Review: I have been enjoying lots of AltVR’s 360 video and image experiences over the years, but there is one thing that has always put off a lot of other people form enjoying them and that is the price. But now ‘Blueplanet VR’ brings you hundreds of 360 images, videos and experiences based on 40 environments found around the world. It is the best value in the series and that makes it probably the one that is the easiest to recommend. From the Antelope Canyon to Yosemite falls in California there is enough content here to keep you going for hours on end in some of the most photorealistic looking environments you will ever see. If you enjoy this type of experience or just want to show someone something cool this is the experience to buy.
