Introduction
Sequels and remasters dominated this year's E3. From the new Zelda's interactive open world to Bethesda's stunning Skyrim remaster, a Frostbite 3-driven Fifa 17 and Konami's Silent Hills-inspired Resident Evil 7, the expo had plenty to like for fans of existing franchises.
- Check out everything that happened at E3 2016
1. VR fun without the headache
Turtle Beach's virtual reality-focused Stealth 350VR looks to end the discomfort that comes with squeezing a virtual reality headset and a bulky pair of headphones onto your cranium. Its maker reckons you'll squeeze 30 hours or more out of this long-lasting pair of cans.
2. Aiming for maximum immersion
Yes, it has a pink ball stuck on the end of it, but Sony's new VR Aim Controller still looks all kinds of awesome. This new gun-shaped peripheral has a whiff of PS Move about it, but thankfully its guts are stuffed inside its body to more closely resemble Sony's PS3 Sharp Shooter accessory.
3. A mouse for MOBA players
MOBA (or multiplayer-only battle arena) games pretty much demand unique peripherals, such as a mouse with the same number of buttons as spells you can cast. Razer's revamped Naga Hex V2 features seven buttons on the left-hand side arranged in a circle that can be used for firing off commands at the twitch of a thumb.
5. You spin me right round...
We've already seen VR backpacks from the likes of HP and MSI, and now Alienware is getting in on the game. Unfortunately the company's VR backpack concept won't be hitting stores any time soon, but it's still interesting to see Alienware's take on the peripheral.
6. Another wristy accessory
If you didn't manage to get yourself a real-life Pip Boy wearable last year, don't worry as a new and improved one has surfaced at E3. Called the Pip-Boy Deluxe Bluetooth Edition, this year's edition of Fallout 4's wrist-worn computer pairs with your Bluetooth tablet or phone to provide smartphone-like functionality, allowing you to take and make calls on the go.
