The Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco March 14-16 will serve up the worldwide premiere of the latest Paranormal Activity horror. But after six films earning over $889 million at the global box office since 2009, the next chapter in the found footage horror genre is available exclusively in virtual reality.
Set in the 17th century, Bootstrap Island is a roguelike virtual reality game currently in development by VR game developer Maru VR.
Paramount Pictures’ upcoming “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem” and Xbox is serving up a totally righteous gamers’ welcome for the fearless foursome. In celebration of the movie’s August 2023 release, we are giving away a limited number of exclusive ooze green, pizza-scented Xbox Wireless Controllers that pair perfectly with game content that immerses fans in the Turtles’ latest adventures.
That sounds disgusting. It reminds of the when my friends and I had gaming nights as a kid. There was always the one kid with sweaty hands and a greasy, nasty controller, lol.
I fear Phil Spencer-scented controllers may be coming next.
... God help us all.
I think the community would adore that idea and it would sell phenomenally.
I'm talking trash (obviously), but I would be lying if I said I don't think there's a bizarre executive worship that goes on in Xbox circles. I really don't get it.
I see why they buying publishers. They can't make games cause their tied up on the controller part
Yeah, a company with that many employees and that much money has a singular focus on controllers. Oh boy.
You say that like it's sarcasm but it's what's actually been happening for a over decade. Dozens of limited edition controller releases and exceptionally low game output along with disappointing game quality when the games do come.
Look up xbox controllers and you'll see , sit down. It was half sarcasm anyway so just relax and squeeze
And the purpose of me looking up xbox controllers would be what? Because releasing multiple controllers doesn't mean their whole division is tied in that. You say half sarcasm...it either it is or it isn't. But look at your agrees, and even the comment that was made. Clearly there is a group that believes it to be true. Sooo, perhaps you should just relax and squeeze, because if you can be sarcastic, why can't I?
This could be a scary experience.
This, Allison Road and this one other horror game I am definitely looking forward too!

I can't help but think people don't understand just how much of PT's brilliance was down to the artistry of the two brilliant directors behind it and not due to some kind of simple repeatable formula.
These types of games are what will make VR shine IMO. I love that horror is making a comeback.
