Fallout 4 VR Treadmill, Oculus and ROVR demo - EGX 2016
16Video review of the ROVR platform itself at- https://youtu.be/9wlsueuo3OY
(apologies for the Crocs..)
At EGX 2016 in the Birmingham NEC, we got a hands on with the ROVR platform, with the opportunity to play both Pac man or Fallout 4 in VR. This is how it went with FO4.
First things first- This is not as much a game, but a walking simulator. I am completely fine with this, as it's fairly early days, and the Rovr platform has applications outside of gaming (training, marketing, virtual tours). There is definite refinement needed though. The walking on the disk just represents a forward 'W' press on a keyboard, and faster walking is a 'shift' key push (to run). The shift between the two could be smoothed somehow (so more as an emulation of an analog stick).
What we do get is opportunities; Everything has to start somewhere, and I look forward to where we end up.
The ROVR is compatible with Oculus rift, HTC Vive, Samsung Galaxy Gear VR and Google Cardboard.
