Good News for VR Porn From the GDC 2018
Do we have any fans of the HTC peripherals over here? We certainly do, as the Vive VR visors are super popular amongst the VR porn viewers - and that's exactly why VR Bangers feel obliged to tell you some news about them. Some of you may know that in this very moment we're in the middle of the Game Developers Conference (GDC 2018), which is a big thing for every tech-loving fan. This year's HTC presentation was actually pretty huge, bringing not one but two important news for all the Vive users - and people that are about to join this family.
Two years ago, a lot of people spent $800 for an HTC Vive VR headset providing a full roomscale VR experience with hand controls. This price strikes us again like a déjà vu, giving all the tech savvy people an opportunity to get themselves a significant upgrade - HTC Vive Pro pre-orders have been officially released with a starting price of $800! This version will work with existing controllers and base stations, so if you bought some of the peripherals in the past, you'll be able to keep using them for your favorite VR games, VR movies and your beloved VR porn videos.
The original Vive started shipping in April 2016, equipped with controllers and base stations to track the headset’s movement throughout a room. Pre-orders for Vive Pro started today on Vive.com and Amazon.com, so if you're interested in getting the upgrade, you should head there straight away. What's even better, purchasing the Vive Pro VR headset before June 3 will bundle in a six-month subscription to Viveport - the app store for virtual reality where customers can explore, create, connect, and experience the content they love and need.
The Vive Pro’s marquee feature is the significant increase in resolution, bringing it in line with Samsung’s Odyssey headset with a combined 2880 x 1600 resolution - which is an upgrade from both the original Vive and Rift featuring 2160×1200 total resolution. The Vive Pro also includes integrated headphones and slight improvements to overall comfort of their usage - and we know how important factor that is when it comes to watching the VR porn videos.
Second good news from HTC concerns the classic version of the VR goggles. From now on, the permanent global price will be dropped for the original HTC Vive package - now it's priced at $500, making it more affordable and bringing its' price closer to the Facebook’s Oculus Rift at $400. In total, that’s a $300 drop from their aforementioned original value at launch in April 2016 - this is some great news, yet a huge problem at the same time.
What do we mean by that? If you own a pair of VR goggles already and you're satisfied with their performance for your favorite VR porn movies, that's fine, but what if you're looking to get yourself a new pair? What should you do: buy a discounted older version, or get yourself a brand new, upgraded one at the previous price of the old ones? VR Bangers leave the decision to all of you - they'll both work like a charm for our VR porn videos, so for us it really doesn't change anything, sirs.
