Rant 1152 / Omni, Rift, Hydra And Kinect.

So after Oculus Rift got big, now we have Omni.

The Rift is a pair of virtual reality goggles that gamers will be able to wear instead of looking at a monitor.

But that's not what I want to talk about here.

The Omni is what's exciting now.



It's a device in which gamers can move in to control movement in the game instead of using the keyboard and mouse. Together with the Kinect, it can detect walking, running, crouching, jumping and etc.

Without the Kinect, probably just walking and running.

That's the big issue I see despite the hype - it's very pointless without other devices like the Kinect and a virtual gun. Imagine just walking while trying to aim with a mouse! I'm not even going to talk about running!

And even with the Kinect, leaping is going to be dangerous. Since it can support up to 130kg with only a safety factor of 2, after a few years when it gets old, a heavy guy of perhaps 100kg leaping forward may just break the belt assembly. Just look at the legs - they don't look that sturdy.

Also, crouching here means simply bending forward.

As for the weapon, there is the Hydra but it looks very difficult to aim with atm.

But the most important point about this is that the Omni is just the latest step towards a new generation of gaming controllers. Using this together with the Oculus Rift, the Kinect and the Hydra, gaming is going to be changed forever.

I'm not excited about these machines per se; I'm excited about what they are pioneering because they all have huge flaws.


























This run in Zafehouse: Diaries really taught me a valuable lesson: it's possible to clear less infested buildings with just one good person. In the following diary, I used the final survivor for a suicide run just because I didn't feel like quitting after the other four died. She ended up lasting far longer than I had anticipated.

Despite not knowing the time and location, this is the closest I have ever been to winning the game.

Now I know what to do: breach an easy building with one or two people better suited for it, then send in the rest to search each place while the attack party moves on to the next building.
























Just remembered I also bought Organ Trail. Derp.

...

Organ Trail is an interesting game. It's mostly about surviving through your journey but has a lot of 2D shooting, mainly because scavenging for resources requires the player to enter zombie-infested areas. Fortunately, it's 2D so it's quite simple.

Also kinda humourous. Probably would have been funnier if I had actually played the Oregon Trail before.
