This could be good news for psvr

Whilst at first I would question whether Microsoft would support a feature, VR, that its own console doesn’t have, I do think this is possible! VR would be a perfect way to expand the experience of the Minecraft game and PSVR has the largest VR install base. It would also provide Microsoft with valuable data and experience for if and when it releases a VR solution for its own Xbox platform. I hope this is true!

@shaggy2303 Yes, I’ve seen clips it looks great but sadly I don’t have a powerful PC VR gaming setup, one day! I do have PSVR so Minecraft has the potential to reach a, relatively, large VR audience.

I’m only an occasional player of Minecraft but I have put time into building a. glass and wood home on top of a cliff that overlooks a prairie and I just love looking across when the sun sets after the rains - in VR this could be magic.

Microsoft may not be able to interfere with this. It can be part of the contract. Remember that Minecraft was not created by Microsoft.

Nobody is asking for VR on Xbox - Phil Spencer. But thank you, Phil, for PSVR support on PS4

No. This was meant for Halolens, this is corporate espionage.

Discovery for PSVR was the closest thing. Its not bad but its not great.

Abnor_Mal1417d ago

I was just talking about Discovery a few days ago, bought it but for a few dollars and never tried it.

Although I like to support PSVR as much as possible, this will be a pass for me as I don't find Minecraft enjoyable. I do enjoy seeing what people are able to create in the game, but resource gathering and management games are not fun to me.

Some gamers begging for it on reddit will be happy.

The more VR and cross play the merrier.

I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.

Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.

Name Last Name46d ago

I mean some sequels are objectively better and you don’t need to play the whole series.

Inverno46d ago

But most of these games have a story to follow, sure you can catch up with a YouTube vid but where's the fun in that?

LucasRuinedChildhood46d ago (Edited 46d ago )

A list like this isn't telling you not to play the previous games if you want to. It's just giving you legendary games to play.

But tbh, you don't always have to force yourself to play every entry in a franchise to get to the better ones.

- The vast majority of Witcher 3 players never played the first 2 and had a great time. The first 2 games aren't in the same league.
- The GTA games are self-contained with the odd fun reference. You can easily jump into any of them.
- The Shadow Of The Colossus remake looks and controls better than the original (plus it has a 60fps option while the remaster is just 30fps). New players will enjoy it more.
- Portal 2 is a lot better than Portal 1 and takes the concept much further gameplay-wise. Storywise, Portal 1 is fairly light too. Not that you shouldn't play it but realistically ... you'd love Portal 2 whether you play it or not (at lot of Portal 2 players have never played 1).

Bioshock 1 is the only one I agree with you on simply because it's one the best games of all time and arguably better than Infinite. No other setting like Rapture.

Looking at the list, I'd recommend playing Uncharted 1 before 2 but no doubt, 2 is the legendary one you have to play.

Inverno46d ago

I get it, but that's just my opinion on his opinion. I just think that before you play a sequel you should still play what came before it. Maybe it's just me but i find it fascinating playing through the first game in a series and seeing how it has evolved through its sequels. Like I said I don't disagree with the list, other than SoTC which I strongly believe the remaster of the original should be played above the remake.

AuraAbjure46d ago

Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.

Minecraft Bedrock Introduces Official Add-Ons To Marketplace

Minecraft Bedrock is introducing add-ons to the marketplace. The add-ons can now be added to many existing and new worlds.

Jin_Sakai66d ago (Edited 66d ago )

Nice! Next up, shaders on consoles.

“A new update is improving how mods work for Minecraft Bedrock. Mojang has introduced add-ons to the marketplace.”

“These add-ons can now easily be added to new and existing worlds instead of being tied to a single world.
There are plenty of free and paid add-ons that will let you customize just about anything in your world.”

OtterX65d ago

So RayTracing is no longer locked to the NVIDIA maps? I know there was a workaround, but it will be nice to have easier access to all worlds.
