So after spending all of time in the oculus cinema, watching twitch and movies. A thought came to mind. Why can't I play 2d games in a 3d environment. For example, playing gta 3 on the big cinema screen. I was iffy about PlayStation vr until I realized Sony is probably planning this. Playing some destiny on the big screen would be real enjoyable. Any ideas if these ideas are already being developed?

Well you can if you have a modern NVidia GPU you can use StreamTheater
It will show your PC screen in an Oculus cinema like app.

Looks really great on the K1!! I've been playing this on my Shield Portable and I'm loving it. I just wish more games like this were ported to the handheld.

I really wish they would've allowed Single Player though, I rarely have WiFi when I am playing games on my Shield Portable
Wow I may have to get this for my portable but I'm definitely getting it when I get my shield tablet
Is this game choppy when playing on the TV?
I found many games to be choppy/dropping fps making the game stutter for 0.025 sec without a reason when playing on the built in screen...games like Dead Trigger 2, Horn, Walking Dead.
Trine 2 also feels choppy at some points (especially the intro video).
Are all the controls mapped or did you have to set up anything using the mapper? I tried Order and Chaos on my Shield portable and it was a pain. This looks pretty fun though.
Is this the same as the old one our like the new one on PC?

It depends on the map and how hectic it gets. It is generally smooth and a very enjoyable experience. I actually prefer playing on the TV through my tablet than on my PC. Just make sure it is on console mode and not mirror mode.
There are resolution sliders and performance tweaks you can turn on and off to get the experience you want. I ended up lowering the resolution and turning off shadows to get better framerates on bigger maps. I'll actually make a newer video to show the difference (I actually can't notice any difference while playing).

Controllers works without having to remap anything. There are options in-game to remap buttons if needed.

It is like the new one on PC. In the video I posted I am playing with other PC users.

I have a question, anyone know if it's possible to use a bluetooth keyboard and mouse to play this game on my shield tablet?
Not as awesome as I remember. Game is very laggy.

The game defaults to controller use with no way to set up a keyboard/mouse.
I refunded this game after playing a few matches, it lagged and it was not because of system lag it was server lag because of their stupid always online drm. I have really fast internet too 60/10 so that is pretty lame.

You only uploaded/recorded the gameplay in 720p though and not 1080 (what it is capable of over HDMI). I do appreciate the upload but for those looking to see how it looks, it will actually look even better than what's displayed in the video.

I agree with you. Im not sure if Jaunt did this cold play one but if it's the same guys who did Hobbit VR, Black Mass Trailer etc, they really need to step up their game. The bitrate and the quality of the video is pure crap. I still can't get over it... Even the mongolian hut demo and the circus demo was 10 times better than these.

Just give us a youtube VR player or that supposed Milk VR player, and quit putting 100 megabyte demo videos out At least then its a slim app and we can just watch what we want without downloading the gigs on the phone storage.
wow, Temple Run VR is insane. instant headaches. but oh so cool. love that you can around and see the monsters chasing you. definitely will take a bit getting used to

I thought that demo was way too short for any over heating to occur XD That one measly level was nothing! I wish they had the weapons system like anshar wars too
Haven't tried temple run but now I am interested * -*
Youtube would be great too ; 3;

Musics okay but the video and vr quality sucks. And I wish he covered his damn stomach lol.
Ok, todays, batch of apps are quite cool. I think the quality of the VR from Matterport is pretty stunning. I think the quality of their video is head and shoulders above what Jaunt does currently. Can't wait to see them cover more locations.
Edit: im going to try to find out if we can download more locations from their website http://matterport.com/

Hey guys,
Ok here is the thing, for over 3 years now I have held out on buying an Oculus rift, hoping the next few months the official customer version would be out, but that until now is yet to happen.
So I purchased the Gear VR to finally get to experience VR (since I know it wont affect me in buying the Oculus CV1) and boy am I blown away, but one thing I am dying to experience is how the world of Skyrim with its beautiful nature and giant mountains would look in VR.
Is there any way for me to shoot/screen capture a 360 and/or 3D video of game play in skyrim and view it through the gear VR to have a bit of what that experience would be like?
Thanks all :good:
There is an android app for Google cardboard being worked on to let you stream pc games in vr format to the phone, it's not natively compatible with the gear vr yet, and there is latency issues or course. It shows promise though. Your question made me wonder a follow up questtion: can someone make a pc program that let's you take a 360 photosphere video or at least photo from a game like skyrim? Like fraps, but a photosphere. That would be fantastic.

That is exactly what I was asking for
I know about the latency and stuff, and I know about the app you mentioned... I just wanted to be able to experience it much like you would watching a gameplay on youtube... except its a 360 video
Hello just wanted to know everyones experience with gear vr is it worth getting i used one and it seemed to blurry etc but in youtube videos its not like that anyway would like to hear from others how they are finding it
I use mine with a Note 5, and it is definitely not blurry. There is a slight "screen door effect" due to seeing all the pixels so close up, but that can fade into the background if you are not fanatical on looking for it. I play games, surf the web, watch video shorts, Netflix and Hulu on mine, and love the device. For $99 it was a great investment, until the Oculus 2 or Vive 2 come out in year or more. Get a bluetooth controller and play Gunjack, if you love to shoot things! I also have watched some of the VR events like the debates, a boxing match, or the Kentucky Derby, and it really makes you feel you are (almost) there.
****ing thrilled with mine, so many excellent freee apps and experiences. IMO gearVR should hold me over for a few years until VR market is more mature, then I'll upgrade to something better. VERY HAPPY AND AMAZED @ GEARVR!!!!

I got mine about a month ago and love it. It was mainly for watching 3D films at work, or Netflix. But I am now getting games and apps and haven't regretted any of it. End Space it awesome, and the kids are hooked on minecraft vr. Yes the pixels are noticeable if you actually look for them, but to be honest you only notice them while you wait for loading then forget about them when you get going.
I do recommend getting Milk VR app too, this plays your VR videos. Just use something like hola of you are outside US to get it.

Hello all,
Was wondering what games that you have played that are a must have.
Thanks
Surprised there aren't responses yet. I find Bandit Six to be very addicting. It's a simple game, but really fun. I just started playing Dragon Front, which is cool game. The graphics are a touch blurry, but I like the gameplay and quality. Then there's always Minecraft, which is so well done it is worth buying a game controller for.
Dead Drop
Affected Manor
Dead and Buried
Face your Fears (fear of clowns? This one is great, Please record video and youtube it)
My kids get a kick out of Jurassic World Apatosaurus
A game I got a lot of people hooked on is Zed Shot If you like zombie shooting games, this is my favorite. :good::highfive:

I was at a very high level on Bandit 6 with almost all of the upgrades on my S7 Edge. I assumed the games were backed up on Oculus. It stinks that all that work is lost and I have to start from the beginning. But it is a fun game. [emoji4]

I don't have a gear VR, but I do have the Daydream. Do they both have the same game selection? I do LOVE that the S8 and S8+ support Day Dream out of the box! I love this puzzle game called Claro. Here's the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.superbright.claro&hl=en
Claro was one of the free games I received with the S8, pre-order, free Galaxy VR promotion. I played it once. It looks nice but not my style of game.
