If you haven’t heard of Microsoft’s HoloLens, it might be time to learn up. HoloLens is a next-gen augmented reality headset, with the potential to surpass already impressive virtual reality technology such as the Oculus Rift.
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?
Here's a forgotten VR gem for you from 2019. Epic Games' action-packed Robo Recall, which is also available for Quest 2.
Although I never owned an oculus, I played the demo for this at an electronics store. Pretty impressive in an early goings of VR title.
It definitely holds more promise than VR outside of the gaming space, I don't many would disagree. With regards to gaming, I would think most would tend to lean towards VR but that's just me. I do agree though, IF HaloLens works, it will truly be ahead if its time, which I don't see as a bad thing necessarily as long as its focus isn't gaming.
Why do people keep saying it's not for games? It's for anything you want it to be for. Education, TV, some jobs may use it.
Definitely excited for HoloLens.
Hopefully, the price is reasonable.
Like how Kinect, voice commands, the other AR headsets, 3D have not revolutionised squat (even outside of gaming) the same will be said for hololens. I remmeber seeing similar articles being said about the kinect and how schools, businesses....... will use it but it never happened. The reasons is because it was a complex, device heavy solutions to things that didn't need "solving". For Hololens there are adequate ways of doing AR that use current, easily available devices (phones). You don't need a complex headset to show a plumber a problem and for him to help you. Pointing a smart phone at it does the same thing (also that driving point, made by Tsunoda, is just damn dangerous and was why Google Glass was going to be banned while driving)
As a gaming device it would never work. We have said for years how X game looks realistic and that is because you solely concentrate on one thing. But put it against a real backdrop and the short falls of graphics become much more apparent.
Hololens looks cool but we have heard the same thing time and time again. In reality it does not have much of a leg to stand on (especially when business what stupidly simple and cheap ways/products for their workforce)
