    It looks like Valve has updated the Safety pdf at some point which now mentions more counties. Namely they mention Canada, Australia & New Zealand in regards to warranty!

    Boneworks is close to being ready for launch:

    https://twitter.com/BrandonJLa/status/1182877210593488897

    Boneworks looks like a nice semi-empty but slightly advanced tech demo - looks like a physics simulator in a Half-Life like environment. Love to be wrong and find a great singleplayer adventure in Boneworks. Still, and especially compared to Asgard's Wrath, Boneworks seems like an insect up against a real dragon, lol. I have a hard time understanding why so many users on Index Reddit care so much for Boneworks compared to Asgard's Wrath. I guess they're all angry about Oculus keeping the good stuff locked away... although it really isn't... Sigh... Interesting if Boneworks gets a Metascore above 80, if it gets a Metascore at all...

    PS. Ok, maybe Boneworks does have a story... and more content than that:

    "Story: Play through the game's mysterious narrative and explore the deep inner workings of the Monogon Industries' artificial intelligence operating system; Myth OS." (Does sound kinda like a weak story)

    And:



    Currently it's not a game I care much about - but I love surprises, maybe it's much better than I think, and the game is designed for the Index. Hardware requirements are similar to Asgard's Wrath - recommended i7 7700K, GTX 1080, 16GB ram.

    Still going strong ;) (Hint: check number 4)



    Hmmm, maybe I should send Valve some ideas for new commercials... Like:

    Image result for borg you will be assimilated

    Or maybe better... 

    Image result for we break for nobody

    Then again, Valve has no Asgard's Wrath and no cheap Quest...

    Pistol Whip now has a release date, namely November 7!

    Then again, who cares, Asgard's Wrath will at least dominate my time in VR for a very long time... Pistol Whip could be a nice exercise, through, when occasionally needing a break from Asgard's Wrath, lol - Here's Index gameplay (previously posted in a different thread by Nalex):

    Fun thing - my 11-year old son and I talked about him trying Asgard's Wrath today - and then he asked if he could use Knuckles with the CV1, because he liked Knuckles much more than Touch. Actually Knuckles fit him perfectly even if his hands are smaller than mine:

    The usual gossip - but just maybe there's some truth to it, I'm starting to believe:

    More cyberpiloting in Wolfie - officially this game does not support the Rift - but I'm convinced that Valve Index will be supported  ;) Game launches July 26 (in 6 weeks) - for $20.

    For the next 2 days, Cyberpilot is on sale for just $9.99 - it's a great game for that price even including its flaws. Get it here:
