I still haven't got around to throwing money at the VOID for Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire , & there's already a new adventure coming. Yesterday this sneak peek for that new adventure came out, & Ralph Breaks VR looks every bit as immersive & entertaining as it's predecessor. Now I've gotta find a way to not only play catchup, but hit this new experience as well. Like Secrets of the Empire , this is a full interactive VR, through an interactive maze, for a team of four. This one looks like it incorporates mini-games within the experience. Once my funds are correct I'm probably going to try both of these back to back, & come back to let y'all know what it was like. If it was worth it, which was better, & whether or not I'd return again. Until then, check out t hi is sneak peek, & let me know what you think. Put it in the comments, like, & share.
Wreck-It Ralph Is Getting A Hyper-Reality VR Experience!!
I haven't even tried Star Wars: Secrets of the Empire yet!! Nonetheless, the Walt Disney Company & ILMxLAB is teaming up with the VOID to create a hyper-reality VR experience for Wreck-It Ralph. Ralph Breaks VR will transport you into the world of gaming & the internet in a multi-sensory adventure. It's slated for later this fall, & I can't tell whether this will be a replacement or an addition. They're talking about how excited they are to visit other Disney Franchise worlds, & that had me leaning toward addition. Either way it sounds awesome. I might have to get Star Wars out the way now just in case. I'd love this place to turn into a choose your own adventure of sorts. That'd be friggin awesome. What about y'all? Down for some VR with Ralph & Penelope? Put it in the comments, like, & share.
CEO Bob Iger Favors AR Over VR in Disney Parks
LA Times reports that Bob Iger, CEO of Walt Disney Company, while speaking at a USC Marshall and Annenberg event in Santa Monica on Thursday said no way to virtual reality. A lot of parks in the states are using virtual reality to soup up all their old roller coasters that no one's really riding anymore. Much like myself, he favors an augmented reality over a virtual reality opening your view to the world where you can look around yourself, & not be closed off to what's around you. He went on to enlighten us on the fact that he spends each Tuesday afternoon at a Disney engineering lab sporting a head worn device that enables him to hold a lightsaber and duel away with a stormtrooper. I know this would be a personal dream of myself. Yet it also makes me wonder how he gets anything else done with the abilty to do this? The only other details was his want to make the device lighter & smaller. Stupid question, but would you want to fight stormtroopers with lightsabers in AR?
