I'm no doctor, but I can't see why it would "cause" it, unless you already struggle with it.

@OldGuyVRGamesReviews Just kidding, love the idea of this channel 💪

It does have multiplayer. I'm not sure what a "Marklin" game is.

@@OldGuyVRGamesReviews Märklin is the model trains , imagine building a model train park in vr xD

@@Mre942 That would be very cool. I would buy that. I did train modeling back in the 1970s, and when I retired, I thought I would try it again, and the prices were crazy! I then tried a 1/4 scale remote controlled motorcycle doing Evel Knievel style jumps in 1/4 scale but after a few crashes, it was hard and expensive to get it fixed. So, I got into VR instead. There is one coming out this year where you get to drive recreations of real trains. You start out on small easy ones and make your way up to faster, longer and cooler ones as you make your way learning how to drive trains.

It is the hardest of them all, but without the first two, you might not be ready for three.

Thanks. That's cool for you. I'm glad you are getting good positive results from playing games. Keep up to good work.

Thank you. You don't have to be 50 or more to watch my videos, it just helps to relate to our opinion about VR games at an older age.

Thank you. I really not sure why that is. I have 50 or more posted now. The programming is a little weird to me.

when you click on my page, then click on the word "videos" and it will show all the videos I have to that point in time. th-cam.com/channels/z1wyXfAAQjTRXKT91txbuA.html

Thank you. I really enjoy just sitting back and checking out all the locations. They recently added more new ones.

I played a lot of Arcade games between the Atari 2600 and the Quest 2.

I have a video on this page and a written-out article on the corresponding Facebook page that has many different ways to lessen or completely eliminate motion sickness from playing VR. Check it out. It helped my wife a lot. She used to get ill quickly but after applying a couple of the ideas in the video/script she now can play for hours at a time before starting to feel the effects.

My wife recently got me the Q3 to replace my Q2, for my birthday. I'm loving it.

Thank you. I have over 550 games/apps and it goes up every week. For now, I'm sticking with the better games to play to review and not trashing the horrible ones out there. I started this page in October 2024 so it's still fairly new but growing.

@ You know I really respect that idea a lot my friend. I see so many channels that’ll feature a game from a smaller developer that may not have the budget or the ability to update as often and the game gets bashed. I can’t wait to see the channel grow and you’ve got my full support! Thanks for accepting my request. I’m sure I’ll use your link for some games in the future! Thanks! Brion

All the games I review are from the Meta Store. I do not use steam or Sidequest. They are basically for the Quest 3, Q3S. I do not know if other platforms have this. You need VR & MR capabilities.

Thank you.

Thank you. Yes, I'm sure, and my health problems say I am. I was a Disc Jockey on and off for 28 years. I also had a comedy show & a movie review TV show on local Cable TV back in the early 80s.

Thank you. I feel like I'm 105. I've been suffering from a cold/flu thing for two weeks. Been coughing through those videos. I sound like "Froggy" from the Little Rascals/ They are scheduled to show in a month or so. I'm going to try to make more videos today. The show must go on!

Not sure what you mean by "frame jumping" but if you are speaking of the black area that pops in and out on the right side of the screen, that's something with the Quest 2, that they have to help people not get motion sickness while watching the video. It's kind of annoying but I keep it in so that other can enjoy the long videos without motion sickness. I also don't like that the yellow outline of my boundary shows up when I look down.

You don't have to worry about the carpet getting clogged in the wheels or the electronics with this game. 😀

Many people had that same experience when it came out.

That sounds wonderful. Thanks.

Have you made any VR games I might have played?

Once I was out of school and making money, I also spent many hours in the mall arcade, chucky cheese and other arcade locations. A few weeks ago, I was in two different ones at the Mall of America. Played the JAWS pinball and a wall size Pac Man.

Tell me more. Is it for the Quest VR headset? Is it in app lab or the Meta store? What kind of game is it? And to warn you, if I do play it and it sucks, I WILL SAY THAT without any hesitation. There are a few game creators in the Meta store not happy with my reviews when their game was a total waste of time.

The quest 2 had that ability of hiding the floor boundary, but I haven't found a way in the Quest 3. I know I hate it when it shows up.

Not at this point, but that's a cool idea.

That would be great! Thanks for the information.

Thank you for watching the video. You have some interesting ideas for my page so let's look at them. Editing software: By not editing the videos, it shows that I am a real person, that I do make mistakes, and I am not perfect. It also shows that I am not A.I. and allows the viewer to get to know me better and maybe trust my opinion. Shorter videos: I want people to see more and the actual game play, and not video provided by the creators of the games. One does have the ability to skip forward over parts they do not wish to view. Most reviewers chop it up and only show the "exciting parts" as a way to fool people into buying the game because they are sponsored and don't want to anger any sponsors or possible future sponsors. My videos are for people 50 and up. If people under 50 watches, that is wonderful, but I am aiming for the older audience to educated them on the games so they can then decide for themselves if they would enjoy the game or decide to not waste their money on it. Thanks again, if you have any more ideas for me, please private message them to me to check out.

