This is how the Resident Evil 4 remake was reinvented again for VR.
The interviewees say they implemented all the elements they wanted for Resident Evil 4 VR. Once they wrapped up the project, they realized VR was well-suited to the franchise. While they didn’t discuss specifics, Kumazawa says they “plan to undertake more challenges in the future.”
Moreover, Kumazawa adds that one of the reasons for releasing the VR versions of Village and 4 as free DLC is that the team wants to try to help expand the VR market. Yamakawa, personally speaking, joined the project as a director because of his enthusiasm for VR.
While conditions such as motion sickness continue to be a concern for players to access VR, Yamakawa says there’s been substantial improvement in comparison to the original PlayStation VR headset.

A new trailer for Leeroy shows a first taste of the completely crazy VR multiplayer spectacle for Quest and PC VR.
British developer studio Global Seer Initiative has released the official announcement trailer for its upcoming VR multiplayer game "Leeroy". The title will be released later this year for Meta Quest 3, Quest 2 and Quest Pro, as well as PC VR via Steam.
According to the developer, "Leeroy" promises more than 100 "brilliant, bizarre and baffling" mini-game challenges. These can be played alone or online with up to six people. The game concept is based on constantly changing rules and scenarios, where "nothing makes sense".
Announced mini-games include pelting tomatoes at peasants, rewriting the laws of physics, space cat races, and making coffee for a dog.
The Global Seer Initiative describes "Leeroy" as a combination of high-tech gaming and low-brow humor. Interested players can sign up for beta testing on the game's official Discord server, which is expected to launch in the next few days.
Does it really matter? A sack of shit is better than the Nazi he is running against.
GM is one of the worst companies in the world. I would expect nothing less from them.
Supreme Court has decided to perform oral sex on Donald Trump just because they feel it is important to the case. They are very diligent in their jobs.
That would actually be very cool to easily mix and match what you like.
This was the expensive Prototype/1st gen then comes the less expensive headset next year.
Why would it now be as good as any other PCVR headset when it has controllers?
A startup says it will sell 6DoF tracked VR controllers for Apple Vision Pro called Surreal Touch, and we spoke to the founder.
Apple Vision Pro's gaze-and-pinch interaction system can feel like telekinesis at times, and makes watching media and simple interactivity a breeze. But the lack of tracked controllers makes it unsuitable for many kinds of games and experiences playable on other headsets.
Surreal Touch is a self-tracking controller designed to solve this problem. It uses two fisheye tracking cameras and an onboard chipset to determine its position in space, similar to Meta's Touch Pro controllers but with one fewer camera, and has the same design and control elements as Touch controllers including two action buttons, a thumbstick, an index trigger, and a grip trigger. The startup is claiming less than 10mm positioning accuracy. It describes this as "unparalleled tracking", an odd claim given Meta and Valve targeted less than 1mm for their VR controllers.
This has always been a Republican dream. If people are not dying on the job are they really working hard enough?
Good old GOP looking back over 100 years on how to treat women.
Maybe we should just stop calling them conservatives and just call them what they are Nazis.
What happened is Elon musk went insane and destroyed his reputation and company.
Pico's new VR headset could launch soon. A well-known leaker claims to know the specifications of the Pico 4S.
Chipset: Qualcomm Snapdragon XR2 Gen 2 Display: Dual LCDs with 2,160 by 2,160 pixels per eye Frame rate: 90 Hz Lenses: Pancake lenses with motorized IPD adjustment Sensors: 4 x tracking cameras, 2 x RGB passthrough cameras, 2 x IR illuminators for depth detection of the room Controller: Ringless controllers New mixed reality features: Room scanning and floating panels that can be freely positioned in the room Details may still change, but according to Luna's sources, these features are likely final.
A recent South Korean certification of the device suggests that the headset could be released in the next months.
Meta announced that security patches for Quest 1 are officially coming to an end next month, marking the final phase-out of the now five-year-old headset.
Meta sent an email to Quest 1 owners on Friday stating the 2019-era Quest will no longer receive any security updates or bug fixes starting August 31st, 2024.
While users will still be able to download and play supported apps, the company notes that “if any security vulnerabilities are discovered in the future, private data that is directly stored on the device or accessible from it would be at risk of compromise.
Simple answer. The 6600 is better than the 3050 at almost everything.
Glad this piece of human waste is where he belongs.
The Supreme Court does what ever the hell they want so I guess the president should be able to do the same.
If you have the money, the Quest 3 is fantastic for it's price.

