Day Fifteen With The Oculus Rift - Manhacks

Since FRAPS seemed to work pretty well yesterday recording some Doom 3 BFG footage, I decided today I'd record some gameplay from Half-Life 2.

I've not get too far in to the game just yet, only been playing in short bursts but during this 12 minutes I recorded I came up against the first few rounds of Manhacks.



The Manhacks look awesome in the Rift! Seeing them fly up to your face gives you a real sense of depth, especially when they're attacking you in the tunnels. Even looking around at some of the pieces of wood and crates look pretty cool in Half-Life 2 with the Rift.



So, this'll be a short update, you can download the source mp4 containing 12 minutes of gameplay from Half-Life 2 using the Oculus Rift below:

Half-Life 2 - 1280x800x60.mp4

The video was recorded at 60fps with FRAPS, same as I used with Doom 3 but I had a couple of issues where it just started totally lagging out. I recorded a video before this one which messed up and then towards the end of this one it lagged out again so 12 minutes was all I got.

As before, the video is available on YouTube too but please note it may not quite be as good since it'll downsample to 1280x720 and convert it to 30fps:
