Valve gives up many traditional computer games and focus on VR gaming fields. This project seems like a gambling since it will not achieve benefits at the beginning since this market is new and not stable. But this project may bring the whole gaming markets to a next generation and these three VR games will be in the history of games for sure. ]]> 2017-04-02 04:14:42 UTC https://padlet.com/liyuening316_/l0jshtv9i4lv/wish/164139529
