Other games available are Asobi (a pet like robot who can recognise players through facial recognition), Air Hockey (a game that requires two controllers) and My Alien Buddy (a green alien who flies around in a spaceship knocking over structures and beaming up cows). ![]() There is also an app (Toy Maker) available for download on your phone or tablet that allows you draw 2D shapes and send them into the PlayRoom, where they will be rendered in 3D. ![]() There are some really cool features such as if you wave at the AR Bots they will wave back or you can vacuum them back into the controller by clicking the touch pad. You then have to swipe the touchpad forward, which sends the individual bots flying out of the controller and onto your living room floor. The girls thought it was really fun when they shook the controller and could feel them crashing into each other. Before you begin you will see a flying robot called Asobi beam lots of tiny bots into your DualShock 4 controller. The first game we played was AR Bots (probably the best game out of the four), which essentially turns your living room into a playground for little robots. With improved graphics for the animations on screen, it looks truly amazing. Previously the picture quality on the PS Eye camera looked a little grainy, but with the new PS4 camera everything is now in HD. I’ve previously experienced similar offerings from Sony with the PlayStation Eye and Move controller on the EyePet and Wonderbook games, which I thought were very good demonstrations of the technology, it’s just a shame that not many games were developed. The PlayRoom is Sony’s latest and newest augmented reality game. I knew this would be a brilliant experience not just for me but for the whole family. ![]() I on the other hand couldn’t say no, as I desperately wanted to play the pre-installed game “The PlayRoom”. It’s likely that most PlayStation 4 owners have chosen not to buy the PlayStation Camera accessory, which is understandable given that not many launch games have made use of it and it costs about £55.00.
