Was enjoying Bridge Crew but the tracking is off. I'm up too high in the game or too far back, or my hands don't reach low enough for some of the buttons. If only they could do the positioning with the d-pad like in Driveclub. It should be in every game.

Tiny Trax today. Tempted to go for it as my nephew likes casual racers and is also a fan of the "diorama" style 2D games in The Playroom et al. :) 

 

Its really nice. Had a quick go at lunchtime. Lovely controls and really sharp graphics. I'm crap at it though, 4th every race so far...

Yeah me too, Hardbattle. Great in multiplayer with friends though. The mechanics are tough to get used to (I've still not fully nailed the cornering mechanic) but when you do, it's really satisfying.

 

I've also got Archangel and Smashbox Arena waiting for me at home.

 

As well as Tiny Trax and Smashbox, Infinite Minigolf and Theseus are also both out today. Not bad.

Am interested in Infinite Minigolf for sure. Please let me know what it's like!

 

From what I've played of Tiny Trax, it's pretty bare bones. The germ of an amazing multiplayer game is there, but due to time or budget or whatever, it hasn't quite grabbed me the way that other Futurlab games have. The perspective and idea are very cool, though, and the mechanic of managing boost is interesting! I'd like to see a Micro Machines-esque points mode which resets when a racer gets a long way ahead, as at the moment once a racer is a couple of corners down the road from you they're GOOOOOONE. The game just needs more 'stuff', and more ability to fall off the track. Maybe power-ups. I wonder if Futurlab will continue development or whether this is it.

Anybody playing holoball? I've made it onto the highscore leaderboards, but I can only think it's because nobody is playing it. Please add me if you can for scores.

Ah shit, I forgot I had that. It's really good but I've barely touched it. A proper workout!

Can anyone recommend a good set of headphones for the PSVR. I'm currently using wireless Sennheiser's  for all my viewing via my amp but that's a no-go with my PSVR. The 3D audio is lovely but pretty weedy via the supplied buds. Would like some over the ears really but would imagine the logistics of fitting over the HMD need to be considered.

Been playing at least 2 hours a night this week. Can't get enough. Looking forward to my match against Hard Mode tonight, won't be easy.

In regards to watching 3D movies, does anyone use the LittlStar app for this purpose? I did some googling and found that it supports loading of files on USB stick. Either 180-SBS or 360-SBS (which means nothing to me other than obviously being a 360 degree field of view versus only 180).

 

 Had a look on the high seas and found a number of 3D movies that could be downloaded, and nearly all were labelled "Half-SBS" which I also assumed to mean 180 degrees.

 

I grabbed the first one of interest (lets euphemistically call it "Professor Weird") and loaded it up to play. It does actually load and start the movie, but holy jebus that can not be what it's meant to look like. It stretches the picture vertically and wraps it all over to fill the full circular view-hole of the headset, so everything is distorted. It also looks incredibly grainy and messed up.

 

I'm obviously doing it wrong - I expected it to be like when you watch in cinema mode, but with a 3D image on the rectangular virtual screen.

 

Can anyone tell me how to get on the right track?

 

edit - tried to find an answer myself, it seems like I misunderstood when I heard it supports 3D movies - it actually only supports VR movies.

 

Does such a thing even exist yet? Just demo reels and porn I imagine.
