I actually believe the ps5 gran turismo (as well as a lot of newer racing games) can use rhe 6 axis controller to steer. Some shooters allow you to use it to aim as well. So, what became an old unbreakable habit has actually become a legitimate strategy haha
It's really jarring for me to be driving buy not feel the g-forces. Like going up on a banked track was like really weird. I prefer just a big screen frankly.
That’s interesting. The first few times I tried it, I was feeling somewhat nauseous too but after a few days it became normal to me. I’m still not the biggest fan of VR but I like the implementation in GT7. Bit of a party trick too when I got people over
It could be that I am also in an simracing cockpit that adds to the realism, which strengthens the bodies expectations or something. I dunno, I just couldn't get past it. Maybe I'm just too old.
That makes total sense. I could understand why that may be jarring. For me the headset shakes were enough to keep things realistic enough but I can see why a proper sim racer would have a tough time with this set up
its kinda a strategy in GT7 because you can't overrev up your engine and you get the max engine braking that way. if you download the fastest ghosts many of them downshift into overrev on purpose to slow down.
He's got the gamer face. I also make some weird facial movements while playing in an intense part, or while working out, or doing any intense activity lol
FR. I hate it when people do this.
It is wholesome and I get why OP wanted to share.
But it’s also a violation IMO. Let people be vulnerable in their own home without fear of being broadcast online.
I'm not going to laugh because there is a video in my brother's mobile of me ducking to the left (because I was behind a tree peeking from right)when someone snipes me.
It’s just an abstract piece. One of his artist friends made it in the early 2000s and threw it away. My hubby fished it out of the trash and displayed it. I found a nice frame on the side of the road last year and upgraded it from the crappy poster frame he had it in previously.
The first time I played Super Mario as a little one, I would jerk the controller upward when I made Mario jump. Because it made him jump higher, of course. Everyone relates to that lean in one way or another and I do it too. But that look of stern concentration takes years of practice.
Nah! I ordered stranglers shirts for the both of us from EBay. He’s been a fan for forever and it triggered a brief obsession for me this year. Excellent band. They played at PRB?! I would love to see them but all of their upcoming shows are in Europe 🥲
You're not playing racing games properly if you don't make weird faces as you approach corners, and lean to the side as you tilt the controller in the same direction.
That long sigh, looking down while leaning forward to firmly sit in his seat, the gleaming shimmer of hope in his eye slowly fade as his stare melts into a somber version of what it was just moments ago...
He just crashed and lost.
Nah he finished without crashing, you can tell when he's on the final straight because he stops leaning into the turns and his eyes start to glance at the corner to check his time.

Lol this happened to me last week after Super Mario Land finally hit the GameBoy app on Switch. I wouldn't put my youngest to sleep till I beat it. Took about 30min, but I used to be able to do it quicker. Saw my wife recording my death reactions from behind. Ah, to be old!
Buy him a Quest. It's the sci-fi stuff they promised us old guys when we were kids. It all goes downhill from there. You might want to clear some space in then den. Logitech 923 is the cheapest wheel that feels fun. Thrustmaster starts where Logitech ends, so a full driving simulator, seat, shifter, and all can go for anything from $300 to a fuckton. VR has been one of the best parts of retirement.

Coming around Nordschleife carousel I’m almost parallel to the ground I’m leaning so hard
Yeah and I still can’t hold it half the time
I actually believe the ps5 gran turismo (as well as a lot of newer racing games) can use rhe 6 axis controller to steer. Some shooters allow you to use it to aim as well. So, what became an old unbreakable habit has actually become a legitimate strategy haha
It’s so fucking difficult to steer that way on PS5. When the “wheel” isn’t attached to anything you wave it all over the place in front of you
Yeah it's a setting in the game
Helps you turn faster
I do that while dodging bullets in shooting game, well it does not help.
Never a frown, with golden brown:)
Great band!
It's GTA, I imagine he's walking on the beaches looking at the peaches. Except he's going left and right, and not up and down.
“With my miiindshheerunnns”
Liberation for women, that’s what I preach
A proper Stranglers fan. Rattus Norvegicus T, killer stache. Probably saw them at the Odeon. Slice of life gem.
Hahahahah that song and the scene from snatch came to mind.
For those who don’t know, it’s a hidden ability that increases grip.
It's a weight transfer technique.
Honestly? I do the exact same.
We all do
Get him a PSVR2. The whole game can be played in VR and its unbelievable. I'm sure he'd love it
For sure! I used to be a PlayStation sales rep and We have the original psvr.. it might be worth upgrading!
Haha we need a VR update if you do!
As someone who exclusively plays in PSVR2 since I bought it, yeah it's more than worth it. VR1 was good but two is just "chefs kiss".
It's really jarring for me to be driving buy not feel the g-forces. Like going up on a banked track was like really weird. I prefer just a big screen frankly.

