I have now tried Virtual Reality and it is amazing

The pool game sounds neat. There are some bar games for VR in Steam which are supposedly decent, but I haven't played to any extent.

But on the Pinball, there are a couple of things: Pinball FX is the latest version and all tables need to be purchased anew (bleah). But right now all tables are on sale, and any tables you already purchased for PFX3 gets you an additional 50% off the sale price. They actually had some select tables for VR under the Pinball FX2 VR name. It was pretty good, but was very limited in selection of tables. There were no commercial re-creations in VR. The regular PFX2 never had any VR support. But UEVR opens the entire new library to VR, and quite likely in a way which is better than the native VR support in PFX2 VR. I'll be checking it out when I find the time. Playing the Williams tables in VR should be a treat.

On a side note, I had some issues with PFX VR2 with the Mixed Reality headsets as well. What I found was that I had to look up while re-centering the output, in order to fool it into putting my head at the proper height. Not sure if that was your issue, but it's something to try if you run across that problem.

The bitcoin millionaire and the "sold 10,000 joysticks to NASA" guy are in here acting poor. ::)

Anyway, I couldn't get the Meta Quest 3S with the $100 gift card thing to go through so I'm out. Maybe next year. Black Friday week/month was kinda soft this year, to be honest. That's usually when I buy a stack of $10 video games, never open them, and eventually mail them to Malenko. Only thing I grabbed was Elden Ring and some rat in the first cave keeps raping me so that was probably a bad purchase.

:cheers:

Pfffft...I wish I had that kind of luck. Every day is a challenge at this point, just as with most every other person nowadays. Was asked very early on to accept bitcoin as payment for an order back when it wasn't worth the paper it was printed on and refused. I try not to think about it...too much.

Sorry to hear you missed out on the deal. Might be a blessing though. At least now you'll have the chance to possibly play with either or both of the units in-person somewhere, and get a better feel for what they offer. I don't think it will be the last time they are offered at those prices.

fallacy:
Getting close to 1.5 mil net worth but it is not from bitcoin it is from 10 years of S&P 500 ETF investing and only purchasing good deals and a paid off house. I did make 10k off of bitcoin but that was after 2 years of holding onto it less than what I paid for it and then sold it all earlier this year. If I kept it I could have made another 10k at this point but sometimes you need to just get in and get out with your profit.

fallacy:
Ow sht speaking of PC VR we finally got a contender. Behemoth dropped from the makers of Walking Dead saints and Sinners, which is one of my favorite VR game/world by the way. It looks gorgeous and the PC version looks better than the Quest version. Looks like there is cross buy so I can get the PC version on the meta store and the Quest 3 version at the same time.
