This is not my usual type of game, im more into action and adventure, but I also have an 8 year old daugther. Ive been playing with our EyePet all over Christmas, and it really is a Wow game. It works perfectly and is both easy and a challege at the same time. All the challenges award a bronze silver and gold on completion, so the difficulty ramps up, if you want it too. For all you Trophy hunters this is going to be a real challenge to get a platinum!!! It really does show what the PS3 can achieve, and dares to be different, go on give it a go, it really is a wonderfull game. Drawing a car on paper and having it pop onto your floor whilst using the controller to remote drive it is fantastic to watch. You do need reasonable lighting, but I have been playing at night under artificail lighting without any problems, do not let this put you off, you would be missing out on a truly unique experiance.
