Sega have just announced Dreameye, an Internet digital video camera for Dreamcast. Using Dreameye, you'll be able to send a variety of visual and audio information to friends via email. With an Internet connection and direct telephone number dialling, Dreameye also offers a fun video chat function. All we need now is a Dreamcast version of Quake III Arena. We'll let you know the price and release date as soon as we're informed.

What on earth happened to last week's bumper selection of demos? Our team of boffins broke the database, that's what! Well they've fixed it now so you here they are again - Croc 2, Tower of the Ancients and Missile Command. Worth the wait? We reckon so. Latest additions to the Hints and Tips database include The Sims on PC, Medal of Honor on PlayStation, Knockout Kings 2000 on N64 and Virtua Striker 2 on Dreamcast. We've also got patches and updates for all the latest games.

With so few games on the horizon (eh?) and little reason to get excited about the launch of PlayStation2 (what?), the Future Gamer Chat Forum regulars have focused more on the trivial. The most popular thread of the week was "What's a good book to read?", started by Jimmy. Plenty of books where tossed into the fire before The Beach, Complicity and 1984 emerged as the top picks. There was also an "Is Star Trek Voyager any good" debate. Most of us believe that it's a load of pap, although that bird with the metallic face decoration and large norks isn't half bad. There were a few game-related threads - they were just well hidden under a pile of nonsensical babbling. Kevin was keen to know what all the fuss is about Grandia and Final Fantasy Tactics - if you've ever talked to Felix you'll know far too much about both of these games. Big Dave was desperate, like all of us, to get his grubby mitts on ISS Pro Evolution. The PlayStation (are we allowed to use that word?) version is due out on February 25, fingers crossed. And finally, Big Nick revealed that he doesn't deathmatch. Shame on you Nick! The Future Gamer Clan will hunt you down like the dog you are.

If you'd like to join the lynch mob, pop over and have a chat on the Forum. Just don't ask us how to get one of those Future Gamer fleeces!
