I've been meaning to watch Love Hurts because Ke Huy Quan but everyone told me the same as you, it's boring.

Sounds amazing and love the cast; will definitely check this out.

WMR always had USB/Controller tracking issues. Never had any illusion that the Reverb G2 would be my go to device for roomscale games but it is AMAZING for seated/sim VR games... even in 2025.

BTW: so happy to see you are enjoying your Somnium VR1; I often miss your live streams but watch your vids

It was kinda frustrating since Vive already had Motion Controllers at the time. Fir me personally it was okay since I mainly used the Rift for simulation games and had a SimRig.

I'm still using my Rift S from time to time for Cyberpunk2077 (VR mod) because of the 80hz refresh rate.

My first HMD was the Rift CV1 in 2016. Back then there were no motion controllers (the CV1 came with an Xbox controller, Touch released a year later) and therefor games like Edge of Nowhere were my bread and butter ๐Ÿ˜Š.

Meta requires an annual recertification check for VR games using its platform, giving studios a 60-day warning to complete this. If you don't follow the procedure, those games get delisted. That's almost certainly what happened with Insomniac, and I'm glad to see these games available again

Loved Edge of Nowhere & Stormland back in the day, replayed EoN multiple times and recently last December.
They are both well worth revisiting/playing in 2025.

So happy to hear Edge of Nowhere & Stormland are back in the store.

Hopefully The Unspoken will be back soon too.

Most Of Insomniac's VR Games Have Returned To The Rift Store Insomniac Games has relisted three of its titles on Meta's PC VR store, and The Unspoken should soon follow.

So frustrating, especially for people like me who still use it mainly for sim games via OpenXR.
I don't need WMR updates for controllers, handtracking etc.
WMR HMD driver support in Windows is all I want/need.

I have NO clue why but my HP Reverb G2 started working again
Didn't change any hardware (PC, cables), didn't install new/rollback any software or drivers and didn't update/rollback Win11 22h2 (had updates disabled since WMR support ended with that version)

It's a mystery but I'm not complaining lol

A spectacle monopolized
The camera's eyes on choice disguised
They hold the reins and stole your eyes

It has to start somewhere, it has to start sometime
What better place than here, what better time than now?

All hell can't stop us now
All hell can't stop us now

UEVR - Transform Unreal Engine Games into VR Experiences

VR gaming offers most value to those regularly accessing a small number of titles. It also offers value for those exploring the huge variety in VR gaming. There's lots to see.

It falls short for those seeking AAA games and/or wide coverage in a single genre, but modded PCVR helps, e.g. uevr.io.

Went to a special screening of Jurassic Park at a local cinema today... took me right back when I saw it as a kid in 1993.

The music of this awe
Deep silence between the notes
Deafens me with endless love

We are shuddering
Before the beautiful
Before the plentiful

We, the voyagers

That game is my main regret for not having bought into the PSVR2 eco system.
Love to see how much you guys enjoy the multiplayer races.

Ah well, I'll keep on trucking over here on PCVR on my own ๐Ÿ˜Š
