This coming Saturday, join host Gene Turnbow as he welcomes Gregory A. McMartin back to the show for a fascinating intellectual romp through the modern landscape of computer game development, IDGI’s place in the world of VR narrative games, and how artificial intelligence is affecting the game industry as a whole.
Consortium / Consortium VR, Consortium: The Tower and the upcoming Whispers from the Rift all use a groundbreaking user interface control mechanism: your voice. In narrative storytelling, this lets you interact with game characters in the most immersive way possible. It is an absolutely transformative experience, and in VR it’s the closest thing anybody has ever achieved in terms of making VR like being on a holodeck.
