History of Virtual Reality - Reality Check

[@babydollface]

Loving the 60 fps, Cam. You've never looked more smooth!

[@puente512]

Have to agree the Cam video looks great.

[@peabnuts123]

What ever happened to part 2?

[@zeliph]

They forgot

[@JcGross93]

What glorious 60FPS video this is!

[@000Chimple000]

60 FPS is fantastic in this video. It adds so much more realism.

[@TheThorns]

Lets see what milestones did you miss: vfx1, victormax stunt master, released at 90's VR peak virtual i/o, scuba, released on decline Also never mentioned jonathan walden, creator of the 1st commercial VR company Then there is virtual reality therapy Hollywood hype like, virtuosity, lawnmower man and johnny mnemonic

[@dethswurl117]

In my opinion Gamespot is the best informative gaming channel. All their videos have such quality in them, damn.

[@jacarorosity]

I won't be happy until we have full dive gear, sao style! Without the dieing of course.

[@kwylwa8850]

Same here!

[@lordilluminati5836]

Jacaro yeanh, not happening, you see, the machine killed you becouse it sent microwaves into your head, the book however says that the device works with microwaves all the time and if you gamed continuosly for some time, your head would explode. something like that would never be legal

[@jacarorosity]

patricio torre who said REAL LIFE would be the same as some ANIME. Stop trying to impress me with your apparently superior weabo knowledge , and no im not reading manga. Aint' nobody got time for that.

[@lordilluminati5836]

1)you said it 2)reading a book does not make me a weeaboo (having a dbz profile pic, however, does) 3)reading manga is less time-consuming than watching anime (average time to read dragon ball manga vs watching dragonball+dragon ball z)

[@justrollin3726]

Here from 2019 to tell you we are very close to this now because of Elon musk

[@acelakid94]

Where is this part 2?

[@Quackenson]

We’ve made it bois

[@AlexiGVS]

When the part two will come out? Two month have passed.

[@Permafry42108]

Hooray for 60fps video!

[@BartoszDebski]

What about those 3D helmets from 90's for PC ? There were commercial products yet not mention here.

[@LazarheaD]

Man, 60FPS is awesome.

[@perafilozof]

Omg, the 60 frames are so telling when Cam movies his head around. The future is here! BTW Great Idea for a series, keep it up!

[@Ratmut_]

Yay! More 60fps!

[@pablitar]

Silky smooth 60 fps. Love it.

[@StudioSambodia]

I tried something like the Sensorama at the 2009 NY comic con, where you went inside a booth and wore some 3d binocular looking device that allowed you to watch a movie in 4D with the typical 4D movies effects, i.e: water, wind, bibration and such.

[@batesjernigan1773]

Great video! Really Helped me with my school project on VR and its effect on society

[@meltybagle]

Nice video. Visual quality of the VR headset looks very good nowadays, also rather affordable(good quality-price ratio), too. The issue is the controller and the software didn't catch up, if you want to convert fingers you will need to pay, otherwise your fingers will only work like 30-45 degrees on the front with the headset-camera emulations, since you can't see your hands, there's no such concept as 'virtual-tracked-gadgets' which headset tracks your real-life hardwares(mouse/keyboard/audio headset/chair/table), which is bad on the AR aspect and ruin your room setups. For the walk/run you can use treadmill solution so I guess that's fine(Actually, if you don't get the solution you will easily get to the motion sickness if you just stand or sit, many games just let you teleport or something, which is not immersive again, there's software solution efforts on it, though.). Anyway, it's not quite immersive, plus there's no feedback on touching stuffs unless you get haptic solutions, device have no weights since you were actually holding your controller(you can tight controller onto the objects to try to emulate it, but there's no standard, so every games/software require different setups, which is rather inconvenience), plus you will need much DIY hardware/software to bind all these up currently, too many efforts to any market. This is surely going to change on recent years, though. (you can run VR with okay PC easily right now btw, unless you want to run something very crazy) The real issue is the software, big companies don't seems want to full-in to the market yet, so the market is almost like indie only market, which is exactly not like the PC indie otherwise I won't mention it like this, many companies don't have experience on the game market and made many weird mess that's out-of-the-market for somehow. So the thing still have few years to be stable, but it surely is near(easiest setup cost like $200-$500 btw). The recent 'fruit vision' is interesting, but $3500-3900? You can solve all the hardware issues I mentioned above with this money and still have plenty left! Too much attentions made it easily to misleading the people that it still being unaffordable(well, the other VR hardware companies also not putting enough efforts anyway), it did bring some interesting new hardware/software standards/solutions to the market though, which is nice. Funny stuff is the 'adult' market is leading the addon-hardware/software right now, like when it weren't I guess. lol

