When the PlayStation VR is connected to a regular HDMI output, such as an Xbox One, the headset displays content in a 'cinema mode.' In this mode, a large 2D screen covers most of your field of view, as if a cinema screen was positioned a meter or so from your face. Move your head and the screen stays in place.

The stand-up comedian stopped her act and went on a rant against the President-elect at Saturday's Comics Come Home benefit show for Cancer Care in Boston. "I am certain this is not the first time we've elected a racist, sexist, homophobic president. He ain't the first one, he's just the first confirmed one," she said before the audience started a collective boo. Sykes then started turning against the crowd, asking: "You booin' my lines m***********? You're gonna boo my lines now?" "F*** all y'all. F*** you and you and you," she said, pointing at members of the audience. "How can you say he's not racist?" she asked. "Grab them by the p****? How can you say he's not sexist? How can you say he's not racist? How can you say he's not homophobic?" Sykes rose to fame as...
