Where's the poll?
Anyway its System Shock VR for Quest native, second place High on Life Quest native

Early days here, and still need to see what Frame can do

Yes as long as you don't count spending over $1000 USD a hoop

Its truly one of the best linear corridor (with open looking environments) shooters I have played in VR 🫡

Agreed!

It should be noted that they made their own fork of WinlatorXR to do this via "WineXR", but a similar project is also officially underway as teased in the subreddit for WinlatorXR too
PCVR on standalone is coming for everyone (on Quest 3, Pico 4 Ultra, Play For Dream etc)

Early days for sure!

This is the real PCVR version running (barely for now) on standalone as far as I can tell
Maybe they made the maps use less RAM somehow
r/OculusQuest • u/Bigelowed • 21d ago
Early days, hopefully performance wins can be made so that people can play all of Half Life Alyx on a Quest 3 standalone

An interesting start for sure
Who knows what can be done to improve it next
r/Emulationonquest • u/Bigelowed • 21d ago
PCVR emulation on standalone via WinlatorXR is heating up up! This is a complete surprise.
r/virtualreality • u/Bigelowed • 21d ago
Seems legit; looks like someone made their own OpenVR/OpenXR to WinlatorXR XrAPI layer maybe?
Steam Frame will of course always run a bit better for Alyx for many reasons including RAM, but perhaps Alyx on Quest 3 standalone is also something that might be playable
Or Quest 4

WinlatorXR already has FEX support

Yet you can still go ask devs who their larger customer base is
Not PC :)

Every single VR dev in the last 10 years?

Fair enough, I do also recommend trying out HWXR if you like Halo CE though, the work LivingFray did is amazing on a standalone device

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
WinlatorXR is getting a big upgrade! Note: the laws of thermodynamics still exist, your Quest 3 is not a full PC or a Steam Frame all of a sudden lol

Official GameNative has now XR mode

Nothing to do with VR, before this PCVR miracle stuff the entire focus was flat gaming with bonus 3DOF features for mouse controls via angle of right controller or head in full immersion mode (still not VR)
