Amazing how far this story has spread with zero research, it seems. Ho hum.

GameBase reviews of eye-gaze games: 
http://www.gamebase.info/magazine/category/18531
OneSwitch Blog info on eye-gaze games: 
http://switchgaming.blogspot.com/search/label/eye%20trackers - that includes 
House of the Dead, FIFA and 3D car race games.

One of a number of web-cam based eye-trackers (this one is free):

Excellent blog on gaze interaction: http://gazeinteraction.blogspot.com/
COGAIN seems to have removed easy access to their page on games, but 
hopefully it will return: http://www.cogain.org/

Hope that's useful,

Cheers,

Barrie
