EyeToy: Play 3


EyeToy: Play 3 is the third game in the series, for up to four players. The camera takes snapshots during the game for your player and is a requirement to play the game. Unlike previous EyeToy: Play games, Play 3 was not released in North America. Unlike the previous games, 4 players were able to play on screen at the same time as opposed to taking it in turns like the previous games.
