to your comment, but alas I thought I should be the good citizen since you are new and not flame you. Lets keep this thread on topic and not engage in mindless banter and bathroom humor. If you find a strong desire to do such IGN, Gamespot, and GAF will welcome you.

Welcome to Xboxyde.

No no. The parental feature to LOCK OUT this sort of content for under-18 users. i.e. They cannot see ANY stuff on the camera, good or bad.

And yes, teens are very much capable of such stupidity although I find college kids to be even worse for such things.

Anyhow, now that I think about it, it is best NO children use the camera for online pics or video. Why? There are a ton of freaks out there, last thing you want is some sicko preying on kids and using the 360 video chat to hunt them down.

I had no interest in the webcam until now. I dont even have a webcam for my computer cuz i have no use for it. This webcam for the 360 has grabbed my attention tho.

LMFAO. Nice.
Commented on 2006-03-05 08:05:47
Would be very cool if this worked ingame aswell, so you can see eachother when playing.. And if they restrict the use of the webcam to people on your friendslist only, I think that will limit abuse a lot..
