All 3 are terrible gimmicks with no future?

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Seriously, once you try it, you'll be a believer. 100%. Any of you try it you'll be sold, unless you're one of those vomit people who get motion sick.

That'll be you when Amazon buys Xbox. Right?

If they do that's fine, I'm not into loving corporations or CEOs.

 

[Rapstah]

Christian was too busy teaching AJ Lee how to work a basic match to do his IC match on Main Event.

Sorry, getting my thread gimmicks mixed up.

 

[Data West]

Methinks there's some viral marketing going on in here.

'Once you try it, you'll be a believer,' sounds like some infomercial tagline.

I stand by my comments, trying it is a revelation, a true next-gen experience.

I get motion sick but I have a plan to combat this. The first game I play with it will be Mirror's Edge and anything else would be nothing compared to that. Shock therapy.

Christian was so offended that they supposedly inducted Razor Ramon into the Hall of Fame over two ladder matches and four IC title reigns, compared to Christian's own influential ladder matches and four IC title reigns, that he won't do TV matches until it's in his contract that Michael Cole mentions at least once per match that he's a future hall-of-famer.

The WWE should induct a Blue Dot into the Hall of Fame.
But not Christian.

Just a blue dot. They can make it into a cross-promotion with blue M&Ms.
Christian thinks he's going to get to give a speech but an M&M accepts in his place.

The only think Sunny is a viral marketer for is ICOPRO.

YOU'VE GOTTA WANT IT!

That reminds me I need to get that ICOPRO shirt from barbershopwindow.com

Oh man, playing Mirror's Edge with an OR seems like it'd be so cool. That's the first thing I need to do!

 

[Data West]

This is neat

Nah you gotta play a game that's actually good with it. Like uh...well the joke fell flat so...

 

[Sokantish]

I loved Mirror's Edge

I hate first person games so I never tried it, but I'd play it on the oculus rift

 

[British Monsoon]

Match of the year contender, for sure.

Didn't Scotty go bald?

I don't need to try VR goggles to know we're not going be looking at a big black rectangle in our living rooms for the rest of our lives. Be a little more forward-thinking and realize the groundwork is being laid for the future. "More pixels!" is not that future.

 

[Aiii]

You don't get to run, or jump, or do anything other than sit on your couch with projectors in front of your eyes.

How are you people so excited for this half done technology?
It is a step, but wake me when there's actual immergence.

 

[Data West]

I'm gonna shop Taz wearing the rift and taking off his jacket to reveal his Facebook vest

VR is something that we've been dreaming about for a long time, i see it as a symbol of the future and how far we've come

We don't have teleportation so self driving cars are bullshit!

You really have to try it. Being able to explore around and have the world in scale is worth it alone. Like, "Just like you're actually there" is a buzzword but in this case it's actually true.

Don't you DARE turn our most prized gif into a gaming gif!

 

[kurbaan]

The problem is, as someone in the main thread put it, it went from VR IS THE FOCUS to

oh we're another division of Facebook. Sellout pieces of shit.

Hahah while you spout this idiotic non sense they will be on their new shiny boats with $2 billion in the bank.

in the end the only focus is to get money. Not appease some irrelevant niche internet dudes.

 

[slightconfuse]

Rift seems like fun for horror games or an elder scrolls game

Remember how the early 90s were all about VR? But the tech back then was garbage.

That's the thing though, you can't touch, you can't feel, you can't smell. it's a gimmick that's quite cool, but ultimately adds little in the long run.

It's a step, but it's nowhere near good enough for mass adoption in the living room in my opinion.

Also self driving cars are shit and I'll keep driving my regular car until the end of days even if it kills me.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

What kind of monster would even want a self-driving car?

There's nothing more satisfying than cruising in your car, and listening to some tunes. Shit is dope.

 

[British Monsoon]

Ah, damn, Noam Dar's injured and won't be able to compete in the four-way for the title at PROGRESS on Sunday.

Instead, they're doing Jimmy Havoc (c) vs Party Marty vs Rampage Brown vs El Ligero and, as Ligero was set to face Tommy End, it's now Tommy vs Paul Robinson of the Swords of Essex. That should be a belter of a match, really looking forward to it. My first time front-row at a wrestling show, as well

Remember how the early 90s were all about VR? But the tech back then was garbage.

I remember they had a VR machine at the local ice skating rink when I was a kid, it was called Legend Quest and it was just about the worst piece of shit ever. Expensive, too.

 

[Sokantish]

There's NOTHING more satisfying? I dunno about that...

 

[QueenOfThorns]

Who would want to drive? It's the most boring mundane thing in the universe and I'll gladly dance on its grave. I welcome the self driving car future. I can just listen to music without worrying about stupid fucker drunk drivers because everyone in the world will be forced to use them. Embrace the future.

 

[FallingEdge]

Do it. That is brilliant.

 

[BIONIC-ARRRMMM!!]

Okay, watching Monday Night RAW live every week is a tiny bit more satisfying.

 

[Sokantish]

There we go!

 

[BronsonLee]

Got my free Sony Gold headset from that PS4 achievement contest earlier in the year...but they inscribed PSN IDs on them, and I got someone else's.

Cue me playing the world's smallest violin because who cares whoo free headset

PS suck it nerds WrassleGAF is really just my blog

You haven't even actually read about this, it seems. It's been on the front page of The Verge for two days: http://www.theverge.com/2014/3/24/5526694/virtual-reality-made-me-believe-i-was-someone-else

Until a faulty wire ends up sending your car full speed into on coming traffic or a wall. Or someone hacks them.

I've just come to the conclusion that Aiii is wrong about everything ever
He's also clearly an epic level racist too
WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU PEOPLE

Both of these happen to normal cars.

Someone could cut your brake wire now! DON'T EVER DRIVE. Someone could also be wrecklessly driving and hit you. Stay off the road!

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Give me self-driving cars too. Queen we're the outcasts here.

I find it crazy how the guy from the progressive country is such a luddite.

Indeed. While we are on opposite sides on the great Wrestlemania debate I will always admire your dedication and passion for the future.

You're in Indiana, that's a step up from the horse and buggy those Amish near you tried to force onto you.
