huge shout out to Squarespace for allowing us to be here at CES 2016 you
0:03
can learn more about Squarespace at the link in the video description so we're
0:08
here at the very front of the central Hall where Intel has taken up their
0:12
usual position and we're going to head into the booth and see if we can find
0:16
some interesting gaming experiences inside so here's our first
0:22
gaming experience we've found what the devil is this thing yeah so this is a
0:26
race car simulator okay I know that much come on I thought I didn't think it was
0:29
a spaceship yeah so uh we make these race car simulators with uh full motion
0:34
and uh realistic controls for uh training for race cars all right well do
0:38
you think you can train me uh we'll see I can pretty much assure you that you
0:42
cannot but we'll try we'll try we're going to do our best here shift up on
0:46
the right shift down on the left this is the reset button when you
0:50
crash you're going to need this button
0:53
right but how realistic is this thing I don't turn upside down you're not going
0:56
to turn upside down but you'll feel a jolt
1:00
all righty then okay there's the break there's the gas don't need the
1:04
clutch oh hi okay I pressed the gas that's what happened right there all
1:08
right first go slow go
1:11
slow yep that's what my wife
1:17
said that's not a good
1:20
joke is there like a track view like
1:25
uh what's that that's how far behind my
1:29
time you are in this sector oh my goodness I don't know what's going on
1:34
here oh crap wow that is some for speedback
1:37
right there how many gears do I have okay
1:43
probably too many oh that's the wrong way okay and I'm going oh
1:52
no hey I didn't turn it upside oh
1:55
okay go ahead and press hold the white button okay I'm going to try one more
2:00
time is that okay oh whoa whoa okay did that okay you know the irony is that
2:06
thanks to the force feedback I feel much more in control than
2:11
usual wow you really got to hold on to that thing and it's probably in Miles
2:17
anyway so I wouldn't understand oh what just happened the time's up that's all
2:21
okay no no no I'm I'm I've had quite enough thank you so this is a cool demo
2:27
Intel has a real life professional gamer here in the booth could you introduce
2:31
yourself yes my name is Stephanie Harvey uh I'm also known as Miss Harvey I app
2:35
for CLG red so there you go um and my
2:38
understanding is that she's here for the express purpose of kicking the asses of
2:43
random newcomers that come to sit down and play with her so this is going to be
2:47
3v one even with teammates I suspect I'm
2:50
not going to do very well at all here is that how it's going to go down I have no
2:54
idea if you're good or not so we'll see well at least she respects us enough
2:59
to wear her headphones so that's
3:04
good oh yeah that was quick wow it's actually lagging a little bit here so
3:08
that's good because that means I'm going to have an excuse when I
3:12
die okay Well's not for me okay and I'm dead
3:18
that's good that was bound to
3:21
happen great all right I helped
3:26
yes Ah that's what I get for standing
3:33
still The Recoil it's too
3:37
strong hey you made us hold still for six seconds and you shot
3:46
me should we come back later so the good news is that that went
3:52
a little better for me than I had initially hoped but there are
3:55
some well there there were some other factors at play here I think my
3:59
teammates were a lot better than me and for another thing I don't know if you observed this when I was just wandering
4:04
around on the map but there was some very very significant lag which I'm not
4:08
exactly sure how would happen with the
4:11
land literally right here at a table but either way there you go I've officially
4:15
killed a professional gamer once yes
4:19
whether it was an accident or not we'll never know thank you for checking out
