Many things being talked about right now are already giving me the icky psychosis vibes that grew my trademark cynicism in the early 2020s VR pump.. when “VR was mainstream”
I love this tech, but am surprised how often we keep doing this to ourselves
It feels almost malicious

T-minus 2hrs until my first live @UploadVR Gamescast.
Speaking as someone who streamed for six years now, expect bumps in the road as @JamesAtCP & I adjust to a live format. Hope to see you there!

While we wait for the exact release date, just wanted to let y'all know that Zero Caliber 2 will support all the major PS VR2 features right from launch.
I know this stuff should pretty much be standard in 2026, but we keep getting questions about it, so yeah, there you go. :)

What he said
meta vr glasses are more xr glasses than a vr headset (counterintuitively named)
as a result, vr gamers being shocked by its FOV are completely missing the point.
the meta vr glasses are xr glasses that happen to run on Quest OS, with the added benefit of getting all those apps/games for free. You can also still plug it into your laptop and use it as xr glasses
XR glasses typically have a 40-50° FOV, which is completely usable to watch videos, play steam deck games, and do virtual computing.
meta vr glasses' 87° fov with a >1080p resolution is already a MASSIVE leap over all other xr glasses

This surprises me every time it happens.
Yesterday, Valve launched the highly anticipated Steam Frame.
We sold more Beyond 2’s yesterday than any other day this year.
Crazy! You’d think sales would drop, but the opposite keeps happening…We saw this when Apple Vision Pro launched too.
Rising tide floats all boats!

We have officially arrived to the week where not one, not two BUT three major JRPG releases arrive on the same day.
Sept. 17 will bring us:
-Trails in the Sky 2nd Chapter Remake
-Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave
-Another Eden Begins
Which one(s) will you be playing at release?
I'll be playing Trails and Fire Emblem, as I have to cover both for Nintendo Force and Level Up Legacy. 😅🫡
I plan to pick up Another Eden soon too!
