Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review
With the EyeToy: Groove software, Sony's EyeToy peripheral (a USB camera that plugs into the PlayStation2 console, available separately) is given a remarkable new use. Simply put, EyeToy: Groove lets you dance and--get this--watch live footage of your efforts on your TV screen. Furthermore, Groove challenges you to keep pace with its soundtrack and doesn't require the use of any controller.

EyeToy: Groove is simplicity itself. Players stand in front of the EyeToy and TV, and move in time with the on-screen indications. Keep up with the beat and success is guaranteed; dance sloppily and it's Game Over. There's a total of 26 tracks to dance along with--including hits from Junior Senior, Madonna, Fatboy Slim and Elvis. Suffice it to say that Groove was given that name for a very good reason.

It's also possible to boogie on down with friends. At certain points, players must dance in sync on-screen together, while at other times players must alternately jump in and out of the spotlight. With a few friends and the necessary equipment, Groove is a sure-fire hit. It can be pretty embarrassing, especially during some of the cheesier tracks (such as "Hooray Hooray It's A Cheeky Holiday"), but there's no denying the fun and all-round grooviness to be found on this disc. --Jonti Davies

4.0 out of 5 stars Only if you like dance game, 22 Nov 2003
By S. Wibulseth (Birmingham UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Don't think of this game as a sequel to the first EYETOY:PLAY game; you won't get the varieties of games offered there.THIS GAME IS FOR THE HARD-CORE DANCE FANS ONLY

If you've played the first EYETOY:PLAY then this game is like the minigame "Beat Freak" only more indepth. There are better descriptions of the game elsewhere if you are interested<

All you get is a typical rhythm/dance game(using the eye toy of course), with a few party modes that seems to be added on as an afterthought. The songs selection is a good one, rather than going with an all-out chart hits that would age disgracefully very quickly, ther is a good representation of classic dance floor anthems. As others have pointed out, there're some daft tunes like the Cheeky Girls but I've found that although that the particular songs maybe questionnable musically it doesn't appear to be hampering its dancability in this game and I enjoyed that very song(in this game) quite a lot

The game does get monotonous after a while, and the experience is not helped by cumbersome user interface (the saving menu is quite irritating). This game only does one thing well which is to make you DANCE! You choose a song and dance to it, there is no career mode to progress through, the only goal is to dance to perfection.

If you liked Eyetoy:play, keep playing that, wait for the next installment, don't buy this game unless you liked "Beat Freak" from Eyetoy :Play.</br>

If you're a dance fanatic who has played dancemat game before but haven't played Eyetoy. well this is just the perfect game for you, especially if you have some dance mat game already, it's quite a different from playing dancemat games, it's not as physically demanding as jumping up and down on your feet but it's enjoyeable nontheless. And while you're at it get the original Eyetoy:groove as well, you wont regret it, it's better value than to get this game and a separate camera anyway

Don't buy this game if you've never sampled rhythm/dance game before; it could turn out not to be your cup of tea, if you're interested in what's all the fuzz about eyetoy is about, get the orignal eyetoy groove, there's a better varieties of game and one you are bound to at least like

To sum up, Don't buy this game if you're either a Dance or Eyetoy Virgin

5.0 out of 5 stars Get your mates in, this game is a great laugh., 9 Nov 2003
By A Customer
It's Sony's first stand-alone EyeToy game, and it has to be said that it is a LOT of fun, especially if you get your family or mates in for a bit of a competition. Deciding to capitalise on the dance game craze, Studio London have made a dancing game that is a mix of Samba De Amigo (the Dreamcast classic) and Japanese dance game Para Para Paradise, except with good music that you will actually recognise.

There are 20 licensed tunes to start with (from Sister Sledge and Earth, Wind and Fire, to the Village People, by way of Junior Senior, Liberty X and Fatboy Slim, amongst others), plus 5 hidden tunes to unlock and it must be said that the game can be pretty hard at first (compared to Samba). There's also a chill-out mode, which features a number of music videos from the songs in the game, as well as a Calorie Counter mode (just like Dancing Stage/DDR).

The gameplay is fun, and works quite well, and there's even a 2 player mode. There's amusing use of the EyeToy to record, and then playback your freestyle moves when you have finished a tune, as well as taking pictures of you whilst you play.

The only complaint I'd have is over the menu layouts (they can be a bit fiddly at times), and that you have to be REALLY "on beat" with the songs to get perfect scores. But that's just a reason to put the practise in.

Overall, a great second outing for the EyeToy. Can't wait to see other games that use it, as well as the rumoured EyeToy Sports game, due sometime next year.

2.0 out of 5 stars A great idea unimaginatively executed, 17 Nov 2003
By PhillyG (London UK) - See all my reviews
Oh dear. The Eye Toy was such a great invention, delivering a truly new gameplay experience (an overused phrase on games which truly did apply there) - but this is a huge disappointment. This really is 'just' a dancemat game re-programmed for the Eye Toy, with the 5-minute novelty of seeing your ridiculous face on screen while prancing about like a fool adding very little to the experience.

The problem with ALL 'dance' games is their either limited and/or dated catalogue of tunes, and this is quite a mixed bag. Liberty X's brand new tune "Jumpin" sits slightly uncomfortably alongside older tracks such as Madonna's "Music" (although undoubtedly a great tune), Fatboy Slim's "Praise You", and highly naff tracks such as the Cheeky Girls (Cheeky Holiday). Whatever your dance music tastes, they'll be at least ONE likeable suspect, but after just 20 minutes or so, you're left saying: "...Now what?"

The real problem is that there just isn't enough variety or depth here to keep your interest. Okay, so my experience was a solo one, and half the fun of these types of games is very much in the 'party', 'family' or 'after the pub' catchment groups. But even so, several tunes and a few tired video effects later, you WILL feel as if they could've done more with the whole Eye Toy concept.

If you're a true fan of dancing games, then this might just be worth the money - otherwise, stick to the dance/beat mini-games in the original Eye Toy Play.

Eye Toy Play showed us what was possible. Eye Toy Groove is a transparent attempt at making some quick cash. Let's just hold out hope that somebody comes up with a really GREAT application for the Eye-Toy in the near future.
