Cocktails with a side of virtual reality? That's the proposition at the Alto Bar inside Caesars Palace, where guests can take an Oculus Rift headset for a free 10-minute test drive after making any purchase at the bar.
Four games are available as part of the demo: a basketball three-point shooting challenge, a rock-climbing game, a role-playing experience and a virtual world build. The Touch controllers allow you to use your hands within the virtual environment, so that you can haul yourself up a desert spire or sink an incredible shot on the basketball court.