@@OldGuyVRGamesReviews private message on facebook, I'm guessing?

I think I'm past that area, but all the caves I went into where the bug came out were dead ends. Maybe I missed something?

This game just came out for Christmas, I'm guessing the developers will continue to work on it, create new things and possibly the crossover as you mentioned. As long as people are playing, they should continue to improve it. I only play Quest games, so I don't know if it is available on other systems. I would guess it is for the Quest system only for now.

While still in the "build" mode, if you should point either of your controllers at any piece of the game, and squeeze either the grip or the trigger, the game will think you want to do something with that piece and if you are not aware of what you are doing, that piece can end up moving. Once you are done building and want to race the car, you can "save" the track which takes it out of the "build" mode. You can then later go back into the "build" mode and add/subtract or move things. As long as you are still in "build" mode things can accidently be moved with the controller without realizing it. I hope that helps. Not sure if I actually answered your question. Did you do a really good scan of the room before starting your build? When I scanned my room, I walked around to make sure it got everything including the space behind my couch so I could later place a track behind it to run a race there.

@@OldGuyVRGamesReviews Thanks for the quick response, there's a bit to take in. Firstly, the scan, are you suggesting the game has a scan mode itself or just the standard system scan? I probably have never done any form of room scan to make it ready for any MR, only a scan for setting up the usual VR boundary, so maybe that is the place to start this conversation. What is this scan you are referring to? How do I initiate that? I can't say I noticed it.

@@MadMaxToo61: Somewhere in the settings is a button to click to scan your rooms for the headset. I also recently had another MR game that asked me to scan the room. When I did the original scan, it asked me to walk around slowly and look around to scan everything. It made a grind of the room marking off and labeling everything in the room like tables and chairs. I scanned the Livingroom, the hallway, the kitchen and the steps leading to the third floor. That scan is what I am guessing allows me to move around, even outside the boundary and run the cars behind the couch.

@@OldGuyVRGamesReviews Cheers, I asked Google and it replied with 'To perform a full room scan on a Meta Quest 3, go to your headset settings, navigate to "Environment setup" > "Space setup" where you can initiate a room scan using the integrated depth sensor; this will allow you to digitally map out your room's boundaries and layout within the virtual environment. ' Thanks for your help I will check that out. I also got mirroring to my Loungeroom Television happening tonight, so 5 other people got to see what was happening at our Chinese New Year's gathering and showed people the game.

Sounds very cool! Is it available for all to play? What's the name.

I wish I could help you with that problem, but I am NOT a "gamer" or a developer or a person who knows anything about the technical ins and outs of the technical side of these things. Back four years ago I watched a step-by-step video from a young lady who led me through the part about the developer mode. I'm sure it has changed in the last 4 years so maybe she or other gamers have a video on TH-cam that can help you out. I don't think I have ever needed to use the "developer" mode for anything? I do not sideload games, I only buy them or get them free through the meta store. Maybe someone can message you with the information or a link to a video to help you out. Best of luck, thank you for watching this video.

@ many thanks for your prompt and detailed response I very much appreciate it 🙂🙏

I'm finding more and more people 50 and up getting into VR. I'm guessing some of the reasons are we tend to have disposable income to spend on them. We are the very end of the "Boomers" and the beginnings of "Gen X", so our upbringing has kept us young at heart and our imaginations running wild. We (most) are also done with the "Wild & Crazy" antics of life and are settling down into a comfortable place to relax and have fun without excessive consumption of drugs and/or alcohol. Put this all together and we are perfect for VR like the Quest 2, Q3 & Q3S and beyond.

Oh, I’m 65 and I’m still building model cars and gaming. Nothing wrong with still being a kid inside race on.

@@lloydgriffin546: As a kid in the 60's & 70's I was really into model railroading. I went to look into doing this again, and the prices are just crazy! I see there is a new game being created at this time where you actually learn to and get to drive a train (full size) which if done right could be cool. Maybe the same people who make the slot car game could do the same thing but replace it with train tracks and locomotives.

Thanks for the offer and subscribing to my page. I've never done a video with anyone else but my wife. I also do not show myself in my videos so I'm not sure how that would work for you. I also only play games that are available through the Meta Quest store. I do not hook up to a computer for gaming, and I do not use sideloaded games/apps.