[@Hayatofal]

I'm digging the 60fps :)

[@paramesh95]

concept of VR has been there for a while but it started showing itself in 2015/2016

[@davidflores909]

6:46 I was able to see it in 3D, I just watched each image with a different eye :P

[@shrek6402]

I got my Oculus DK2 four days ago, (after a four month wait) and I think it is pretty dang shrektastic. I haven't ran into an ogreload of problems, and some of the games I've tested are just layers of beauty. DK2 quality is pretty shreksy. After seeing a game as beautiful as 'Senza Peso' on the DK2, I'm betting my swamp that the CV1 will rek.

[@LucasJodokast]

ogres dont have happy ever afters onion boy

[@CrashBashL]

So you gonna end the year with part 3 Gamespot ?!?! I might be dead till then !!!!!!!!!!!!

[@mattmccoy7384]

Anybody else with 60fps??? This looks great!

[@_gamma.]

Cam, you're in 60 fps :O It's so much smoother!

[@Ice2Phoenix]

Loving the new 60fps

[@OdiumAeternum]

Do a reality check about Sword art online :3

[@kwylwa8850]

OMG YASSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!

[@ForeverDoubting]

WE NEED MORE REALITY CHECK GOD DAMMIT I SMILE EVERYTIME I HEAR THAT TUNE But seriously this stuff is awesome give us more pls :D

[@severedghost]

VR + Play station move = attack on Titan/shingeki no kyojin game

[@j4u3s2t1i0n]

60fps finally after it already being on gamespot's video player for half a year.

[@CoIinusmaximus]

I'm so much looking forward to playing with VR!

[@WhartWhart]

60 fps on KZbin is just so brilliant.

[@Janokins]

What about those gadgets used in the twenties, which was a couple of pictures in a box that you put your face in?

[@cfrend]

You missed CAVE vr systems. Sure they were big and expensive, but did you know Quake was ported to work in a CAVE?

[@573WTF]

OK, the VR is more than the Visual feeling of reality. I think it you should also mention Omi direct tred mills (Virtuix Omni & Cyberith Virtulizer [Yes ok, you see it in the beginning, but i would be happy if u mentioned it]) and Body movement detection devices (Kinect & PrioVR). All in all, nice Video :D

[@DaniSmith_95]

They need to do an update

[@johnjohnson201]

That sensorama sounds pretty dope tbh

[@JoeGP]

When the final prototype of the Oculus comes out it will be good enough for any VR, the only problem currently is the lack of VR content and while porn and games on a real 3D 4k screen would be beyond awesome i would probably use it even to watch normal stuff, beats holding a phone or tablet in your hand for sure.

[@AlexMartire]

Cam Robinson, the Ultimate Display was the name that Sutherland gave to the HMD? Reading his paper, I thought Ultimate Display was only an ideal virtual reality device, matching exactly with the concept of "holodeck" from the Star Trek series. Amazing video, by the way! Regards :)

[@oatmil3447]

0.o ow so nice reality check has never been looking so good as before

[@slipfoot1]

Love the 60 fps

[@puente512]

Great informative video!

