Look at all those AAA titles! Like... err.... uhm...

[erretter]

Well... I... well I guess there is one or two amongst all this dirty shameful shovelware calling themselfes "VR games".

In all seriousnes.
Take a look at the VR games, then take a look at your PC system.
You got yourself a 2.5k Setup to play shameful shovelware?!

[GT500]

You do know you can use that 2.5 K setup to plan non VR games, right?

Troll thread is trolling.

[Spyderborg]

Can't tell if stupid or trolling. Probably both.

Allow me to let you in on a little secret OP. There are hardly any Vive games right now, because almost nobody currently has had a Vive long enough to develop on! Shocking, right? Don't tell anyone else about this incredibly complex and hard-to-understand information - it may have a drastic effect on the weak-minded. I hope you'll be ok.

So HTC is stupid for not giving out dev kits?!

Stupid stupid HTC, that´s what you get for beeing inexperienced and little company.

Dude seriously. Of course HTC handed out dev kits to everybody who WANTED them.
And look who wanted them. NO AAA publisher.

EDIT: Calling me troll just because I disagree with your opinion is pretty 12yearoldish...

[Magic Mike Mazz]

a legend of luca looks quite promising. who knows, a decade or less from now every1 might have fiber optic internet that would make multiplayer vr gaming possible, which is when i think the vr platform will really take off.

i bought kinect when it was new 5 years ago, and i still play the l8st dance central game on my xbone just about everyday. without the kinect, my enthusiasm 4 gaming industry wanes. i hope my vive also bolsters my enthusiasm 4 gaming when it arrives.

motion tracking in gaming could b the best its ever been with vive, tho it dont really track ur whole body like the kinect.

[maldoror]

You mean to tell me a new platform is launching with a sub standard assortment of games? ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, I gotta sit down this has like never happened, ever in the history of gaming. Now if you will excuse me I am going to go play sewer shark on my sega cd.

LOL, they certainly did not give out dev kits to everyone who wanted one, because everyone wanted one. They only gave out a select few. Even then, they might not even want to develop on the dev kit, instead waiting for the final consumer version - because the consumer version is what everyone is going to be playing their games on.

There are a few AAA titles right now for it. I'd say that's actually pretty good considering the Vive literally just came out. Other AAA devs are going to wait and make sure VR takes off before investing millions into developing a game. Just be patient.

[Mustard Jelly]

Looks like someone is a little butthurt he cant afford this cool piece of hardware.

[NeptNutz]

Seriously though, this is the list you are looking for.

That's a pretty damn good list!

So... Sony asked, EA asked, Konami asked, Activision asked...

And HTC was like: "NO! NO!!! We only give the dev kits to 20 year old hoppy programmers!

Makes perfect sense.

The thing about this statement is that it does feel like the 90's (or even 80's) all over again. But not for the reasons you might be thinking.

This is the most revolutionary piece of gaming technology to come out in the last 20 years. So we get to experience the growth of the VR medium and witness the creativity of developers as they figure out how to develop for it. We get to potentially see the birth of new gaming genres.

It's awesome.

I never said they asked? Like I said AAA devs are going to wait until they are sure they can profit.

Indie devs are the ones who are going to pave the way for the AAA games. Once the large companies take notice of the level of success the indie devs are having, they'll jump on board.

[Redronn]

This isn't like when a new console comes out and some AAA devs push out a game on release day.

Don't know why some people we're expecting that. It's too new tech, not going to happen.
