And it wasn't "AAA" by any stretch of the imagination. Neither is Minecraft for that matter, and that's one of the few comparable successes recently.Wii Sports was a such a masterstroke of a killer app that it really does need to be studied and dissected for future generations to understand.
Yes. Otherwise you are probably not an early adopter and likely better served by not getting a VR headset this year. You can get one next year or in 2018 when there is a far larger selection of less experimental games.What is VR going to sell me on? Why should I upgrade my PC, and spend $600+ on a headset? An app store of experimental VR games?
That said, room scale experimental VR games are pretty damn amazing by all accounts.
If Valve were completely commited to going for the full breadth and depth of VR experiences they would need to alter the Steam rules a bit though. *cough*Makes sense to me. There's not going to be one killer app but rather a full breadth and depth of easily accessible VR content (games, experiences and apps).
