Burnout 5 using HD Eye Toy

Wasn't a Burnout title just released on the PSP and PS2? Burninator or Dominatrix or something? We kid, we know of Burnout Dominator but those are two unfortunate words that can easily be blended together thanks to the impossibly heroic and awesome quest of Trogdor. Anyway, we haven't heard much about the PS3 Burnout 5, so let's get an update.

Criterion's director of design, Alex Ward, talked about the direction being taken for the game: "How you use the controller is key, how you play the game online, how you use the HD Eye Toy and the 360 Vision Camera online is really important." Hmm, we have no idea what to expect. Will they somehow transpose you into the driver's seat for online distribution/replays? That'd be... weird. But we can't really think of any other use with such limited knowledge of 1) the game and 2) the HD Eye Toy. Can you think of anything?

1. I'm kind of expecting it to be something as simple as when you send someone flying over the edge of a mountain, a little box will pop up and show you their look of despair.

2. Definitely wouldn't be to add you as a driver inside the car - that'd make the crashes extremely graphic and push the game's rating to at least Teen.

3. First PS3 game with microtransactions...you pull the credit card from your pocket and the HD camera scans the card number and signature and bills you accordingly.

4. Has he actually SEEN the HDEyetoy? We haven't heard anything about it in ages. Considering Burnout 5 is suppose to come out in a couple months, you'd think we'd at least have seen a blurry picture of the HDEyetoy by now.

I've been putting off buying a logitech webcam to see what the price/stats of the HDEyetoy is. But I'm getting impatient!

5. In a threespeech interview Phil mentions the HD Eyetoy as recently as Mar 16 as 'coming soon'...

Also, in the beyon3d forums claimed EA staff say they are working with it already...
