That looks absolutely nuts. I can only imagine what the behemoth would look like in VR. I wish they would re-do Farpoint for the PC or even PSVR2. Fighting alien spiders the size of a building is one of those things you don't forget when in VR. I wish there was more focus on humongous opponents in titles. That feeling of being "Jack" against a giant is awe-inspiring. Even with the original PSVR's klunky controls, it showed just how visceral VR could make an experience.

Pancake game = "Meh. Giant spider..."
VR = "Holy s^&*! how big are these f@%&#%$ spiders going to get?!? And I'm supposed to kill that thing?"

:)

*edit* Just noticed that Behemoth is also available for PSVR2 on the PS5, but I think the PC version might look better. It says it supports all the fancy feedback stuff as well.

Uhm. Wow.

Behemoth is pretty sweet, I think the controls are very similar to Walking Dead which I like. They actually seem a little more refined. Walking dead is the only free locomotion game I was able to get used to without feeling like ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- because the game revolves around moving slowly, you can dash but it takes your stamina. You can throw knives and there is a lock on feature which I don't really like because it feels cheap, I wish they could copy the way you throw weapons like in Dungeons of Eternity. The sword fighting feels pretty good, the way you can block and attack. If you hit the A button you flip your knife or sword around in your hand which is the same feature they had in Walking Dead. They also added this dash that kind of acts like a jump which they did not have in Walking Dead. In Walking Dead you could either climb up it or no.

I am having a problem if I use the link cable the graphics are degraded, all the objects have wavy lines. If I use Virtual Desktop the graphics become clean but then I end up dropping frames when I am looking around. I am not sure what to do. I noticed the same issues with Walking Dead when I first got the Quest 3.

Anyway, I couldn't get the Meta Quest 3S with the $100 gift card thing to go through so I'm out. Maybe next year. Black Friday week/month was kinda soft this year, to be honest. That's usually when I buy a stack of $10 video games, never open them, and eventually mail them to Malenko. Only thing I grabbed was Elden Ring and some rat in the first cave keeps raping me so that was probably a bad purchase.

:cheers:

just bought the 3S yesterday for my kid for christmas. we will see how it goes. bought it at costco with the executive membership, so at least i get 2% back at the end of the year or whatever.

plus... he's gonna need a new videocard for his computer, so it gave me an excuse to buy a 3050 as an early christmas present to myself and i can hand-me-down my 1650 into his rig... which is more than good enough for what he's playing.

Any particularly cool stuff I should do with a Vision Pro? I’m not the primary user but it’s under my roof.
