edit: also lol at this being a mono-engined jet and them just reusing a twin-jet control panel and putting a plate over one side

it was a one-off experimental plane so they must have put most of their resources into the mission-critical parts and then thrown together the rest with whatever was lying around the workshop

the one game i am always curious about for vr is skyrim. have you tried that?

skyrim vr is psvr-exclusive right now. visually it can be really astonishing, especially interiors which I wasn't expecting. cave rocks, vaulted ceilings, buttresses etc looming overhead. rooms full of npcs walking around and interacting all around you. it's the entire game content so that's like 20x the stuff to do of any other vr title right now. the motion controls let you draw bows, waggle melee weapons, and direct spells with your hands. somehow bethesda managed to get the whole thing running at a rock solid vr-ready framerate too

SO DEMANDING posted:

VR seems like most cyberpunk concepts: sounds/looks awesome in books/movies, but when actually implemented in reality is kinda lame at best and utterly impractical at worst

vr works but yeah you have to make a lot of room for it in your house and life. the people who think it will replace 2D gaming entirely are crazy

I'd imagine that "somehow" is running a 2011 video game at TV resolution in 2017

it's bethesda so this still took everyone by surprise

and yeah it looks like the PS3 original, except at 60fps 1080p (more really because of how a vr rendering pipeline works)

2012 is surprisingly watchable without headphones from the plane seat screen of a guy in the next row

2012 is good if you like watching john cusack ride a series of increasingly strange vehicles away from explosions
