webcam integration in team communication in videogames

lots of computers have webcam, even consoles as well (especially with kinects in xbox 360, and the webcam for ps3)

For many games, why not embed the video feeds into the HUD interfaces of games. For example grainy video transmission in mecha game's HUD.

This would really help provide some measure of immersion, and give the programmers flexibility to integrate it into the game via video filters.