[@NE0TIMELESS]

Thanks for sharing this great video :)

[@cybercoltz9054]

pretty soon, everyone will have a VR goggle in 2018

[@JamesKellyWickerman123]

You failed to mention the depression causing aspect of the virtual boy. It lead to many cases of anxiety and depression - or so I read.

[@AdrianHereToHelp]

You should definately mention NerveGear from Sword Art Online as a sort of "future of vr"

[@andrewtworow6300]

really helpful Thanks

[@andy897221]

OMG 60 FPS CAM IS SO SMOOTH

[@trevorrowe4726]

enjoyed the video but the sword of Damocles is AR not VR. though it was the first HMD so i guess its still relevant.

[@EpiKerCovers]

60fps on these kind of videos is too weird.

[@jbtallguy]

Does it work on mobile?

[@EpiKerCovers]

WASHINGTONgiant on Xbox live Nope.

[@hokiepokie]

Everything becomes more realistic. It's more like he's actually talking to you and less like a playback video.

[@TimeLordVictrix]

***** to be honest with you, if someone told me it was 30fps i'd believe them. i just don't see the difference.

[@TheErlend87]

AtimeLord01 Do you use Crome+ If not, thats your problem.

[@jasonwolden4421]

I remember the virtual boy. It was so much fun. Would make your neck hurt but was still a lot of fun

[@xAlexDarkx]

Part 2?

[@chancethompson8752]

you showed also have a vid of possible down-side of VR in the main world like sword art online is a good example even many tv shows.

[@cupemptyjonas]

Thank you for the generous free fast track research. Can you fix the link for the Bibbio?

[@ezragreiner8065]

Who’s here in 2020 thinking about the htc vive and the quest?!

[@supervegito2277]

The virtual boys nausea... Well Nintendo did fix that a while later with the 3ds line. Id still recommend a 3ds xl or one of the N3ds models to avoid your comfort zone being outside the 3d target zone... the N3ds apparently has the same benefits as IPS (VS TN) panels that it has a larger reach.

[@joshcropper8697]

60 fps youtube... Am I dreaming?

[@JdotCarver]

Cam, you look so real in 60 fps!

[@OsbornIOW]

My lad bought one. Had it for 2 years . Hardly used it and sold it on.

[@LuCordella]

Thank you so much for this really interesting video! Could someone tell me why the Sensorama had been a flop? Why it wasn't utilized that much? Do you have any documentation about that?

[@segoverial]

just got me Oculus Rift DK2 today, motionsick as fuck

[@minoxs]

oh man... dat smoothenes :D

[@anonymouschicago6142]

Great channel 👍🙂

[@leehyatt76]

Wasn't Atari developing a VR headset for the Jaguar as well?

[@d5rickOshay]

AR will be the future, glasses that mold real world into a virtual reality.

[@Creamagination]

Goddamnn 60Fps is so much better.

[@AmericaTheEnslaved]

what about atari trying to make a vr headset for the atari jagaur? it was showcased at the first e3.

[@silasmayes7954]

Loved it

[@TheDecree93]

cant wait

[@dermarv9630]

Why is everybody thinking this is a HMD for virtual reality? In my opinion the sword of Damucles has more to do with augmented reality because an object is projected in our reality.

[@frankavanbruchem4256]

@gamespot I cannot find the resourcelist. Does it still exist?

[@jackymyboy]

wow just realized what 60 fps do to video...nice...

[@arindika1]

I like how hes fit and also a total computer geek

[@SmallWorldBigThings]

From VR history I know/remember only VFX1 helmet... why it was not mentioned?

[@OpeningSalvo]

We have to wait A FEW WEEKS for part 2??? Fuck Game Spot :P

[@GabrielLesser]

I'll be the pioneer for VR. VR is the future.

[@MrBratkenSolov]

I think that gamedevs started from wrong side. Sorry for bad english. I want to say that they integrated only compatibility with VR glasses into their games but you still play with keyboard+mouse or gamepad. But i want to interact with every object of the gameworld. Like to take a brick and beat with it a zombie in Dying Light for example, stick my fingers into its eyes, take a stone and throw it into a window so it would break. I know that VR is about immersion, but games are about interaction at first place, then immersion.

