Dell intros its own VR headset for Microsoft’s Mixed Reality Platform

While it it still hasn’t quite captured our imaginations fully just yet, the rise of virtual reality gaming and the like is well under way. Products like Sony VR, Oculus and even the HTC Vive have been around for a while now, but the technology still hasn’t quite permeated through the masses just yet. With the fairly recent announcement of Microsoft’s Window Mixed Reality platform, it likely won’t be long before the Xbox division jumps in to the next dimension as well.

Unveiled today, the first hardware directly compatible with the still somewhat mysterious new Microsoft VR/AR platform is the Dell Visor. Featuring a now familiar looking form factor, the Visor will be available later this year as the first out of the gate for Redmond’s new Mixed Reality platform.

Secret of Mana remake coming to PS4 & Steam w/ new visuals and multiplayer [Video]

Back in the early 90’s a little Japanese role playing game franchise saw its very first release, followed by what many (including myself) would consider to be one of the best JRPGs ever made: Secret of Mana. The game, and the entire series to some degree, is one of the earliest action-based role playing games and has carried a strong following ever since. After Square Enix unveiled plans to release the Seiken Densetsu Collection (that is what the Mana series is called in Japan) that included all three games from the series, the company has now announced the official Secret of Mana remake for PS4, Vita and Steam…

Despite receiving its fair share of criticism since release last year, Final Fantasy XV is largely considered to be a success with several spin-offs and expansion DLCs carrying the project into 2017. While I certainly thought we might see a Switch announcement for the latest fantasy epic, it looks like Square will be turning to mobile platforms first.

Update: You can now get the Sega Genesis Classic Game Console (refurbished) for $26.49 shipped from Worlds Best Deals through Rakuten. This normally goes for $100 new from Amazon, so you save almost 75% here. Worlds Best Deals also has the Atari Flashback 7  (refurbished) on sale for $19.99 shipped, normally $50 new at Amazon. If you’re into retro gaming, these are some deals that you just can’t pass up.

GameStop is offering a pre-owned Sega Dreamcast Console for $44.99 shipped right now. That’s about $5 off the usual price at GameStop (if they are even available) and the best price we can find from a reputable dealer. While it may be possible to find one for less at a local game shop or on eBay in a bundle or something, you’ll have to do some digging and probably get lucky.
