For years, VR devices caused motion sickness – known as the “barfogenic zone”. Have engineers finally solved it, asks Colin Barras, or just replaced it with a different kind of queasiness?
Oculus has made great strides in reducing – perhaps even eliminating – the motion-sickness problem.
Zombie Army VR is creeping onto VR headsets later this month, and here's everything you need to know about Rebellion's latest.
Morels: Homestead, a relaxing game in which you can create your own unique homestead, is available now for PC VR.
Electronic Arts has confirmed that while F1 23 will support PC VR it will not support PSVR 2 on PlayStation 5.
That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.
Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.
But it's EA. They don't think.
A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?
That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.
Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.
I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.
Outside of content, eliminating motion sickness for a VR set will go a long way for mainstream acceptance. This "uncanny valley" effect is interesting. I can't imagine too many gamers complaining about not having photo realism and straight human movement capture as a deterrent from making VR enjoyable. Good article though.
It wasn't the motion sickness that got me, it was the induced headache within a couple minutes of wearing a VR headset. Granted, this was at SIGGRAPH 96, so they may have eliminated that issue by now.
The uncanny valley. That sounds like a potential title of a future sci-fi horror movie about the subject.
