Logitech Quickcam Communicate Deluxe

25 Jun, 2008, 3:10 pm IST | Gagan Gupta |


Speaking of cool, any Quickcam review would be incomplete without mentioning the effects that come with the Quickcam application. The application uses the webcam's face tracking capabilities to add effects to your webcam conversations like complete overlays:

Wrestler
Gorilla

There are also some simple (and less system intensive) effects like the ones below:

Groucho
Beer Hat

And some awesome video effects thrown in the mix:

Scratchy Horror
Fish-eye

As if the pre-installed effects weren't enough, there are tons of downloadable effects available on the Quickcam website.

At Rs 5500, the Quickcam Communicate Deluxe is (as the name suggests) a 'deluxe' webcam. Of course, not everyone would see the logic in buying this when there are many other options available for a lot less, but it eventually comes down to quality. Few webcams can offer the Quickcam's flawless video and audio quality, and the bundled software/hardware features definitely make it a worthwhile buy.

It's quite short and it doesn't have any sort of versus multiplayer but The Darkness II is a polished and brutal shooter you should definitely check out, especially if you like ripping dudes to shreds.
