I like seeing that Valve finally released a new HL game but I'm disappointed that it is VR-only. I understand that it was developed to be a VR game and wouldn't work without it, but I think the vast majority of gamers still don't have VR sets. I wish they would have at least made a non-VR version alongside it.
Still waiting on a proper HL sequel as well...
Oh well, maybe one day I'll get the hardware required to play this...

Wow, that is pretty cool! If they can get the same effect into thinner monitor, that would be great.

I wonder if these will be our gaming monitors in 10 years.

I could see these becoming gaming monitors and TV screens. It will probably take 10 years for the cost of these to go down enough for the average Joe to consider buying one over a "normal" monitor/TV. The hardware alone just to run one is expensive.


Is it just me or does the company name make you think about Thief and System Shock?

I'm looking forward to season 2 of WW as well especially after hearing about there being other "Worlds" in the original movies.

I'll likely skip these fluffy nuggets and get Far Harbor.

Might as well get them all. The season pass costs only $5 more than Far Harbor will cost alone.

Everyone is doing the VR thing now. Having one that is compatible with consoles and the PC for a reasonable price is what I'll be looking for.

At the ~$300 price point, I was set to buy. Heck, even at $400, maybe. At $800, nah. I think if they'd released at the $250-$350 price point that they'd talked about for years, all of these would have been a smash hit. Hopefully there's enough sucke...I mean early adopters so the projects can get their feet under them and sway more developers so the price comes down to something the other 90% of gamers will pay.
I agree.. It is too expensive at the current price. I wonder how this compares to Samsung's Oculus VR.

Huh, I didn't know DF was doing a crowdfund for a Psychonauts sequel. I wonder why Tim decided to go with that crowdfunding service instead of Kickstarted as he used for Broken Age? I've never even heard of Fig. I'm surprised he has over $3mil already even though I found the original Psychonauts game entertaining.

I like the art style but it looks like there isn't much variation in the types of puzzles.

Yeah, I think they will have some games that come and go on sale. Looks like just the 'flash' sales are gone.

This looks like a mix between Ground Control and Homeworld which were two of my favorite RTS games so I'm definitely looking forward to this! I already have the Homeworld Remastered Collection so I get 20% off of the pre-order for this.

I hope they have more similar games in the works or at least in the planning stages.

Yeah, sometimes sellers will increase the base price before applying the discount so it sounds like a big sale. It sucks but many people fall for it because it can sound like a good sale when really it's not.

Edit: Seems others have noticed this too in this Blue's News article

I asked for a Steam refund already.

Sound issues right off the bat, could hear the female speaking, but males lips just moved with no sound. Half the controls would not work, check forums, countless complaints about the interface, gave up. No in-game option for changing FoV or turning off mouse acceleration? I don't care if you can turn it off by editing files *you actually have to edit 3 files each*, this is clearly a console port with not even one ounce of PC-centric effort.

Epic failure. Incredibly disappointing, have been playing Bethesda games since Arena: The Elder Scrolls.
This is one good reason why I like to wait for a few patches to be released before I start playing a new game.

I'll be eligible for a Surface Pro 4 or Surface Book. Can't wait. Beats the 6lbs POS HP from 2013 they gave me when I joined. Lugging it home sucks. Lugging a Surface home will be ridiculously easy. Or even unnecessary, as they'll finally let me virtual machine in with my desktop. Then I just need the Surface for travel.

Lucky you! My company wouldn't spend that much on a laptop for me. I recently got a Surface Pro 3 for myself and really like it. I did get the new keyboard cover and pen however.

Of course it doesn't replace my gaming rig but that's not what I bought it for.