@@OldGuyVRGamesReviews I didn't have anything in particular in mind. Just making connections. 😁

The more I play it, the more I like it.

Yes, my wife has a hard time standing for more than a few minutes in one place. Her legs really begin to hurt. We have a chair nearby for when she needs to rest, or she plays seated. You can change the angle of the putter, making it a little easier to play seated, but it's not the same as looking straight down on the ball for those putts.

My wife bought me a Q3 for my birthday so all the videos for 2025 are now made on the Q3.

Thanks for the information. I haven't been back to play since I made this video. I will remember that next time. I have over 550 games and keeping this page and the Facebook page going has turned into a full-time job for a retired old man. I don't think I personally have the patience or time to play "story driven" games and finish them.

When you go to buy it, the instructions say it can be played on the Quest 2, but I think your surrounding areas will be either black/gray and very grainy. I recorded on the Quest 3 for the color surroundings. I hope you find it as enjoyable as I do. I'm a all or nothing kind of person so that was my fault. You can gently squeeze the trigger and the car will go. The harder you squeeze in the faster it will go. The car also gains speed the longer you hold in the trigger. I played one tonight that was all loops and I have the problem of just squeezing the trigger all the way in until the car crashes. With the loops it just kept getting faster and faster going around and around. It was so fast that I could not even follow the car with my eyes. Eventually it finally flew off the track.

@ …..and that is what I meant, in real slot cars, they do not keep getting faster the longer you hold the trigger down. There is a top speed they reach when the trigger is held down. On a real slot car track, you would need a decently long straight to get to that top speed, but even if you had one 10x as long, you wouldn’t get any faster. That characteristic in the VR game seems wrong to me. Also, if I held the trigger half way down, in the real slot cars, you’d get a steady half speed on the track, but I suspect, from the way you have described it, that in the VR, if you held the throttle half way down you would not get to a half car speed, but the car would just continue to pick up speed but at maybe half the acceleration vs holding the trigger fully down. It’s like there is no real world physics involved in the calculation of vehicle speed, the trigger is just an accelerator and when held the car keeps accelerating at the rate the trigger is squeezed to. In real slot cars, the trigger is controlling the voltage reaching the motor in the car, usually, up to 12v max, that limits the top speed, as does the gearing used, friction, weight, aerodynamics, etc. This seeming lack of physics in the speed calc of the cars makes me wonder if there is any differences in the way different models of cars perform in the VR game. For example, in the real world a beginner might be better off with a heavier, lower centre of gravity car because it will be slower and less prone to coming off the track, but I suspect that there is little to no difference in the car handling in the VR game. It wasn’t just top speed, the way the cars slowed seemed too abrupt as well, like they didn’t have much momentum. I still think it looks like a great VR idea, but, I’d like to see a v2 where the modelling of the cars handling is significantly improved. It would be neat if you could import your own 3d models for cars and buildings & objects too. It would also be great if there was support in the track editor for multi lane layouts too, with cross over sections of track where you can switch your car from one slot to another, or continue on your own slot - real world slot cars have this now using digital chips in the car & PCM signals in the electrical feed in the track rails to the car so cars can remain independently controlled. Yeah, you are right, re the Quest 2, the pass through video of your surroundings is poor, just being black and white and very grainy. I’ve looked through a Quest 3 and was really impressed by how much better the pass through is. The pass through on Quest 2 is not a huge issue until you start looking at augmented reality games, where the game appears to be located within your real world surroundings, then the Quest 2 is really lacking. My son bought his Quest 2 secondhand, the 3 was out and on sale already, and we discussed if it was worth paying the extra for (but had not looked through either). Ultimately it came down to cost, the used quest 2 was about a third of the price, AND that neither of us had any experience with VR headsets, but my son was keen to get something to try it out, see what he thought about it, and a cheap quest 2 is good for that.

@@TheLDunn1: It's a new game and possibly the developers will make these little changes as it grows in popularity? I know other games makes changes as for what the people ask for.

@ it would be good to see, because they have put a lot in elsewhere to make this potentially great.

I think this game has really great potential for the future. If you keep upgrading and adding things, you could have a long-lasting game. This video has gotten almost 9K views in less than 4 days. It became my first "viral" video. People my age (50 and up) LOVE slot cars, and a well-made game fulfils their childhood dreams. I have several ideas your team may be interested in.

I would love a mixed reality rc car racing game with different disciplines like street buggy and drift if thats something the team could look into

@@Twowheelsandadream: I actually saw a year or go a RC racing game being worked on, but the company at that time said it would not be for the Oculus headsets. They released a different game for Oculus, but it didn't get enough purchases, so they said no to other games for it.

Love this but as a dev what aboit being able to sit IN the car
