The Valve boss said 'it's ugly in the short term,' but in the long run competition is good for everyone.
Meta revealed that an Xbox VR headset was on the way back in 2024, so where is it? And what form can we expect it to take?
Yea, the problem is that the games worth playing in VR in Microsoft's catalog do not run on Meta OS. Hands down one of the best VR experiences I've had was MS Flight Simulator, and you need a beast of a system to run it well! The one thing that could push Meta headsets is an "official" release of Minecraft VR. You had to do some workarounds before to get it running in VR (which is an amazing experience, I don't actually play the game flat), but they just removed all VR support for the game after an update at the end of March. Bring it back with an official, easy to use Meta Quest version. I wouldn't buy an XBox branded Quest, but I'd at least like to see them do a bigger push into VR. Doubt they'd do it bc it's still so niche, and they're struggling atm and trimming the fat as it is. (But omg, would I kill for an official Forza Horizon in VR w wheel support!!)
I'm not sure that a Metaquest with an Xbox logo slapped on it constitutes it being an "Xbox" headset. But whatever.
It’s time to see which PS5, PS4, PS VR2, and free-to-play games topped the PlayStation Store download charts last month.
April saw a lot of action among the top spots. The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered and Forza Horizon 5 broke into the top three for the U.S. and EU PS5 charts, while Wanderer: The Fragments of Fate dominated the PS VR2 charts across the board.
Xbox reigns supreme at Playstation!
I wonder what was the reaction from Sony´s first party investors to those numbers and what they plan to do next.
I know expedition 33 is up there but it honestly deserves to be #1 on all platform. Game is fantastic
The top 3 games are Microsoft published titles. Looks like they had a good month. I don't follow Minecraft but how can that game be selling so well for over a decade?
I need to check out Wanderer for PSVR2. how come there's almost no marketing for this game?
The makers of a video game that even impressed the French president tell the unusual tale of its development.
Gabe is slowly morphing into Santa Claus. Photoshop in a red hat and suit.....voila!
Competition is good but I just can't support Epic. Spending all that money on exclusives while neglecting and/or pushing back their own updates to bring their client up to par with Steam. Then going around acting all holier than thou attitude about their developer cut percentage.
I've stopped caring. I have said many times now that having GOG Galaxy 2.0 has pretty much solved all of my problems with having multiple launchers. Yes, it's still annoying having multiple accounts with multiple passwords, but it's a very small annoyance at this point.
I still haven't bought anything from Epic's store, mainly because there just isn't any incentive to buy anything from the store, but I honestly no longer care about timed exclusives.
I've just synced all of my games to GOG now and run them all from there.
Flippin heck he needs to lay off the burgers 🍔
EGS - Get some free quality games on there and never spend money.
Steam - It is still worth spending money on there because people can find good deals in the store, and the valve continues to upgrade it.
