HTC has stepped up their game and promised shipping within 2-3 days on all new orders, and NVIDIA's new GTX 1070 has been WOWing reviewers left and right. We also got a decent metric for how popular Adult content is in VR, with an IndieGoGo campaign promising to make the "World's Best VR Glasses for Porn" hitting its goal in under 24 hours. Actually, now that it's all written out like that, this week was just as weird and exciting as last week.
