5 million Gear VRs sold is a major milestone for Facebook and Samsung, as is $3 million in sales for Job Simulator , a best-selling room-scale game. For example, you could easily halve a 4 meter x 4 meter room split into a pair of 2 meter x 2 meter spaces without moving the lighthouses. Vive Tracker Is Just The Beginning.