What a complete moron. Got to save some money for some kick backs.
Breachers skillfully brings the tactical gameplay of Rainbow Six Siege to VR. I tried out the 5v5 shooter for the Quest 3.
As a huge fan of tactical multiplayer shooters like Rainbow Six: Siege, Breachers immediately captivated me. That's why I checked out the 5v5 shooter for Meta Quest 3. In addition to the version for Meta Quest 3, Quest 2 and Quest Pro, Breachers is also available for PSVR 2 and of course for PC VR.
Breachers is heavily based on the Ubisoft original and brings its proven gameplay concept to VR. Two teams compete against each other in multiple rounds, alternating between the roles of attackers (Enforcers) and defenders (Revolters).
As the Enforcers, your goal is to infiltrate a building and defuse two bombs planted by the Revolters. The defenders must prevent this from happening at all costs. Both sides have access to a variety of weapons and special gadgets to gain an advantage.
I am sorry no. I don’t want this garbage taught in schools.
Apple is asking LG and Samsung about supplying micro-OLED displays for the cheaper Vision headset, a South Korean news outlet reports.
Apple is asking LG and Samsung about supplying micro-OLED displays for the cheaper Vision headset, a South Korean news outlet reports. The Elec claims Apple sent a request for information (RFI) to both companies inquiring about "technical information necessary for product development". The outlet further claims Apple specified a 2 to 2.1 inch display with a pixel density of 1700 pixels per inch (PPI). For comparison, the Sony-supplied micro-OLED displays in Apple Vision Pro are 1.42 inch with a pixel density around 3386 PPI, providing a resolution of 3660×3200.
I would vote for a walking corpse over a fascist like trump.

Meta's long-in-development 'Avalanche' VR cloud streaming system appeared on a French outlet's Quest 3, offering PC VR title Lone Echo, though it failed to connect.
Meta's long-in-development 'Avalanche' PC VR cloud streaming system appeared on a French outlet's Quest 3. The "Activate Avalanche (Alpha)" option appeared in the Experimental section of the settings of one of GamerGen's Quest 3 headsets, as demonstrated during a recent livestream.
The description of the setting translates to "Launch an Avalanche session using the cloud gaming endpoint". When activating it GamerGen was offered to play Lone Echo, a blockbuster Oculus Rift game from 2017 that hasn't been ported to Quest. However, actually attempting to launch it resulted in an error that translates to "Unable to launch the Avalanche session", with a description of "An error occurred while launching the Avalanche session, please check your network and try again."

Developed under license from Asmodee Entertainment and published by Saber Interactive, Exploding Kittens VR will be released this fall for Meta Quest 3, Meta Quest 2, and Quest Pro. The VR game is based on the card game of the same name.

The game is played in three different game modes: Classic Mode, Blitz Mode with up to five players, or Duel Mode against a single opponent. You can customize your avatars and there will also be a social lobby to explore and mini-games.
This Chinese company's latest headset is a blatant Apple Vision Pro clone but with a Quest Pro style rear battery, powered by Qualcomm's XR2+ Gen 2 chipset.
Play For Dream MR's design is clearly heavily "inspired" by Apple Vision Pro. But unlike the cheap Chinese knockoff we tried at CES in January, this new headset actually has the specs (though likely not the software) to rival apple.
The XR2+ Gen 2 chipset, Qualcomm's most powerful XR chip yet, is paired with 16GB of LPDDR5X RAM and either 512GB or 1TB of UFS 3.1 storage, depending on the model you buy. The headset features dual 3840×3552 micro-OLED displays from BOE, higher resolution than Vision Pro's Sony panels, with a refresh rate of 90Hz and 92% DCI-P3 color gamut, the same as Vision Pro. Its pancake lenses offer a claimed field of view of 103°, and the headset has eye tracking for automatic IPD adjustment and foveated rendering.
RIVEN (1997), the sequel to iconic point-and-click puzzle-adventure MYST (1993), just got the VR treatment in its new remake. Unlike Myst, which felt a little too game-y and obtuse at times, Riven plays a lot more like a modern title, which thanks to Quest and SteamVR support, is true in every sense of the word now. Granted, you’ll need to look past some VR implementation issues which keep it from feeling like a ground-up VR native, although however you play, you’ll be exploring a fascinating world that’s both puzzle-dense and undeniably beautiful at every turn.
According to new rumors, Sony is cutting back on VR game development. However, two first-party PSVR 2 titles are still said to be in the works.
The rumors come from Nicolas Sutrich of Android Central:
"Sources close to Android Central have revealed that Sony is making deep cuts to funding for VR games. While I'll paraphrase for anonymity, my source was told that there will be very few opportunities for VR game development at Sony going forward," Sutrich writes.
"To back that up, another source informed me that only two PSVR 2 games are in development at Sony."
Somnium VR1, a tethered PC VR headset claiming the widest undistorted field of view to date, is set to finally launch in July. UploadVR will go hands-on at the launch event.
Somnium is a Czech startup previously solely focused on its social VR platform Somnium Space. But in late 2021 it announced the Somnium VR1 headset with a monster spec sheet for the time, in partnership with VRgineers - known for its ultra-high end XTAL headsets for enterprise. Originally Somnium VR1 was pitched as a hybrid headset with standalone capabilities via an onboard Snapdragon XR2 chipset, but that idea was ditched in 2022 to focus on making it a solely PC VR headset instead.
Mannequin, the asymmetrical VR multiplayer game inspired by Prop Hunt, launches today on Steam.
Supporting five players in online 2v3 matches, Mannequin sees two Agents hunting down shape-shifting aliens. As the aliens, you can freeze to blend in with your surroundings by striking a pose. Following last month's launch on App Lab, it's now arriving on Steam, and the Quest version also received a new patch enabling cross-platform multiplayer and new UI changes.
XR enthusiast and serial data miner Luna uncovered existence of the tool, which is said to allow users the ability to update Quest’s operating system over USB via the “Sideload Update” option in the recovery menu.
