I'm excited to play Astro Bot. Agreed that it's the closest thing right now but I wonder just how close it is. 10 years from now would an enhanced port of it still be worth people's time?I think yes. I've even seen people with very negative expectations end up being floored by the game.
How much has Valve talked about their VR games? I just assumed they would just be dumb simple things but that'd be awesome if they were full games.
It probably won't be compared to Super Mario 64, but I think it will be pretty positive still.
Pretty much the only thing that we know about the games are they are supposed to be "full" titles.
"When I say we're building three games, we're building three full games, not experiments"

I think they will be proper titles.
Even their "experiments" are meatier than some VR games, to be honest...
