Xbox 360 Live Vision Camera Reviews
No sir, I did not buy it for my XBOX 360. It's a webcam. I bought it for my iMac. Good "game" overall. Given everything, I didn't even use it for a game.
Basically, it's for claymation and such. But no. I bought it because it's a good webcam, but more importantly, it's Mac-compatible. I found it funny how it asked me how fun this "game" was.Let's see, the controls were jerky, the graphics were bad.
A green light ring illuminates around the base of the lens to warn you that the camera is on. The picture quality is excellent, very sharp and low light sensitivity perfectly adequate. The inexpensive XBox 360 Live Vision camera is natively recognized by current versions of Mac OSX, without having to install any drivers: just plug it in, and you can immediately video conference using iChat, Skype, etc. Focus is manual (unlike the iSight, which has powered focusing and can be set to autofocus mode). Unfortunately, the connector is just non-standard enough that it only works on XBox, but it's an extra toy for the same price. A perfect, inexpensive way to give your older Mac, Mac mini or MacPro video conferencing capability. Also in the box: a mono headset with mike for XBox. All in all, great value for Mac users.
I was on the fence about this camera, but decided to go for it when I read that it can also be used on a PC. This is my first webcam and I've had a lot of fun with it. That being said, there isn't much on LIVE that you can use it with unless you love UNO for long periods. The lack of titles that can use this camera should deter anyone who wants to be anonymous on LIVE and not reveal your mug. Of course, you could point the camera at something else and still play the few games out there.
I actually do not use this webcam for XBOX. This one is GREAT because it is one of the few (and maybe the only) webcam that you can actually just plug in and use right away on a MAC. P.S. I have a MAC laptop that does not have a built in camera (its a Powerbook) and waned a Webcam. I can't change the stars on this rating, but I would TOTALLY rate this camera a 5. I would totally tell anyone with a MAC to get this camera. There are tons of cameras out there, but almost none of them work on a MAC.
The first one I recieved wasnt working, not in the xbox or the PC. I just recieved the second one yesterday and it seems to work off and on. I will plug it into my PC to see if it works and try to determine if the problem is my 360 or a lose connection or just another bad cam.
