I started using SuperNatural three and a half years ago three or four times a week but now with a new heat set I am exploring mixed reality in familiar spaces. The advances in VR I believe really benefit the older community. I participate to increase my social contacts, stay flexible and have a broad sense of community that allows me to enjoy a richer life.

There is also a method that you CAN access the meetings without the Quest headset but the experience is MUCH better using the headset

Comment on The Best of VR Gaming 2023 by Tiffany Tolman https://xrupdate.com/the-best-of-vr-gaming-2023/#comment-106 Wed, 03 Jan 2024 18:02:15 +0000 https://xrupdate.com/?p=2848#comment-106 Great to see an article by someone extremely active in the VR media space. A true VR enthusiast and player, Wes brings his years of VR playing and fandom of the platform to this article. I know this was not a solo effort, but I know Wes turned to those he respects in the VR space to help round out his opinions. While I may not agree with who all the winners selected, I will agree that those selected were worthy as well.

Guess it’s time to remove that and wait for the Steam release! Hopefully we can get even more graphics upgrades.

Comment on Sniper Elite Returns to VR as a Meta Quest Exclusive Later This Month by Virtual Reality https://xrupdate.com/sniper-elite-returns-to-vr-as-a-meta-quest-exclusive-later-this-month/#comment-28 Thu, 02 Nov 2023 14:09:52 +0000 https://xrupdate.com/?p=2594#comment-28 ‘collaboration with Meta which eventually evolved into the exclusive creation of Winter Warrior.’

likely then that meta approached rebellion, and a probable sack of money was involved. Screen grab doesn’t look like anything beyond what the quest 2 can handle, so you’re probably correct in assuming the short and shallow. I don’t get why (if meta are contributing funds to these projects) that when using established IP and good developers, they aren’t building titles for the quest 3. Indies won’t for obvious reasons, but meta funded titles, come on…

We like to play things like Myst or Moss or Red Matter. I notice that the VAST MAJORITY of games, sadly, CST games. Can you make a “best non CST games” list?
