Glasses work with PSVR, but the smaller your glasses are the better. For me, I found it really annoying and got some disposable contacts to put in before putting on the headset. The camera will track around a typical living room, provided you are close enough to the camera. You do have to be around/within 8 feet of the camera. Yes, you can play any game and watch Netflix and stuff with the PSVR headset; it's kinda cool, but the PSVR resolution means it won't look quite as good. Still fun, though. I sometimes watch blu-rays on it to get a movie theatre-like experience. Also, 3D Blu-Rays are natively supported, so it's kinda like having a 3DTV.

Some games offer VR versions with a regular purchase, like Bound or Race the Sun. Others have dedicated VR versions available.

I have had a PSVR for a few months now, and have only run into one game I wanted to play that I needed the Move controllers for. Most do not require them, although some do, so check before buying. There is a lot you can play without Move controllers.

The PSVR does come with ear buds. They aren't great, but they are ok.

Since you are moving toward Xbox/Microsoft support exclusively, PSVR might not be a great choice for you. I suspect Microsoft will not be bringing VR support to Xbox, and will keep their focus on third-party VR on the PC.

Drew should be on the show regularly for sure. One just has to look at the trip to Norway to see that he brings a lot to the crew.

Bombcast was better before it got bought by EA and annualized with always-on DRM.

I think it all depends on how it plays out. If the guy's a big gamer and wants to talk games, and doesn't insert lots of Geico-related discussion into his posts, it seems fine to me. Honest, actually, since it clearly calls out his allegiance.

Patrick, great interview and read. Honestly, you're one of the best reporters I read regularly in the gaming media right now, keep up the good work!

Great news work as always, Patrick. You are a real asset to Giant Bomb, and I hope you continue to do this kind of effort. It can't be easy to try to do "hard news" in the games industry, as there's not a ton of it being done like this, but keep it up!

I would recommend the following:

Yar's Revenge (still fun after all these years!)

Warlords, if you have paddles and three friends. Still one of the best multiplayers out there, hard to believe but a fun party night game.

Enduro

Pitfall

Demon Attack - probably the best shooter for the 2600

Heck yeah! Sounds awesome. I love the Persona series, in large part because I think the characters are great.

I'm really looking forward to seeing the Mobile option for Giant Bomb!  I hope it's not iPhone only, though, as my smartphone is a Palm Pixi (which I love and don't care if it's not considered cool.)  Also, with Android seeming to be quite popular now I hope the mobile site is more across-the-board.
