Randy is following up the 'make a buffoon of yourself online game industry folks' trend pretty well.

though Randy being an ass is a little more known
 
Wow. The PSVR demo disc does not come in a cheap cardboard sleeve (as I expected), but rather has an actual normal PS4 box. That's more than was needed for that, but I really appreciate the effort.

Edit- Huh. Watching one from Europe shows their version of the demo disk is in a cheap cardboard sleeve. Glad I live in North America ;p
 
Started using 1080 wif Forza it seems. We in the future.

Time to annoy them about 4K video now!

Seeing the unboxing, the neatest part is the processor box. The plugs are hidden by a section you can slide back.

For a guy who used to bring giant pictures of his head and advertisements for his books to wrestling shows Dan sure seems to dislike wrestling fans who love being on camera.

After Wrestlemania 2015 Dan said on the Powerbombcast it would be his last time because how stupid it was.

Yeah. Pretty smart. I just wished the original PS4 had USB port in the back like PS4 Pro does. Cable management would be even nicer that way. Instead, I have to have the USB cord running from the back of the processing box to the front of my PS4. I do hope PS5 has the processing box integrated within the console.

No rear USB has always been a strange oversight. Designer of the PS4 once said the parallelogram design was to hide the plugs when looking at it from the front. There's a proprietary port for the camera in the back. You'd think it's easier to make the camera USB and put a 3.0 port on the back.

Well, yeah, but that would've still resulted in the same situation, as PSVR needs the camera to work and a USB cable from the processing box. At least they fixed that for PS4 Pro, but I'm skipping that and waiting for a true successor.

Resident Evil Remake being Remastered rant is pretty good too. It was also one of the first Bombcasts I listened to, so I remember it fondly

VR was always going to be a slow burn, the tech has a foothold now and it's going stick around.

It works, it's real, now the job is making it more friendly.
 
Current VR is just a stepping stone for crazy head mounted computers.

VR won't ever truly take off until it's wireless.


In 5 years shit is going to be crazy.
 
how do you know it already isn't

I still listen to the podcast but have not watched a video in a month. I missed out on their sale weeks ago, but still.

The nice thing, is that you can always subscribe back again later once premium content builds up again and be greeted with a bunch of videos to watch.
