  1. I'd almost go as far as saying that EyePet makes the Move worth it alone, especially if you have children.
  2. Cynics won't be able to see past the aesthetics that were kid-tested and executive-approved, but the curious might just find something wholly unique and affecting for their PlayStation.

    Pretty much the same game, only a bit better with Move. [Issue#197, p.95]
  4. Your EyePet will quickly feel like a member of the family and it's very rewarding to see a young child's eyes light up when they see and interact with it. If you have children and they want a pet, but you're against the responsibility, EyePet may actually be a decent substitute.

    I thoroughly enjoyed my time with EyePet and was surprised by the variety of things to do with him in order to keep things fresh.
  6. If you're already sold on the technology then this is undoubtedly the best version of EyePet to get, but otherwise save your cash and get the first edition, which is still readily available.
  7. We may have seen it all before but the EyePet Move edition transcends the original premise and creates a rather well made virtual pet game that is so abundant on the Wii and the DS. Great graphics, good use of the PlayStation architecture, this might become a must have game for the younger gamer.
  8. The interaction between yourself and EyePet is tremendously accurate and responsive, and I think that's what counts most.
  9. EyePet is a unique experience that children will absolutely adore, provided you can overlook some of the issues that tarnish the experience.

Obviously, it can be a good (temporary) option for the (younger) kids. The frustrating functionality of the Move controller didn't help too much on having a better opinion of this product.

With many customizable outfits and styles for the EyePet, players can spend quite some time just modifying their pet. There are many activities for the player and their pet from feeding, playing catch, drawing toys for it, and just messing around with the EyePet. The challenges are great for kids.

    This game showcases many cool features for the new Move controller and Playstation Eye. The augmented reality does a great job of immersion and interaction.
