Among other additions to the console’s base experience, the forthcoming PS4 System Software Update 4.50 will bring improved tracking and 3D Blu-ray playback to Sony’s PlayStation VR headset. In time for the launch of Farpoint and the PSVR Aim controller, the PS4 System Software Update 4.50 will launch with tracking improvements that apply to objects tracked with...
Tilt Brush and Kingspray are both great for unleashing your creative side when it comes to VR painting, but they’re not much use as professional applications. That’s not a slight against them, but there’s a small market that could make genuine use of a painting app for the working world. I got a small glimpse...
GNOG is… uh… weird. Totally weird, actually. Like really, really weird. So weird, I don’t really know where to begin describing it. “Was this inspired by those huge Olmec heads like Xtapolapocetl from The Simpsons?,” I inquired while playing. “No, we were thinking more Mighty Max and Polly Pocket,” Ko_Op studio director Saleem Dabbous fired...
From price cuts to new games, Oculus had so much to announce at GDC last week that a few of its reveals slipped under the radar. One such announcement was for Talking With Ghosts, the latest project from Oculus Story Studio. Unlike its previous releases, Talking With Ghosts is not a single VR film but...
Over the last week we learned that by spending essentially $300 to purchase three Vive Trackers, you will be able to bring your legs, feet and torso into VR — so you can kick a dinosaur in the face without even looking at it. Dinosaur kicking for $300 is certainly funny, but it’s also a great example...
Developed by Epic Games and with a budget that nearly matched the original Gears of War, Robo Recall [Review: 7.5/10] is probably the Oculus Rift’s biggest exclusive so far. But a new mod is making sure HTC Vive owners don’t miss out. You may well have heard of CrossVR before. He’s one of the developers...
As if you couldn’t tell by the fact a lot of people spent a large part of 2016 playing it, Niantic’s Pokemon GO was a huge success. The augmented reality (AR) app took the world by storm in the second half of the year and raked in tonnes of cash as a result. But here’s...
The Oculus Rift features built-in headphones, and the HTC Vive will get them soon too, but PlayStation VR (PSVR) owners still have to plug in their own headphones or ear phones for the most immersive experiences on PlayStation 4. The Mantis VR wants to change that. This new pair of headphones, announced last week by...
Moving around in VR isn’t a solved problem. In 5 years, the best games and experiences won’t be using point-and-click teleportation. At GDC 2017 last week, I saw two promising new types of experimental locomotion in VR. First was Sprint Vector, which greatly surprised me at its comfort, speed, and fun. And then there was VELOCIBEASTS....
GUEST: We received our first market-ready VR headset at Madrona almost one year ago now, and since then, we have done VR (Vive and Rift) and AR (HoloLens) demos for over 100 people who have stopped by our office to check out the next big computing platform. We have done demos for kids, parents, grandparents,...
