As the days pass, we draw closer to a potentially seismic change in the PC gaming space - the arrival of Virtual Reality experiences, brought to life via the Oculus Rift and HTC's Vive. And for many, one key question needs to be comprehensively addressed - whether their existing gaming PCs can handle the strenuous requirements of the VR experience. And if they don't, what hardware will need an upgrade.
Viveport, the VR retail platform from HTC is now giving developers 90% of their game revenue, instead of a 70/30 spilt like Steam.
It could be free and it wouldn't matter at this point. There isn't really a PCVR Market and I say that as a PCVR user. It is modders and enthusiasts with a few retail products on Steam.
Are you planning a Halloween Party this year? How about those friends and family that live far away? Vive has a plan for you.
I'm pretty sure everyone is going to the VR chat Halloween Party already.
Morels: Homestead, a relaxing game in which you can create your own unique homestead, is available now for PC VR.
More than VR ready. Problem is i think its going to be a Fad. Personally i had Nvidia 3D i would never game wearing glasses more than 15-20 mins. Eyes would be stressed out too.
I feel VR having screens so close to your eyes will be stressful and wearing a helmet and gaming just wont be comfy in the long run. Neither will most people afford it.
I think at this the best option as a PC gamer if you have the hardware is to get a 4k screen. Believe its one of the best upgrades you can make. I personally made the jump to 5k it really is a different experience. Probably one of the best graphics upgrade i have made in my 20 years of gaming on the PC.
Not yet but it will be next month. Upgrading my cpu from i5-2500 to i7-6700, already have a GTX 980 Classified and 16GB Ram.
I exceed all the specs but have a gtx 960... not good enough?
