It does appear though that a FE card will fit and pre-order opens tomorrow morning...

 

First SCCA race in iracing is tonight but I'm not sure I'm ready with no practice in the car beyond some messing around. The in game physics seems excellent to me.

Preorders go live at 11AM EST tomorrow morning on geforce.com.

As one of the fools who sits at the head of the Head-Case hand-me-down chain I am contractually obligated to purchase one. ^_^

Robo Recall on Oculus and Touch (Unreal Engine) is incredibly awesome.

The buzz out of GDC is that it is the best VR game yet.

It is frigging awesome. You can literally grab a robot, rip its arm off and beat it to death (recall it) with the arm.

 

Note if you don't want to rip your cable out of your goggles when diving to dodge bullets it's a good idea to have some cable management: adjustable dog leash for the win:

I almost wrecked my goggles....

Just saw the commercial for that game, looks pretty great.  Can I use my Xbox controller on the stupid computer to play this game?

The game plays just fine going 100% controller.

I think the rest of us are using mouse/keyboard for everything on foot and a controller for vehicles/aircraft.

I will some day tell my children about the convoy ambush at the great wall of cars.

There were three vehicles in the convoy: a lead car, the target, and a trail car. The lead car and trail car had mini-guns and were loaded with mercenaries. The convoy had a helicopter gunship as escort.

With lieutenant Grahame, we devised a battle plan. We would create a roadblock to slow the convoy, mine the road to take out the lead car, use grenade launchers on the helicopter and trail car, then finally secure the package.

What to use as a roadblock? Civilian cars, of course! And thus was constructed the great wall of cars!

With the road mined, we retreated to our over-watch position and executed the ambush. Lead car down to mines, helo down to gernades, trail car executed with gernades and assault rifle fire.

Brilliant!

Admiring our handiwork:

Finally, note to self, fasten seat-belt any time Grahame flys a helicopter because stuff like this happens:

Nice mine gets here Tuesday according to the tracking number

Brent requested that you take an extra long time shipping him your old 980ti. He said anytime in the next 6 months will do.
