VR Gaming

Never used it but it's getting pretty wild. It's not just for gaming either. I was watching something a while back and this real estate developer in New York was using the technology to walk clients through their apartments and showing them what the view from their floor would be. Only makes sense when you're going to spend 10+ million bucks for a place that won't be ready for a couple of years.

Pretty sure some militaries also use it for training.

I still haven't purchased it for gaming but I thought about it. I might once there's more games out for it.

I saw something that was pretty cool. This guy was playing a shooter but he was standing on some sort of treadmill platform that allowed him to switch direction (full 360) walk/run just like he was the guy in the game. Not sure how much that rig costs or if it's even available to the public yet but it was pretty amazing. Takes up a lot of space in a room but I could see them in arcades/movie theaters that sort of thing.

Amazing how much it plays with your brain to make you think you're right there experiencing whatever it is that is going on.

Even the porn industry is capitalizing on it. They're now making movies for the VR users that want to experience what it's like fucking "insert porn actress name". Look it up lol.

I don't doubt it about the port at all lol

Soon military will be powering robot army's with guys sitting in rooms with a vr set on

I had my high school reunion this summer, and a former class mate is a video game developer working on VR stuff now. Doing some work on Star Wars now. He was talking about wearing these sleeves on his arms and legs that captures movement with arms and you have to march in order to walk around. Pretty crazy stuff. Almost too much really.

One guy was talking about how realistic it has/Will become ,he gave some examples of watching a concert from your couch but use the living area as the background ,so essentially the band or commedian etc. would be set up in your living room playing .

have played a couple shooting games on VR and it's pretty cool, but i noticed a lot of issues with the hardware running it. once they refine the system it is going to change media entertainment in my opinion. i too would like to buy a VR system, but holy shit they're expensive and i'll wait until some decent games are available.

It could bring some life back into the porno industry , a friend told me he saw some VR porno on youporn already.
