What's up Oculus nerds! It's Agree or Disagree night: 14 VR takes in four rounds. Is the free Titanfall 2 VR mod a turning point? Is a 2027 Steam Frame order window worth the wait? John Carmack says Beat Saber was far more important than Half-Life: Alyx. And is VR doing well right now? In the news: Pimax's $1,399 Crystal Pro, Sony's VR patents going to Meta, Ultimechs losing online multiplayer, and live college football on Quest. Plus your comments, the games out this week and what we've been playing.
Steam key hunt: we hid 14 Steam keys in this episode, each cut in half. Find both halves of a key and it's yours. One game each, please, and tell us in the Discord which one you got.
This week's poll: Beat Saber was more important than Half-Life: Alyx. Agree or disagree? Answer in the Spotify poll or the comments, we read them on the show.
