[Myggen]

Those car engines souund like my electric lawnmower.

Yeah, the sound on this thing is awful.

 

[Spookie]

So after nearly an entire work day of them goofing on the Vive, are they still digging it? This morning when they started the excitement was infectious and they clearly were all having a great time.

How has it been since? Starting to dip into Oculus feelings as the mounds of minigames pile on? Or still beaming with the use of touch and room positioning?

Jeff is positively beaming compared to his reaction to the Oculus where he was super tepid. I think it comes down to games nailing room VR and being genuinely good games in general.

Looks like Hover Junkers, Budget Cuts and Will are the highlights so far?

All the Valve Lab stuff too. The personality spheres calibration system was god tier.

There have still been some gems. Jeff seems to love Budget Cuts.

 

[oti]

Already forgot this game existed and it's still running on the stream.

 

[jaina]

Can i ask for a link to watch the archived stream from the beginning, while the show is still running? Thank you!

Open the stream on either giantbomb.com/chat or youtube and click at the beginning of the seek bar to rewind.
Actual archive videos will still take 1-2 days to appear.

 

[theSlacker]

''Wooooooo''

Oh god, can't unhear.

 

[Felix Lighter]

Did I hear HOTAS Support?

 

[Death Metalist]

Looks like Hover Junkers, Budget Cuts and Will are the highlights so far?

The games they started out with are great too, The Gallery, Surgeon Simulator VR, Fantastic Contraption & Modbox so far apart from what you stated.

 

[KingSnake]

Looks like Hover Junkers, Budget Cuts and Will are the highlights so far?

And Job Simulator with its funny camera.

Guess I'll need to get Modbox as well. Throwing stuff into the cart as we speak.

And Job Simulator with its funny camera.

Missed that part of the stream

All the Valve Lab stuff too. The personality spheres calibration system was god tier.

Missed that too (and glad I did). Trying to keep spoilers as minimal as possible

 

[tamaster92]

My god the taking the headset off was incredible.

Some actual great games so far, really making me wish this stuff was more accessible.

The RC car game thing just makes me want motorstorm rc in VR

 

[Falifax]

[oti]

I wonder if we'll get a Hearthstone with Yu-Gi-Oh animations.

Spoiler

We won't.

 

[Brinbe]

Tipp?

 

[Goodacre0081]

just started watching the stream. is this any better than Oculus so far ?

 

[Death Metalist]

And Job Simulator with its funny camera.

This one too. There's Bowslinger that used camera manipulation as well.

 

[RomanticHeroX]

Good job! Looks like you've found some weapons!

 

[Ullus]

Plane need to go at least double the speed.

 

[Kerned]

just started watching the stream. is this any better than Oculus so far ?

Seems like it to me.

 

[Salty Catfish]

Tipp sounds like a waiter networking website waiting to happen.

 

[oti]

Looks cute but way too slow.

 

[KingSnake]

This music is annoying.

 

[Spookie]

It looks like shit, sounds like shit, plays like shit... Not sure we need 15 minutes of it. I understand the controllers are charging but there must be something else to demo.

 

[maquiladora]

Tipp sounds like a waiter networking website waiting to happen.

Tippr

 

[kAmui-]

This music is annoying.

A lot of these games could use some improvements in the audio department (among other things)

 

[jaaz]

This game is horrible. I would have quit out of it within the first 5 minutes.

 

[Fitts]

Just jumped into the stream. Anything I missed that I should go back and watch?

 

[Salty Catfish]

Just jumped into the stream. Anything I missed that I should go back and watch?

Off the top of my head: Job Simulator, The Gallery, Hover Junkers, Budget Cuts, the Will Smith segment.

Jeff was pretty tepid on this stuff too - I mean, he said he wouldn't recommend it.

 

[oti]

This music killed VR.

 

[Zepp Twofist]

Just jumped into the stream. Anything I missed that I should go back and watch?

Pretty much everything they have tried has been better than this.

 

[Ullus]

Matrick Stewart doing a great narrator voice

 

[viveks86]

"Can we play something else?"

Chorus: "YES"

 

[Fitts]

Off the top of my head: Job Simulator, The Gallery, Hover Junkers, Budget Cuts, the Will Smith segment.

Thanks...

...and whaaaat?

 

[Myggen]

This music killed VR.

Seriously, I have no idea how that short loop was so fucking grating.

 

[Salty Catfish]

Thanks...

...and whaaaat?

Of the Tested, not jiggy, variety.

 

[ratcliffja]

Jeff was pretty tepid on this stuff too - I mean, he said he wouldn't recommend it.

That seems to mostly be based on the steep requirements for this in terms of price and space. Despite the fact that there are very promising games for this, it's hard to recommend that kind of investment for the average person.

 

[Fitts]

Of the Tested, not jiggy, variety.

Thanks for the clarification. Never heard of this person until now.

Spoiler

I'm a shitty nerd.

 

[KingSnake]

Showing the hands all the time in the games that use a controller should be a thing to avoid.

 

[Myggen]

Spoiler

It`s the segment where they`re in the Firewatch tower if you were wondering!

 

[oti]

Not for a Mirror's Edge clone though.

 

[Brinbe]

I was gona say this is a janky ass mirror's edge

 

[Ullus]

Even the soundtrack is going for that Solar Fields style.

 

[kAmui-]

This doesn't look good, but for 10 dollars I'd could see myself getting this if I had a Vive.

 

[radjago]

I'm getting kind of a Crackdown vibe.

 

[oti]

Jeff is a g-g-g-ghost!

 

[Kinsei]

Not for a Mirror's Edge clone though.

For a VR game they should still avoid it. It would be an immediate disconnect.

 

[Sou Da]

This is NOT Mirrors Edge a VR Parody

 

[giant_frying_pan]

I'm not ready for Mirror's Edge VR.

 

[robotrock]

Descent in VR must be crazy
