Microsoft's answer to Sony's EyeToy camera, the affordable Xbox Live Vision Camera for Xbox 360 may not yet be a must-have Xbox 360 accessory, but we suspect that as Microsoft upgrades Xbox Live to include more Vision features, it will be.

We got a kick out of finally being able to see our opponents, and think that the Vision will add some very interesting new dynamics to the Xbox Live community. Grab a Vision and embrace the insanity we say. Just try to keep your pants on, okay?

You can’t use it with very many games yet, but it is pretty safe to say that in the future it will be used more and more and the usefulness of the camera will definitely be proven. ...The Xbox Live Vision Camera isn’t hot fire quite yet, but it will be, so I would recommend it for a purchase.

This is a pretty decent little webcam – it's just that, without games to fool around with, it feels like a low-end PC webcam plugged into your Xbox. EyeToy this ain't.
