This looks interesting. Would've been cool to have a proper thread about it.



Did you honestly expect that though?

So it is doomed to fail.

Developers won't develop for it because not enough people will own it, and no one will want to own it due to lack developer support.

You sure in the hell have no business calling out anyone as a fanboy.

Now shut up and tell us more about how the cloud is a big lie.

If he's a fan boy of anything, he's a Nintendo fan boy.

You mean The Cloud that can make the Xbone five times more powerful? Yeah I'm calling bullshite on that.

Now The Cloud that can offload the brain dead AI in Titanfall, yes that one is the truth.

Nope, not even for a second. Saw it was 3 pages and only skimmed the first.

Project Agent Smith would have made more sense for the name, since he was actually part of the Matrix and what not.

Morpheus removed the wool from Neo's eyes, this seems like the opposite.

I like where companies are taking VR, but I just hope it doesn't end up like this peripheral piece of equipment, that like you said, wasn't forced down the throat of gamers.

Meh...if it works well and is decently priced people will buy it and devs will start using it more.

Kinect IMO has a ceiling of how useful it can be when it comes to gaming.

If it can be used/done well with normal, non-VR exclusive games, then it will be popular and successful. I haven't messed with VR stuff myself, but I hear good things.

The anti-Sony posts because UH started the thread is very dumb. Edit: I looked back and he didn't start the thread.

VR is dumb and a niche market right now. Who the hell is going to ever have an extended gaming period with that ridiculous thing on their heard.

People will buy it and it will be cool for like 15 minutes.

3D Tv hasn't caught on because no one wants to wear those glasses all the damn time.

Y'all are seriously telling me a bunch of people are actually gonna buy these things.

Video games are interactive. The only interaction with a tv is channel/up down then watching something with someone else eyes. In a video game a I can see what I want and go where I want.

Yeah, but I'll be able to control my cyborg clone with it. I can get into all sorts of crazy antics without any consequences, and those experiences will be as real to my brain as if I had actually performed the in real life.
