'If you think about the big grand visions of 5, 10 years from now, why shouldn't you be able to feel like your EVEВ ship is flying through space and your ValkyrieВ pilots come shooting out of the sides like the Vipers in Battlestar Galactica? Though Valkyrieis penned in for a prospective 2014 release, its merger with the rest of the EVEВ universe will take a lot longer, and likely require one-or-two technological bumps along the way. Sadly, Reid doesn't see this development occurring any time soon.

From we will absolutely connect EVE ValkyrieВ with the rest of the EVEВ universe. 'It's going to be a lot more initially about nailing the moment-to-moment experience and making something awesome, and then building a game around it. Speaking to Digital Spy, CCP's chief managing officer David ReidВ discussed the title's ever-expanding scope, as well as the need to start small. Now it's the turn of the space-shooter genre, with the news that Oculus Rift's exciting tech-demo turned full-on game EVE Valkyrie will also be merging with the wider EVE Online universe, but not at first.

Starting with Dust 514, an underwhelming free-to-play FPS title released for the PS3 earlier this year, EVE's intergalactic empire took its first formative steps towards mega-property status. CCP studios certainly can, and they're developing the EVE OnlineВ experience to match this multi-faceted vision. Imagine a top-selling shooter, merged with a triple-A racing title, backed by a world class RTS, or any other genre for that matter. Fortunately there's one, unusual upside to this whole situation: when a company chooses to mix and match genres, characters and locales, it can.

Whether it's Microsoft manhandling Rare, Electronic Arts buying and disassembling Westwood Studios or Activision retaining the rights to Crash Bandicoot, the history of video gaming is full of misused, or worse yet, unused licence libraries. Still, with daily challenges to keep you coming back regularly and the sheer thrill of being able to live out your Last Starfighter fantasies 'in person', this proves a very strong argument for VR gaming.Of all the negatives commonly associated with giant-sized gaming corporations, it's their intellectual property monopolies that cut the most deep. Its mandatory training missions are wise for anyone who's never played a 3D shooter before, let alone a VR one, but it takes too long before it allows you freedom to conduct even small changes, like invert the axes. The main drawback though is that Valkyrie holds your hand a bit too much early on. Sadly, there are only five maps at present though, something that we'll hopefully see expanded in future.

Visually, EVE Valkyrie is stunning, despite the PSVR being slightly lower performing than its PC peers. 'Once you're used to the controls, you'll be zooming and banking around like Luke Skywalker.'

The main control benefit of PSVR is that looking at enemies allows you to lock missiles on with a glance, though getting the timing and distance right can be tricky. You'll need to get used to this combo pretty fast, as learning to look one way while flying another is necessary for your survival, especially when you're playing against other humans rather than AI.

The DualShock 4 is used for vehicle movement, like any conventional shooter, while the PSVR provides you with a wider field of view. Unfortunately, the controls do take some getting used to. Once you're used to the controls, you'll be zooming and banking around like Luke Skywalker, taking out enemies with abandon.

They're nimble craft, as you'd hope, typically armed with gatling cannons and missiles though mods and upgrades and improve their performance in all areas. There are plenty of ships to unlock, each with their own perks and vulnerabilities, but they all essentially offer the same controls.