[@yugij0319]

The fall of VR in the 90's makes me think of the "Death" of video games way back when. (Can't remember the year.) Video games were revived by Nintendo, but at the same time, Nintendo killed VR for a bit... Well at least they revived video games!

[@yugij0319]

Yes, there was a huge crash in video game sales in the USA, and some people of the time considered them to be "Dead". Nintendo was wanting to sell video games over here, but they new that they had to make video game appealing again, since there was no longer an appeal. So they completely redesigned their NES system for the US release, to look more like a VHS player, and not a video game console. And when they sold the NES over here, it completely revitalized the industry. So without Nintendo, the video game industry, at least in the US, might of actually died.

[@vision4860]

C'mon VR hurry up! I wanna play Sword Art Online, Alfheim Online, and GunGale Online... without being able to actually die from it of course.

[@TrueInvisible]

are we gonna eventually hear you say the famous word? " Nervegear" ? answer me Cam please!

[@alexanderrucker7861]

I like that shirt. Where'd you get it?

[@ruxandragp]

the term 'virtual reality' was coined by Lanier who?

[@andrewdotcom6770]

“Are there any other two words that make you so excited” CRACK COCAIN

[@oetgaol]

aren't the first VR systems the stereoscopes? They are simulating a 3D environment with two photo's and have been around since the 19th century. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoscope

[@rubrsoul1672]

but they don't have tracking. they are just pictures. That's not VR. That's just 3d

[@emikochan13]

Tnetnba - That's a nice tnetnba you have there.

[@TheFutureTesla]

For those that say you can't tell the difference between 30fps and 60fps tell me that you can't after watching this video it is super obvious

[@perafilozof]

O man... THAT difference! And to think people droned about how 30 is all we need! I would so lol in their faces right now

[@spetsnazbeaver]

Is it just me or is this video 60 fps, seems smoother than usual

[@vrictor]

Hi im from 2020 (the future) yust wanted to say that now we have all in one vr with tho x,y,z controllers that are your hands

[@usharani-ly9fk]

Can u say what is the difference between the VR in past and future (it mean compress and Contreras)

[@cybercoltz9054]

the technology is getting very cheap and accessible to mainstream consumers. Its not just for gaming anymore.

[@haiUnderground]

Im only here because PSN is down

[@MRguywithlazereyes]

Is that way there is no new PS Plus free games?

[@termulus5380]

Ivan Hernandez What?

[@MRguywithlazereyes]

Hund Hub It's November isn't? Shouldn't there be new PS Plus games available by now? I don't seem 'em anywhere.

[@tanner1ie]

Ivan Hernandez The new PS Plus stuff, won't be out 'til Wednesday here in Europe and Tuesday in the U.S. - it's always Download Wednesday*/Tuesday, each week, when standard new stuff comes out on the PSN and on the first Wednesday/Tuesday of the month when new PS Plus stuff comes out - so you've two or three days to wait for the new stuff - not *too* long :) . (*I always call it Download Wednesday when the PSN store updates - maybe i should start calling the first Wednesday of the month, Super Download Wednesday :) .)

[@MRguywithlazereyes]

tanner1ie Thank you! I was wondering why wasn't it on the store!.

[@huyssoon3417]

What is the music you play at the end of the video

[@sheogorath2020]

Actually, there is something that should be mentioned. 2 words: Epoc Emotiv.

[@odinstemple1832]

part 2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PLSSSSSSSSS

[@put4558350]

you forget ... Famicom 3D System and 3DS

[@Glizzy_Shaman]

I hope this whole project won't turn out like Sword Art Online.

[@waxphotography]

VFX1 Helmet is completely missing in this video. :-/

[@shakejunkps3]

PART 2?

[@systemkill90]

Vr is here in 2021.
