Best VR Headsets Of 2022

He is one of some 3,000 young Venezuelans competing in the multi-million dollar "eSports" industry, a lucrative business with international signings, prizes and millions of viewers which has started to boom in the Andean nation, despite economic chaos, poor internet connection, power failures and local restrictions on war games.

Sept 7 (Reuters) - GameStop Corp on Wednesday reported a smaller-than-expected quarterly loss and a partnership with FTX US to increase its presence in the cryptocurrency space, sending the video game retailer's shares up 10% in extended trading.

Method 3: Cmd-Shift-5 A shortcut command introduced way back in MacOS Mojave in 2018, Cmd-Shift-5 calls up a small panel at the bottom of your display with your screen capture options. There are three screenshot buttons that let you capture the entire screen, a window or a selection of your screen. 

How to set up SMS protect Blizzard has shifted from its original stance that all accounts would need a verified phone number in order to launch the game. Blizzard originally stated that "certain types of phone numbers, including prepaid and VOIP, cannot be used for SMS Protect." The decision, which was intended to combat cheating and other disruptive behavior was criticized for leaving new and existing players behind: Of US adults ages 18-29, 38% have a prepaid plan, according to YouGov data. 

A new wave of next-gen headsets is expected in the next six months or so. Meta has a new VR headset (likely a Quest Pro) on the way that will support face tracking and mixed reality -- and will no doubt come with a pretty hefty (over $800) price tag. Similarly, Apple is expected to have some form of advanced VR-AR headset either late this year or early next year that could also be super-expensive. Sony is also expected to release the PlayStation VR 2, which will work with the PlayStation 5 and feature new controllers. And in the meantime, we may see more phone-connected headsets like the HTC Vive Flow start to pop up, too.

Playing PSVR on a PS4 still holds up, though. Sony has delivered -- and continues to deliver -- many excellent virtual reality games, many of them exclusives. (A few good games to start with are .) Note that this PlayStation VR headset is increasingly hard to get, and that may continue as Sony pivots to PSVR 2.

These tips also apply to the latest Macs, such as the recently updated the 13-inch MacBook Pro with a new M2 chip, and the M2 MacBook Air. From our early hands-on testing, the same tips work in MacOS Ventura, the next operating system update, currently still in beta. 

Longtime Mac screenshotters may be slow to adopt the Cmd-Shift-5 shortcut, but I find myself using it more for the ability to annotate screenshots without needing to open Preview, and quickly delete screenshots that I know immediately I messed up. The 5- and 10-second delay options are also useful and appreciated additions.

The company has since overhauled its management in an effort to reverse years of languishing sales and has been bolstering its e-commerce capabilities as online shopping accelerated during the pandemic.

One of the best Steam VR hardware options











Good: Futuristic controllers; high-quality headset; works with Vive hardware

Meta/Facebook is expected to have a new later this year, but its face tracking and better displays could add up to a $1000 price. The Quest 2 remains the recommended pick until a Quest 3 arrives, which may not happen until 2023.

The dream of earning a living as a professional gamer is particularly resonant for many young people in Venezuela given the sparse opportunities otherwise available in a country with a minimum monthly salary equivalent to about $22 a month.

A playground of demos "A lot of pkv Games usually come from a narrative or a desire to tell a particular story. And in our case, the story is all about the mechanical device and its possibilities," Nicolas Doucet, Creative Director at Sony's Japan Studio, says about Team Asobi and how it made Astro's Playroom.

"There are a lot of interested people, there is a lot of talent here in Venezuela, a lot of players," said Abreu.

Valve's headset is starting to age, but its Steam VR and Vive hardware compatibility, its excellent audio, and its  still make it hardware worth considering. Valve's "knuckle" controllers are pressure-sensitive and can track all five fingers, making them almost like gloves. Not all apps make the most of them, but Valve's hardware is mix-and-match compatible with the HTC Vive, which also is built on the Steam VR platform. The Index headset has excellent audio and a sharp, wide field-of-view display.
