The team looks back over the weekend and discuss our Favourites of rAge Expo 2016. We share our thoughts with you guys on yet another Team Talk session. Check it out what we loved.
rAge 2016 has come and gone. Lots of fun was had. The team takes a moment and looks back at what we really enjoyed the most over the weekend at South Africa’s biggest gaming expo. For the first time ever in the history of SkyGamers, the entire team seems to be on the exact same page. I’m so surprised that we all ended up having the same experience as our favourite of the show. Check out the results below.

Rage has come and gone so let us reflect on what the show offered this year round. New to this year was the section dedicated to cosplay, artistic works and merchandise. My highlight of the Rage show was testing Sony’s VR platform to see if the hype matched my expectations … and Hell yes.
It was an out of body experience in the sense of the word, my only gripe is the graphics needed some polishing. The waiting time to experience the VR is ludicrous with a wait time of 1.5 hours, really! My attention shifted to the Xbox stand where I focused all my attention on Gears of war 4 and I loved every kerb stop moment, this is sure to be a winner when it comes out tomorrow. The show concentrated more on the gaming aspect which did not leave a lot of room for other exhibitors that were present in previous years. There was a lack of stands selling specials on games, pity.

And the winner is…PlayStation VR. The experience completely blew me away. Online complaints of nausea and “screen-door-effect” were completely wiped away on my session. I’ll admit it, the resolution may be slightly worse off than the Oculus or Vive. But when that game is running, you won’t notice or care. What takes your breath away the most is the scale you feel when inside the experience. It’s so very difficult to explain VR to someone, it’s one of those things you have to experience yourself to understand. When the headset arrives in Sout African shores, you can bet your bottom dollar it will be mine.

That’s a 3 for 3 for the PlayStation VR. We enjoyed it that much! Keep it locked to SkyGamers for more of your favourite gaming events. Happy Gaming!
I hope there are more VR headsets this year!
A Little birdie told me there definitely will be, we’re definitely going to be tearing it up with all you guys!
