Huh, didn't know anything like this was coming out for the 360. Forgive me if it's old news. Judging by the comments people are leaving, the PS3 will also have this, but that's beside the point. Seems like one of those neat features that I'll use maybe once during the system's lifespan (Hi, voice chat in original Xbox dashboard!).

I saw the video option in the menu, but I never thought to use it. It's like MSN webcam usage with a 360.

Yeah, can't wait to see that 40 year old fatass with no shirt on while I'm playing him Texas Hold 'Em Poker.

For all he knows YOU could be a forty-year-old fatass! =o

Meh. Who uses the private chat function anyway right now?

Also, lol, his Gamertag is 'GiantCrabKiller'.

As long as I can use this to put my face on characters, it shall be awesome. Otherwise, pretty useless.

I never thought of that! I remember playing tony hawks underground on ps2. You email the developers a picture and then you get a code and map your face onto the skater. I thought that was so awesome, and expected more games to use it. But none did.

I dunno. In that poker game it has a use. Nothing else springs to mind, but still. There's the gesture recognition, and Eye Toy ripoffs.

Gersture recognition is actually pretty cool. Just for menus alone. Still though, it would be sweet to play some online game and have your face on your character.

Ha, I use it all the time. It's definitely one of my favorite features.

Yeah I use it to. It's helpful when playing a single player game and you need advice...
