Wouldn't be a GB stream without a 15 minute delay!

 

[Jamie OD]

One step closer to the VR Troopers life we all deserve.

My title was chosen! Where my free PSVR at?

 

[DerZuhälter]

Always making fun of Sony's pressers starting late, yet never on time themselves.

 

[Teddified]

YAY!

 

[jediyoshi]

Given Jeff's growing discontent with traditional controller based VR games, I'm guessing the consensus will be a plus for amount of fleshed out games, negative for the lack of roomscale.

The lack of delay is insane, it runs really well, it has gameification stuff, it looks real nice, there will likely be less people chatting than other places.

People don't actually care about how well it runs. Note how long everyone complained that twitch didn't use an html5 player, it eventually rolled out wide and didn't make a blip on anyone's radar. This was ahead of the Twitch Prime announcement. Youtube Gaming's existence is entirely indicative of how irrelevant the feature set of a streaming service is if you're not managing to pull in streamers or events people care to watch.

[Tagyhag]

Wow this Beam site is so far ahead lol.

 

[Zaph]

Beam significantly ahead and better IQ than YT https://beam.pro/giantbomb

 

[EnlightenedMint]

PSVR has a great looking headset

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

We're off to a great start.

 

[robotrock]

For 5am these guys are at the top of their game

 

[repeater]

Bring on the GIFs

 

[VeryGooster]

Wow this Beam site is so far ahead lol.

Never heard of that site until Jeff tweeted the link.

How long is the stream anticipated to be?

 

[Jintor]

this is a really good overlay for jeff with the added advantage he almost completely blocks dan from view! (jks)

 

[MassiveNights]

Never heard of that site until Jeff tweeted the link.

The others were around 10 hours

 

[daveo42]

Glasses are completely fine with the PSVR, at least based on my experience with one at one of the Best Buy demo stations.

[mnz]

So who's going to buy Beam in the next 2 years? Microsoft, Yahoo?

Too late my friend

[robotrock]

Jeff flickering in and out is amazing

Why on earth does a third of the box slide like that?

I don't know but it's super cool

 

[Dizzy-4U]

Oh, "The Bob"!

 

[JaggedSac]

Good lord at the cables.

 

[strafer]

Wont be able to watch this live.

 

[daveo42]

That is definitely a ton of cables. At least the headset looks great.

I think Jason is drunk or half-sleeping in the control booth.

How would you ever do VR wirelessly?

Edit: I mean proper VR, not the phone stuff.

We'll get there, it will take a few years.

 

[Jintor]

fucked if i know

but 5 years ago I couldn't imagine the mad shit tech could get up to, so I don't presume to say it's impossible!

 

[Dizzy-4U]

XP bar and lightning credits are going up as I watch this on Beam. No wonder Jeff likes it.

 

[robotrock]

Damn the tracking was my biggest concern

 

[daveo42]

That tracking stuff sounds real bad.

 

[MassiveNights]

Tracking stuff seems like a bummer

 

[Hasney]

Fuck, tracking is a nightmare... This might be the dealbreaker.

 

[oti]

The Beam stream looks amazing!

 

[Sleeping Lesson]

These tracking issues were exactly my concern with PSVR. Bootstrapping non-VR hardware (camera and Move controllers) sounded questionable from the get-go.

 

[Roxas]

Wow, already trashing the system and we havent seen any software yet :/

 

[petethepanda]

Wooooof.

 

[Jintor]

for the love of god load up something so i can go to sleep

 

[Owensboro]

Uh oh on the tracking

 

[Visualante2]

Drew's sock game is incredible. Tracking concerns is a real worry.

Too late my friend

Nailed it!

 

[robotrock]

Sony whyyyyyyyyyyy

 

[sammyCYBORG]

Why do these jaded guys hate Sony?

 

[Smidget]

I had no issues with tracking in the 15-20 min demo at GameStop but you do have that backdrop. I wonder if playing in mostly the dark will help? I'm not sure. That's disappointing if I get the same results :/

 

[Death Metalist]

Man, the movement thing is a real shame.

 

[oti]

Sony whyyyyyyyyyyy

Selling trash Move controllers for 90€ that's why.
