Sony | Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) is pleased to announce the release this September of SpyToyTM on the PlayStation®2. Developed by the EyeToy® team at the SCE London Studios, SpyToy is the ideal companion for all budding detectives and aspiring secret agents.
SpyToy offers a variety of 'Surveillance Modes' that makes for a fun security system. With new 'face-recognition' technology, SpyToy allows you to create unique profiles that you, and only you, can unlock! Monitor who goes in and out of your room and leave a personalised alarm for that sibling who's always 'borrowing' your personal things. Make video and audio recordings of the evidence that you can later store onto Memory Card, where it can be fast forwarded, rewound, played in slow motion and edited to suit your mission.
SpyToy also allows you to capture digital still images of your targets, while new and improved technology doubles the EyeToy's photo resolution to 640x480, delivering fantastic picture quality!
As well as surveillance, SpyToy also offers a suite of games, all themed around and inspired by the world of espionage. Players will have to negotiate missions where they will need to use photo fit, break codes, sky dive, disarm bombs and zoom into locations via satellite to try and uncover a criminal mastermind intent on taking over the world!
