RLLD 3,455 Posted January 21, 2021 It’s ok, there are some decent games. And there are also immersive travel experiences, other stuff, it’s pretty cool Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MTSkiBum 1,594 Posted January 21, 2021 I wanted to play skyrim in vr, you can do it on the Oculus but will require some IT work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frozenbeernuts 1,652 Posted January 21, 2021 Half life is probably one of the best games for it. VR was pre infantile stages when it first came out when I was a kid. Its still in the baby stages imo. Imagine the polish of current console or computer games, then imagine how far VR really has to go to get to that point Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
titans&bucs&bearsohmy! 2,745 Posted January 21, 2021 I am curious about the psvr2 that will be forthcoming... But I kind of suspect it will be one of those things that's cool for an hour and then I never use again. And I read something about vr games on ps5 being controlled by me actually moving. Fock that, if I wanted to move I'd actually go outside. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted January 21, 2021 I found the porn or at least some. Not quite as awe inspiring as I would hope. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GobbleDog 816 Posted January 21, 2021 Virtual Reality will never be mainstream in our lifetimes. As Frozen said, it's got A LOT of polishing to do. Even if the graphics were incredible, there's another big problem.... nobody wants to move around for hours while gaming, not to mention wearing something over their face. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it's true. Someday it'll be useful for work related stuff or taking tours of homes/places/etc. But gaming wise, forget it.

Instead, i see more of augmented reality becoming popular. They already had some success with Pokémon Go. So I can see more games like that coming out.

I think VR and AR are closer than you think to being very big players in work and gaming. I believe that it is within the next 10 years that it will be mainstream.

Sounds interesting, but the graphics better be incredible to sell those tickets. Otherwise, people would just rather watch it on tv and not wear goggles for HOURS.

GobbleDog 816 Posted January 21, 2021 Sometimes technology just doesn't increase the way people expect. Remember that iconic photo of the 1950's audience wearing 3d glasses? If you'd asked that audience - "what will movies be like in 70 years?" they would've predicted all kinds of crazy futuristic stuff. Nope. It's still the same. And if you wanna watch 3d, you still have to wear those damn glasses. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Patriotsfatboy1 1,432 Posted January 21, 2021 This is why I think you will see things happen sooner than later. Microsoft and Facebook are heavily engaged in this and now Apple is hopping in.
