Ever found yourself an unfortunate victim to motion sickness while gaming? Take the opportunity to learn about the science behind its causes.
The Creature Collector Fest event has come to steam until May 19. Here are some epic discounted games to scratch the critter gathering itch.
Tubbz has revealed that an new licensed figure casting the DOOM Slayer as a duck has been released.
Skewed and Reviewed have posted a brief interview and some gameplay from PAX East for Toxic Crusaders.
They have a hand in it. Supposedly ultra violent and it sat without distribution for ages. That changed and it is due for release later. Peter Dinklage is Toxie.
I had never experienced this issue until the Hot Wheels Pack for Forza Horizon 3. Whilst I did not have any symptoms whilst playing on console, the PC version certainly gave me some vertigo and slight discomfort. It was marvellous!
There have been very few games which have made me feel nauseous, but I had some friends who used to have a hard time playing FPS games with me because of the constant 360 motion.
Oh, and Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. Ohhhhhh boy.
Motion sickness is why things like motion blur, camera bob, screen shake, and field of view should *always* be options in first person games.
Worst I personally get is hot and a headache, and only in fairly extreme situations, but it does happen. Probably wouldn't last a minute in VR though.
I know I have a few friends who can't play many or even watch many of the games they would like to because of motion sickness. My mom falls into that boat, too, in the rare occasions she sits and games with me.
I can honestly say I never experienced it myself until I played Far Cry 3 for the first time. The radio towers were absolutely horrendous for me, and the same effect happened in 4.
