"If you already own an EyeToy and a Bluetooth headset, there's not much need to upgrade just yet. Most of the camera-friendly games available support either...the Eye fits in perfectly next to the PS3 and the built-in microphone makes it just as worthwhile a purchase at $40."http://www.ugo.com/ugo/html/article/?id=19169
