While EyePet was tragically delayed in the US, joining the PS3's stacked 2010 line up, it did hit shelves earlier this week in Europe.  The game looks to be a bit of a surprise hit, according to the popular online retailer Amazon.  The £24.99 EyePet/PSEye combo has topped the PS3 charts, leaving tremendously popular titles like Uncharted 2, Modern Warfare 2, and FIFA 10 in it's dust.  The game/Eye Toy combo places at #3 overall.

EyePet is an interactive agumented reality game that lets you take care of a cute monkey/kitten kind of creature.  The game was expected to have a lot of casual appeal, and it seems like it's hit it's niche well in the UK.  An exact release date for the North American version has yet to be determined.
