Shacknews sat down with Jason Rubin, VP of Content at Oculus, to talk about the company's relationship with third party developers and how he sees the VR software market going forward.
The Nerd Stash: "Some of the best PS1 games of all time are the ones that put the PlayStation 1 on the map and contributed to gaming as we know it."
These were all excellent. I want to add Ghost in the Shell, Road Rash, and parasite Eve.
Atari has acquired Intellivision. The company announced today that it had acquired its long-time rival, ending one of the original console rivalries, dating back to the 1970s.
Wow.... two of my earliest gaming platforms. All they need is Coleco to round things out.
This is like Nintendo buying SEGA.
YES! Colecovision was my start! I came to know Mario there in Donkey Kong before the NES was even a thing. :)
Good piece of history here.
edit: I wanted to read it but the cookies pop up is stopping me.
This was just before my time. I do remember my mom's friend having one all dusty in her apartment back in the day.

People forget that console wars are part of the history of this industry. The console wars were started by competitive companies all the way back then and continued through Sega vs Nintendo, Jaguar/3DO/NeonGeo, and PlayStation vs Nintendo and Xbox.
These companies are across oceans and competing for the same business. These companies created the console wars, not crazy fanboys.
Console wars are fun. It's fun to be a fanboy too. I don't get what's wrong with any of this as entertainment.
Young kid school yard banter was fun. 30-40+ year olds still doing it is just disturbing. Many my age (50+) grew out of that a long time ago. We may still have our preferences, but we also embrace a more central position because there is a lot to enjoy on a wide range of genres and systems.
You'll understand one day and then things will forever change.
I had both. Snafu on Intellivision was addicting as hell. Also had Colecovision which had Time Pilot. Combat was probably my favorite Atari game and both Atari and Intellivision had similar games like Pitfall and Jungle Hunt. It’s been so long I don’t really remember which game I liked bettter out of those but I did play my Intellivision a bit more than Atari though I’m not sure why besides Snafu. That was 40+ years ago damn I’m old lol
Ahh you're making me all nostalgic! Not old enough to have played these on original hardware but my first console was a bootleg console from Costco that had a bunch of intellivision and atari games. Then had a lot of fun with intellivision and atari collections on ps1 and 2.
Snafu was one of my favourite games and me and my partner still occasionally play it to this day
The SNES and Game Boy physical copies of Straynus’ spiritual successor to Maniac Mansion, Cronela’s Mansion, have been revealed.
"We announced that we had spent $250 million to date and that we were going to spend $250 million more at least. So that is not a final number, that is just what we are going to spend."
good old facebook, endless amounts of cash. so i wonder, how much are the other vr makers investing?
