My kids have a couple of mat games, a "flying snowboard"
simulator, and the "Eye Toy" series. Wet days where they can't
get out to play are no longer a problem. We had to buy a thick throw rug
for the family room floor to muffle the thudding.

Anyone who's never seen a Playstation 2 "Eye Toy" camera /
software in action should make the effort. If you can't see the sense in
it, have a few beers with friends and try again. I originally thought Sony
were crazy bringing out the Eye Toy and Singstar. I still think they're
crazy - like a fox.
