    Any of the team at GDC,  I have been watching a lot of the streams and seeing some awesome stuff.  so far two new VR headsets HTC/Valve and Sony's. 

     

    AMD's liquid VR looks like great things are ahead for 3d / VR

     

    Nvidia Shield was well interesting but not as impressive as i was hoping.

    The Shield is a Movie, TV, music stream box a game console and just a general entertainment box all rolled into one, voice activated and runs on a Android based system so you can log into it with your gmail account if you like. 

    I would need to see more of this super computer cloud system for the games side of it before i decide if it is any good. 

     

    Can you get Nvidia mates rates ;)

    Wonder the planned support for DX12/Mantle is for Unity moving forward. 

     

    Though AMD is retracting Mantle now that MS has essentially done the same thing, I would love to know if Unity is moving towards Dx12 support.  UE4 already is.

    It's actually in the Development stages and I believe they are waiting on the release of Windows 10 to release it in a Unity patch.
