Registered 17 years agoWhen I first got my Rift I think I spent easily £100+ in the first day or two. Totally worth it. I've been a bit more selective on the Vive though. .gif)

Registered 12 years agohehe. yeah but I also only just bought this pc and got a whole load of normal games for it too. Ho hum!
Seems the brookhaven experiment has no movement controls. That's a bit fail for me, movement is important. -

Registered 13 years agoThere's also a game called Holoball which plays out like a cross between Pong and Squash. In neon.
It's pretty cool, but kinda knackering. -

Depends on the game. Brookhaven (which I've just tried for the first time myself) is a wave based shooter that wants you to feel trapped. And it fucking works - love how you make no mention of how you shat your pants first time one of the bad guys lunged for you! Or is that why you wanted movement - to retreat at high speed?!

It is, at least, room scale. So you can move around in the confines of your play area. -

Registered 12 years agoWell I'm now completely convinced vr is not a fad or gimmic. It's the future. No doubt about it
There are minor things to workout but it's ready as is to provide amazing new ways to play games and it's only going to get better. -

Registered 17 years agoMinecraft in VR via Vivecraft blew me away.
I'm not a huge MC fan, but seeing your creations in VR takes it to another level.
Actually pretty nervy when a zombie is as tall as you running towards!

That sounds good, so I take it you need to own the game on pc and then download a free patch from that site? -

Registered 17 years agoOfficial support is coming to Rift sometime soon, I think. Not sure if it'll be markedly different to what vivecraft is, but worth bearing in mind. -

Registered 12 years ago@Phattso when are the rift controls coming out? Motion controls seem such an integral part of the experience in VR. The magic of holding that torch in Vanishing Realms or swinging your sword / shooting your bow, it's just awesome.
This work day needs to bloody end. -

Registered 17 years agoSometime in Q4 this year. October/November seems a smart bet. They've lined up something like 30+ Touch enabled proper, full, complete games for launch as well. Some will be ports from Vive, most are Rift timed exclusives or first party titles.
Should be a good end to the year. -

Registered 12 years agoCool. Should mean they do a lot more cross platform dev in general hopefully. -
Picked up tabletop simulator, going to try it and the DOTA2 VR viewer tonight 👍 -

Registered 13 years agoI've just been playing Adrift for a little while... I'll be honest, so far it's been awesome. I can see how it could make you queasy, but it's no vomit comet - next to Windlands it's a walk in the park. -

Registered 15 years agoFuck that over 10% rise in price. Fuck that price being 45% more than the currency difference was too.
I'll be buying from overseas, if I bother. -

Registered 15 years agoSo long as it's done reasonably, fine. I expect increases.
Not 45% over currency fluctuation though. That's ridiculous. -
Out of interest, what are you basing your figures on? The Euro price? The dollar price?
