Cheers Guys!

Using an intro, let me know your thoughts in the comments. Right now ive heard two extreme judgements on it...one that they really like it (Exidy) and one they can't stand it lol (Wife).

News today starts with link to BFG VR Mod which was updated to include Teleportation as a mechanic. After that Oculus Story Studio and their current project "Talking with Ghosts".

Next up, Unity and Unreal Market Share and which earns more?

Also an update on LG's Vive compatible headset showing the Flip Up feature of the HMD.

After this, a state sponsored town in China dedicated to Virtual Reality hardware and Software companies.

Lastly, Father John of the Mist and his Oculus Rift Taylor Swift mashup...huh? Last story talks about AMD cards of the WX series which should have VR benchmarks over the next week.
