Game|Life Podcast: Our Favorite VR Games So Far, From Puzzles to Tower Defense
Virtual reality is finally a reality, in the sense that consumers finally own the Oculus Rift and HTC Vive. (Or, you know, you’re on a giant waiting list with no end in sight.) On this episode of the Game|Life podcast, Time’s Matt Peckham joins in and we run down our favorite VR experiences so far, and talk about what makes a good VR game versus a bad VR game.
Going off on a bit of a tangent, we talk about the idea that Microsoft and Sony might be introducing slightly-better game consoles soon, getting players into an incremental upgrade cycle.
Later, we pick up on a few news stories that have hit this week: Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture is going to be available on Steam soon, and the publisher is PlayStation. (More like Everybody’s Gone Third Party!) Finally, rumors from a reliable source suggest that The Legend of Zelda for Wii U will feature voice acting… and an option to play as a female character.
