40Cheers Guys!
Preamble covers News schedule for this week as I will be in Vegas tomorrow through Thursday returning that afternoon. Will try to do two VR related things when there, a VR coaster ride and of course the PSVR sale at 9pm at Best Buy Vegas!!!
News wise I covered all the winners from the recent VR Proto Awards in LA last night. After this I mentioned the plans to have VR Experiences accompany the Blade Runner sequel due out Oct 2017 next year.
After this I talked about Oculus collaboration with Disney and the research from Juniper Research that predicts VR Hardware will be massive by 2021...But how massive!?
