VRFocus - With the Oculus Rift virtual reality (VR) head-mounted display (HMD) yet to date or even reveal a consumer version, developers working with the device need to take every possible chance to gain some exposure. Now TIGA, a UK-based non-profit trade association representing the videogame industry, is giving one VR developer the chance to showcase its work at a major exhibition set to take place in a few months’ time in Newcastle. Crucially, the competition is free for any VR developer to enter.
Nine virtual reality games and projects have been shortlisted for the annual TIGA Games Industry Awards in 2023.
Morels: Homestead, a relaxing game in which you can create your own unique homestead, is available now for PC VR.
Electronic Arts has confirmed that while F1 23 will support PC VR it will not support PSVR 2 on PlayStation 5.
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.
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?
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.
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.
VR is about to take off, simply because it not only being promoted by the Oculus Rift developers, Sony or, even Facebook. But because even major manufacturers as well as smaller entities are also following suit. The push has become alot bigger than it was back in the day when VR was in its infancy and the technology has become a lot more powerful.
