We continue with our new format on the podcast tonight. On the program we have the topics that are of interest to us, the hosts of the show. Plus, we have the next round in our Legendary Battle of the Legendary Legends.
Rhett starts us out with the Walking Dead. He has been both watching the show and reading the comics that the show is based on. He makes the observation that this is a zombie apocalypse scenario and is doomed to end badly as per the formula. In this type of scenario where civilization has ended due to the rise of zombies things really only have one way to go, down. Before anything can improve you have to find a way to exterminate every zombie and exterminate the method for zombie propagation. He also points out some of the divergences between the TV show and the source material.
Jason again brings up the topic of VR headsets. He found an article about a new VR headset being offered by Valve. It seems that everyone is jumping on the headset bandwagon these days. And while we would like to experience the new technology we are hesitant to jump on the bandwagon ourselves. Right now the headsets are expensive, require cutting-edge computers to run, and can only accommodate one user. Altogether, not points in their favor. Right now if you buy a VR headset you are buying a very expensive peripheral. If the price becomes more reasonable, then we might endorse them, but not yet.
In the next round of our epic battle royale we pit Ironman against Wonder Woman. Ironman is Tony Stark's superhero persona and is gifted with inventiveness, intelligence, money, increased strength, speed, repulsor blasts, flight, and other energy and projectile based weaponry. Wonder Woman is an Amazon warrior. She has super speed, super strength, durability, accelerated healing, superior combat skills, flight, magic sword, lasso, tiara, braclets. We pick our winner. Let us know who you picked.
