Madden and Virtual Reality Gaming

[BleedGreen710]

I was thinking today about the future of video games and how virtual reality could effect sports games. I've already seen it used for some other games and it looks incredible. Now, imagine a version of first person football where you can actually look around as you control your player by turning your head? or maybe a re-imagined passing cone that moves as you actually move your head to look around the field for your receivers. I'm really excited for the possibilities. Anyone have any other ideas for how a virtual reality headset could be used in Madden? Do you think it has any chance of happening in the future? Would love to hear your thoughts.

I def think there's a place for it. Football seems like a match made in heaven for a vr sports game. I won't touch it bc it's not my cup of tea but there's potential for it to be big.

I don't see first person doing very well, but a similar angle that we play at could be a pretty amazing experience. Would need to be on PC though, we won't have consoles that can put the kind of fidelity that's in the current Madden at the proper framerate and resolution per eye for probably a couple of console generations.

??? You do know PlayStation is coming out with VR for ps4 right?

There's no way a PS4 could render the current version of Madden two times concurrently at 90 fps.

Scorpio might come pretty close, if rumors are to be believed.

Maybe. It's about as powerful as a 980ti, which is what I have. I don't have a vr headset but I could see a lot of games running just fine on it
