  1. "hobo's"

    ok fine call me that, let's just look at the pros and cons first

    pros:
    1) CHEAP AS FUCK BOY
    2) a good demo for those who do want to buy a real professional VR set/kit
    3) CAN BE BUILD BY YOU 😀
    4) cheap VR PORN

    cons:
    1) depending on the emulator you are using for gaming IF at all it may be unstable, slow, or not compatible, because i am to much of a new tech hater. OH look you are still using galaxy s5 with kit-kat 4.4.2 ? well to bad our app is not compatible with your device 😀 FFFFFFFFFUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKK
    2) not practical
    3) no remotes or controllers NOT INCLUDING THAT SHIT MAGNET ON THE SIDE, and if you really wanna go full dirt mode some emulators turn the phone into a controller so 1 phone for the vr one for left hand one for right hand 3 FUCKING PHONES NO THANK YOU
    4) causes headache but that is the problem with all VR Devices

    now when you look at vr it is basically like going to an electric store putting your face on the largest TV and looking around you. VR is a one time experience you will play it today tomorrow maybe a few weeks but it's a thing that is just not ready yet NOT TO MENTION EXPENSIVE. also you can't sit in it too long because health risks. also VIRTUAL reality, you are basically putting on a mask that hides the real world and changes it for a fake one. now let's look at the Microsoft HoloLens
    it is not a Fake/Virtual reality. it's normal real reality with some extra info on the side. which is fine. it dose not present anything fake [THAT MEANS OBVIOUSLY IF YOU SEE IT DISPLAYING THE WEATHER ON YOUR WALL YES THAT INFO IS NOT THERE BUT IT IS BASED ON REAL INFORMATION FROM THE INTERNET… AGAIN IT IS NOT PHYSICALLY THERE BUT IT IS OTHERWISE TRUE] it just shows things the way they are with like i said extra info

    so let's look at what people buy VR

    1) gamer's
    2) normal people for porn
    3) normal people for entertainment

    PRO's AND CON's BREAK DOWN

    THE GAMER:[PSVR VIVE RIFT]

    pro's
    1) lot's of games that you can do things no other game can offer especially with full body tracking
    2) it's an experience
    3) VRCHAT [hey i had to throw that somewhere so there]
    4) you most likely have a good pc because there is no other reason to get vr only if you can afford it

    con's
    1) THE FUCKING PRICE like forget the headset the controllers and the body tracking on top of all that you need a good pc preferably with a dual GPU setup a good cpu lots of ram and in general A NASA UFO PC so MONEY MONEY MONEY $$$$$$$
    2) if we are talking about PSVR it can break very easily the head part dose not band, the headset cable is not detachable.
    3) you are wasting lot's of $$$ for a device that causes head pain and eye sore 😀 MY LIFE DREAM

    the porn guy: [samsung VR Gear and such]

    pro's
    1) THE SCREEN IS ON YOUR FACE NO ONE CAN SEE WHAT YOU ARE WATCHING 😀 FAP FAP FAP
    2) YOU ARE THE CAMERA GUY YOU CAN LOOK AT ANY PART YOU WANT
    3) IT'S FUCKING PORN IN VR BRO

    con's
    1) wasting money on a samsung VR just to watch porn [honestly only con i can find]

    the normal guy

    pro's
    1) YOUTUBE SNOOPAVISION [yes at the time we thought it was a joke but snoopavision is basically VR]
    2) youtube and other videos in VR
    3) cardboard games in VR
    4) sitting at home Facebook twitter Instagram snap-chat BUT IN FUCKING VR MATE

    con's
    1) FUCKING WASTING MONEY ON A SAMSUNG GEAR VR DEVICE.[nope just one con]

    as you can see most cons come from
    A) $$$
    B) EASY TO BREAK

    oh and want to know the best part ? let's say you got tired after 1 year and you never touch vr every again… GUESS WHO WASTED LOTS OF $$$ ON A PIECE OF SHIT ? so maybe google cardboard is not a bad device ITS NOT THE BEST but at least its CHEAP AS FUCK BOY

  2. Cardboard should be continued in todays hardware. I mean, the idea is awesome and it will only get better! Too bad Google doesnt improve the performance with every new generation of phone hardware… Google, wtf?

  3. The Asian Race will be anathematizing Norman Chan for failing to procure/possess important Asian racial stereotype(s). Chan's racial stereotype inadequacies were clearly evincing enough that the Asians will not even use him to trade up in 2018's Racial Draft, but will just releasing and denouncing him from the Asian Race.

  4. why is the fat ginger guy being such an asshole all the time? whats the need in throwing insults at that guy when he's trying to show us this? just shut up, you're not helping.

  5. I made my own mini VR Headset, kind of, and had so much fun last night on it watching videos, and then… welp, someone threw it away in the junk ;'(

  6. About 20% of this video is informative. The other 80% honestly makes me concerned as to how the man holding the camera functions in daily life without supervision.

  7. Hello VR enthusiasts! I recently got into virtual reality and I'm fascinated by the technology and history behind it. One of my university assignments requires me to create a blog, so I started the virtually impossible blog.
    If you want to know more about how VR works, how it all started, the different headsets out there and what the future holds for VR, then I think it will be worth your while.

    I would really appreciate it if you could have a quick read and I do hope you enjoy!
