How Virtual Reality Will Change Gaming

"Joyless cynics might argue it's not quite Tron yet. VR is still in its teething stage, still an experiment; a bunch of different companies and entrepreneurs flinging ideas and cash at the same problem from different directions, trying to get us closer to our holodeck future. But why now? Why, after years of resignation to arcades and horrors like the Virtual Boy are these start-ups able to challenge billion-dollar companies for control of gamers' living rooms?"

this is the moment we have all been waiting for.
soon we are able to use this technology and fulfill the things that mankind has only dreamed of up until this point
finally, we can have pornography in Virtual Reality settings!

I'll believe that it can change gaming once it reaches Sword Art Online level.

I mean everything now is cool but playing a VRMMORPG would be just about the best thing ever.

AshleeEmerson3838d ago

I would agree but after seeing SWAO episode 1 I'm not so sure about that.

RedHawk023837d ago

Lol. I don't mind being stuck in a VRMMORPG where my life is on the line... maybe >.>

greylantern3838d ago

THIS is my true 'next gen'. Consumer version can't come soon enough.

The Oculus Rift needs a much higher resolution screen if it wants to avoid being a gimmick.

That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.

Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.

But it's EA. They don't think.

Babadook7387d ago

I agree. It would sell better on PSVR2 right now.

Knushwood Butt388d ago (Edited 388d ago )

A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?

Abnor_Mal388d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow388d ago

That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.

Abnor_Mal388d ago

Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.

I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.

Knushwood Butt387d ago

Just watched the trailer of Low-Fi. Most definitely on my radar.

Although I never owned an oculus, I played the demo for this at an electronics store. Pretty impressive in an early goings of VR title.
