Anyone have PlayStation VR? I started playing Everybody’s Golf VR and it’s amazing.
I think VR is fucking amazing.
People that talk about immersiveness that haven’t tried VR don’t know what immersive is.
VR support might convince me to buy Star Wars: Squadrons and I, typically, have a policy to never give EA or Disney money for any reason.
I’ve been playing Astro Bot. It’s amazing, possibly one of the best games ever
Astrobot kicks ass.
The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is, probably, the best game on the platform but, before that, I would have said Astrobot
I’ll have to try out Saints & Sinners. Maybe once I finish Astro Bot. I feel like VR is really the future of gaming. I wish more companies would focus on it. I feel like VR is the kind of giant leap in gaming technology we haven’t had since the Playstation and N64 took gaming from 2d to 3d. I would like to see Sony make improvements on their VR tech and for devs to take more of an interest in it.
I disagree with “It’s the future of gaming.”.
Some games don’t need VR and it’s so different from traditional gaming it’s not gonna replace it.
But I don’t think it’s going away any time soon. I could see Sony dropping support because all they do anymore is make dumb decisions but the VR, itself, isn’t going anywhere.I do feel it slowly gaining momentum.
It’s no longer just 2-3 hour games made by 1 or 2 people
I’m not saying I want traditional gaming to go away. I just think VR is where devs can do things that haven’t been done before. And console technology hasn’t really made that possible since the dawning of 3d games on PS1 and N64. Since then, the only real advances have been in graphics…until VR came along. That being said, even when I was enjoying 3d games on PS1 like Tomb Raider, I was still enjoying 2d games like Mega Man X4 and Castlevania Symphony of the Night. So I definitely am not saying that I want to see traditional games go away just because there’s an awesome new technology that devs can play with. I just meant that any meaningful advances in the way we experience games now are probably going to be in VR. I mean, Astrobot feels like no other platformer I’ve played before. It’s obviously got Mario influences but it does things with VR that make it feel like something new
We see movies and TV shows that show pure virtual reality that is just like real life in things like Star Trek with their holo decks. We are probably a looooooooooooooooooong way from seeing that type of technology in real life, but things like PSVR and the Oculus Rift are the first steps
