There’s no shortage of speculation when it comes to all things Valve. Tyler McVicker, YouTuber and one of the leading voices dedicated to deciphering Valve’s various internal developments, however now reports that not only is the company’s long-awaited standalone VR headset still coming, but it may arrive alongside its own Half-Life game.

Valve’s much hyped standalone, known only as ‘Deckard’, is “still very much in production,” McVicker maintains, saying that according to his sources that Valve “still intend[s] on shipping this piece of hardware.

Theres no way to get an equivalent of; 3 3D Positional+Rotational inputs

Someone never played Jurassic Park: Trespasser and it shows.

Also:

Analog sticks

lolwut? Just use a controller.

It really comes down to how the game is designed. It wouldn't feel as cool since you're not actually using your body, but there's no reason it couldn't work as any other FPS already does and then also have the full VR experience too for those with the hardware. Plenty of games do this.

The point wasn't the analog sticks on their own, it was being able to coordinate all of them, or an equivalent, in unison.

It’s like… beyond-analogue-sticks AND you still have two analogue sticks you can use while using the 3.5d super analogue sticks that are your whole ass arms.

VR is nuts.
