I am dead. Who killed me? Tokyo Chronos is a VR Visual Novel with a mystery murder theme from one of the producers of Sword Art Online. As a VR adaptation, Tokyo Chronos isn’t your typical visual novel. Note that it cannot be played without a VR headset, but I have had some success with […]
Known for their VR headsets, Pimax is taking a step into the handheld world with their new Pimax Portal. This 4K Hybrid VR Gaming System can play Android titles, and PC and console titles via the Cloud, but also works as a Virtual Reality headset. As a disclaimer, our experience is based on a ‘pre-release’ version. While […]
Describing itself as a ‘4K Hybrid VR Gaming System‘, The Pimax Portal is a new handheld gaming system. It not only plays Android games, but it’s suited for cloud gaming, and even has a virtual reality mode. It seems to do quite a few more things on top of that too. Pimax kindly sent us […]
With the rollout of the Pimax Crystal and Portal imminent, I thought I’d share a couple of interesting updates about these VR headsets. As those of you on our Discord may know, I first got into virtual reality after trying a free experience with a HTC Vive, which I then bought (soon followed by several […]
The Pico 4 ALL-in-One VR Headset by ByteDance is a standalone Virtual Reality headset, competing with the Meta Quest 2 as a device for room-scale virtual reality (VR). Should you consider it over the more well-known Meta headset? There are certainly some reasons to look at which I’ll explore in this review. What Can It Do? To […]

DPVR has kindly sent us a review unit of their DPVR E4 VR headset ahead of its UK launch. We will of course have a full review after thoroughly evaluating it (Update: Find it here!), but wanted to post some initial impressions first. As always, please keep in mind that this first article is only […]
Like many kids, I entertained fantasies of becoming a marine biologist when I grew up. That may not have happened, but I still find the ocean fascinating. How cool would it be to tour marine biomes in the cockpit of a submersible? It’s something I sadly doubt I’ll ever have the chance to do, so […]
There’s been a murder in paradise. Here crime isn’t just low, but it shouldn’t even be possible. Protected from the dangerous outside world, this is a futuristic city where every resident is connected to a collective dream and everything is monitored. How did it happen? And is everything really as pleasant as it seems? These […]
The Oculus Quest 2 (or Meta Quest 2 as they’re now calling it) is an amazing headset, as we explained in our review. But sometimes you want things to feel a little more real. If you’re waving a sword or golf club about in virtual reality, the shape of the controller in your hand does break […]
