Think Mass Effect in-game displays but blue instead of orange. Wherever the player moves the controller, the seemingly Star Wars holographic menu goes with it.
Opening The PlayRoom puts whomever is in front of the Eye camera on screen and immediately, a bright, glowing menu bursts onto the screen, seemingly from the light bare on the DualShock 4 controller.
The other, which can be shared live as well, involves The PlayRoom, a suite of activities requiring the Eye that comes (very intentionally) pre-installed on the PS4. That's one important feature the PS4 Eye allows for. Using a mic or headset, players can also provide live commentary during their broadcast. Users can also broadcast their gameplay live via Twitch or Ustream and while doing so, if they have a PlayStation 4 Eye plugged in, they can have themselves streamed alongside the footage. It lets users capture and share screenshots and up to 15 minutes of video which can then be sent out via Twitter or Facebook. To encourage users to buy the peripheral however, the PlayStation 4 ships on 'Day One' with some features and mini-games that showcase how the Eye can be used, from live broadcasting gameplay video to The PlayRoom suite.Īs part of Sony's efforts to embrace social media and sharing with the PS4, there's a 'Share' button (replaces 'Select') on the controller. The latter does come bundled with the Xbox One but with a hefty $100 added to its price tag. The PlayStation 4 does not come packaged with the Eye camera peripheral, Sony's answer to Xbox One's Kinect.
