Tim Sweeney is the head of Epic Games, the company behind a plethora of major game franchises for PC and Console (and even mobile if you include Infinity Blade), as well as the engine that makes numerous major games as well, the Unreal Engine, has come out to say that virtual reality is going to change the world. This time virtual reality may actually accomplish just that.
Samsung’s virtual reality headset, the Gear VR, is now available for purchase over at Best Buy although right now it is through their website only. However it could end up being on store shelves as well depending on how sales go. It’s interesting to see this suddenly appearing at Best Buy for sale though since the Gear VR is still considered to be in the early stages of development.
One press event people enjoy watching a lot is the Samsung CES ones and this year is no exception we are guessing. It should be interesting to see what Samsung announces because word on the street is that we won’t be seeing a Samsung Galaxy 6 announcement or anything like that.
Today the Samsung Gead VR headset has gotten three additional games and applications added for it on the Oculus Rift store. To be more specific, there is one new game and two new applications, both of which are something you’ll want to download for your headset.
One thing we can definitely say is that the Samsung Gear VR headset is certainly getting a decent amount of support from game developers. There is already a decent selection of games available and more are being added all the time. Today Climax Studio has announced that they will be releasing their first Samsung Gear VR game soon called Bandit Six.
Yesterday we announced that Samsung’s virtual reality headset, the Gear VR, is now available for purchase. With the release of this new virtual reality device, which most people will want for the gaming aspects of it, comes a list of games that are available for its launch.
The Samsung Gear VR Innovator Edition is now available for purchase on the Samsung website for $199.99. This headset works with the Galaxy Note 4 and is powered by Oculus.
Following the recent release of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 Nook 7.0 is the Samsung Galaxy Tab Nook 10.1. Featuring a 10.1″ 1280×800 display, the latest Nook is another Samsung/Barnes and Noble Hybrid and retails currently for $299 with an instant $50 rebate.
The Samsung Gear VR headset seems to be really picking up steam these days and one of the more anticipated games for it is called Darknet by indie developer E McNeill. His game recently won the Best Gameplay at the Proto Awards and it is turning out to be one of the bigger titles to launch for the Samsung Gear VR headset.
Emulating another operating system on a platform not native to said operating system isn’t a new thing. There are plenty of emulators out there that can emulate just about anything you want, even on a platform like Samsung Gear Live. So while putting Window95 onto your Gear Live might seem a bit odd of an idea at first, until the cool factor sets in. Of course playing DOOM on it definitely adds to that.
