The creator of Audiosurf turns his rhythm action classic into one of the coolest games in the Vive virtual reality line-up.
In games that track scores based on a player’s performance it’s almost always enough to lure a player into a competitive mindset where they want to do the best they can to achieve a great record. In Audioshield, the emotion and enjoyment the player can feel from playing one of their favorite songs is enough …
This past weekend, Melbourne welcomed the first ever tech-specific exhibition open to the public in Australia (it takes a long time for anything to get down here, alright!). Hosted inside the Melbourne Exhibition Centre, the Technology & Gadget Expo 2016 is a unique take on a typical convention in that you are able to purchase pretty much anything that's on the show floor on the day. In typical Melbourne style, the weather outside was cold, wet with rare glimpses of sunshine. But inside the exhibition hall, Power Up Gaming could not be more at home. There were solar-powered cars, 'meat wellness' scanners, compact wearable surround sound systems and, one of our favourites, virtual reality demos. The first VR experience for the day was a mini-game called Slingshot, part of a compilation of small games from The Lab, courtesy of Valve.
Audioshield for the HTC Vive is reviewed and rated by Mark from Gamersledge. Does this VR rhythm game have what it takes to warrant the $20 price tag?
