Marvel’s Iron Man VR hands-on — Free flight that doesn’t make me sick

Marvel’s Iron Man VR lets you fly around like Tony Stark in a near-invincible suit of armor in just about any direction that you desire. The game promises to be one of the first VR experiences that will be as big as a full video game when it comes out later this year.

I tried out the PlayStation VR game from Camoflaj at a Sony preview event recently, and it didn’t make me barf. That’s always a good sign in a virtual reality game, as it’s never guaranteed that a game won’t make me sick. And for a flying game, it’s a particularly good feat, as you can engage in free flight simply by pointing both hands downward and squeezing the triggers on the PlayStation Move controllers in your hands.
