What if one day instead of going to classes and having to miss VR streams, you'll stream your classes in VR?
Essay writing and watching is slightly less dangerous ...
Might be the mouth harp. I have a friend who has one of those.

.....that's a good idea.
Well I'll be graduating in a month so that's probably well after my time.
Thanks!

Oh no, they don't know that you need to redeem a code to get Elite on the Oculus Store! I was looking forward to Drew playing today!

I grew up (in the country) calling it a jew's harp, realizing later how offensive that is. only to then find out that that may be it's actual name? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jew's_harp
but yeah that's what it was

You could try tweeting Dan or messaging him on GB Chat to let him know

I'm totally going to. It's one of the best VR experiences and it would be a shame if they didn't play it today!

Dont they already own elite

They have it on Steam, but there's a Oculus Store code on the Frontier site they'll need to redeem for the VR version.
My god they thing 30 fps is sufficient for VR. This is going to be a long day for me.

You need to buy the vr version separately? Wat
Sleeping Lesson

No, they give you a free code for the game on the Oculus Store if you own it anywhere else. This is because you can only use OculusSDK on the Oculus Store. The Steam version will work in VR with SteamVR, but that's not "native" support.

Random thought, I wonder if most games will stick to just rendering legs when you look down, or if they'll make it so you can see your torso too. It'd be really cool in a fantasy game to be able to look down and see your new armor on your torso too instead of just legs.

Thats one way to kill your product before its out. Separate storefront? Garbage!
I had heard of the jew's harp name, but I never knew there was so much history to it. What a weird thing.
Also, weirdly enough, outside of that Golem video GB recently did, I think this is the first time I've ever seen a VR headset used with a VR made game. The only other footage I saw of the oculus was the HL2 thing and that rollercoaster demo being shown to grandmothers.

Yeeeah it has been a point of contention in the VR community. Exclusives on PC is such a bummer.
Nope.

Oh hell no. Some places maybe get Good Friday off.
Weird time to ask this, but has Drew ever detailed how he has a standing desk set up? I know he likes to do the standing deal now, and I'm looking into building my own desk soon. I'd like to have an adjustable option so I can still sit down if I need to.

does europe take almost a week off for jesus time?
yeah I'm not sure what I was expecting to happen but it wasn't this
Schools are closed for two weeks. Supermarkets and stuff are closed Good Friday, Sunday and Monday. In some states there's a dancing ban on Good Friday.
We take a month off to play soccer, sing crappy pop songs and kill a few rich people to give their money to slackers
USA not getting at least Friday and Monday off for such a big Christian holiday sounds like communism to me
Anything to keep the common man down, man!

Looks like I'll have lots to catch up on after work
You weren't expecting them to play VR games during the VR live stream?
well to be honest I was expecting something to go hilariously wrong or for Dan to throw up live on air, but at the very least something interesting and not the most boring demos in the world
The first initial wave of pre-orders ship today for the Oculus Rift, for those who were quick enough to pre-order the first wave.
