They could re-create HL1 in VR and it'd be a huge success, who wouldn't want to swing at head crabs in first person?

Game looks sick but I'm not buying VR for one game. More excited that they're finally releasing Source 2 tools.. but we'll see if they're limited to only this game or not.

Nice
It looks like ALOT of what is now "basic VR" as you say- but put together and...well... I suppose we will have to wait and see... it does all those things well.
You can tell from the trailer they are trying to show you "This VR gimmick" and "That VR gimmick" with the types of puzzles, and the movement, and the shooting and the stalking bla bla etc etc.
But here IS the thing - putting it all together to it seems natural and once your past the tutorial part (such as cup on the desk on the circle indicator etc.)
If it does all the things and puts them all together well - it will be one of the best VR games and would be a "monument" in the steps of VR moving forward to "Star Trek Holodecks" etc. because as it is now, usualy a game will do one of two of those things decent, or one of them really well etc.

Its bundled/free with Valves VR.
store.steampowered.com
I was going to make a post about how they should bundle it, and Microsoft Flightsim 2020, with their VR device, at a large price drop. A VR Orange box as it will. Two killer VR games, along with a reasonably priced VR system. Boom. get a major install base. But, as you see.. its already bundled at a fuck you pricing.

I used the Rift S and had no complaints, I saw it get some poor reviews but I didn't understand why. From my perspective it was a very solid, easy to use and intuitive system. Maybe the Vive is better but I can't imagine it being 700 dollars better.