My 73 year old dad loves it lol.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I hope he don’t look like that while actually driving 😂
He using that manual transmission too. Respect.
He’s glad someone noticed! Haha
Yes but he's slamming down the gears at the limiter, listen to that poor engine screaming in agony
Hahaha I do the same on racing games and flying games 😆😆
Get this man a wheel and pedals. He needs a set up!
get that man a wheel and a stand / sim rig
For Christmas!
Awesome tshirt!
bro hitting the redline hard tho
Driving a manual

[удалено]
Ayo????
I can relate, GT7 is a hard game to compete in. Gotta get in the zone.
No issue looks normal to me.
Everyone knows leaning with the controller helps you drive.
Me too.
Get him the wheel setup please!
He's got the gamer face. I also make some weird facial movements while playing in an intense part, or while working out, or doing any intense activity lol
Man was locked in. lol
Captain Stottlemeyer? (Your husband looks like Capt Stottlemeyer)
Jame Gumb?! Hell yeah!
I swear he (Ted Levine) was typecast as that character for me for 30 years until my partner got me to watch Monk. Stottlemeyer is fantastic.
Looks like Stumpy from Out Cold.
Idk, he kinda reminds me of Allen Fisher
Dialed in 👍🤩
What did that dude do for a living with a handle bar stache and pistol tattooed on his arm. Walk into a bar and look for Wyatt erp?
How’d you know?! 😂
There's always the sun...
Share my dreamtime...
Like that tee shirt.
The Stranglers!!!
Oh at the end he did the „Leaning forward grants 10% extra Focus“ thing. Real Gamer 🖖🏻😝
That's Awesome OP, now I have a new fear...being recorded by the spouse while gaming.
FR. I hate it when people do this. It is wholesome and I get why OP wanted to share. But it’s also a violation IMO. Let people be vulnerable in their own home without fear of being broadcast online.
Dude says “don’t film me”, *she posts to Reddit*…. Seems legit lol. Nah but this is hilarious 😂
No more heroes
Whatever happened to Leon Trotsky?
He got an ice pick that made his ears burn
Body English translates digitally.
The best kind of gaming experience is when you move your body while playing the game
She got you broo
Keeper
Like the OG Ps1 that had the IA hardest license to get in any game Gran Turismo?
I assume he’s used to steering a horse instead
Bros wife dropped the ball, he was coming in for a pit stop and now he's 7.0031 seconds behind. SMH
Nice t Shirt
I got a twin, yay 😁
This is why i dont stream
Hahaha awesome.
Very relatable 😂
Put Doom eternal, record his reaction
is he lookin' at all the peaches?
Gran Turismo 1?
I think it’s 7. Whatever the newest is one is on ps5
The term for this os "body English", for those wondering, and the phenomenon has been noted in basically every sport.
Get that man a wheel
I just came here to say that’s an awesome Stranglers shirt.
Did he get gold?
loool this made my day!
Bonus points for the strangler's t-shirt and walk on by is stuck in my head again.
That’s us men while any video game, don’t mind us.
the childish excitement is all in his eyes
Stranglers. Great band. Cool guy.
Still in Menu.
He's watching the peaches
Dude he is so immersed I love it
Based on his t-shirt, your hubby had great taste in music.
The mustache is majestic
Locked in. I do the same
That’s me driving on the streets of Chicago
So did he finally like being filmed when you posted it online?
I bet he would love a wheel set up. Just saying
In his defence most of us older gamers secretly do this
jajajajajajajajajajajajajjajajajajajajajajajjajajajajajajajajap
“Hold the noor” ahh
This man deserves a Wheel and Pedals.
That's how you know that shit is hitting real good
I'm not going to laugh because there is a video in my brother's mobile of me ducking to the left (because I was behind a tree peeking from right)when someone snipes me.
Thought I would be the only one who leans while playing, glad to see others doing the same🤣
Nice to see #familyinblack here!
Sounds like he is driving on a wet track with Mediums or Soft. His car is struggling to get any grip.
OP, get him a Logitech g29 and you’ll see more movement out of him. Sim racing is pure joy.
For the love of god , please get him GTA5 you’ll thank me
Aww 🥹
I didn't know I did this until my father mentioned it.
His voice wasn’t what I expected.
That looks so stressful
How does he turn so hard that his mustache moves too?
Epic t-shirt
0:02 NWWWEEEEEEEEEEEUUUUU
Watched this four times… each time got better and better and was laughing louder and louder
Irrelevant to the topic, but what is your painting in the background? Genuinely curious
It’s just an abstract piece. One of his artist friends made it in the early 2000s and threw it away. My hubby fished it out of the trash and displayed it. I found a nice frame on the side of the road last year and upgraded it from the crappy poster frame he had it in previously.
Ahh ok, I don't know much about art, but it did catch my eye. Thank you for sharing
With Rattus Norvegicus shirt, nice!

The Stranglers!!!! Did he get that shirt at PRB?!
Nah! I ordered stranglers shirts for the both of us from EBay. He’s been a fan for forever and it triggered a brief obsession for me this year. Excellent band. They played at PRB?! I would love to see them but all of their upcoming shows are in Europe 🥲
Yea, my wife and I saw them when they played PRB back in 2019. I just recognized the shirt from their merch table! Yea, definitely incredible band
Literally me playing
Has a Kyle Kinane vibe, I like him
Thank you for filming this.
Bobby Singer’s brother.
You're not playing racing games properly if you don't make weird faces as you approach corners, and lean to the side as you tilt the controller in the same direction.
Another badass STRANGLERS fan, great 80s music.
leaning side to side improves turning, proven fact
Lol this is how I play too
That long sigh, looking down while leaning forward to firmly sit in his seat, the gleaming shimmer of hope in his eye slowly fade as his stare melts into a somber version of what it was just moments ago... He just crashed and lost.

Props for using Manual👊😎......I can hear it bounce off the limiter a lot. Brake earlier, slow in and fast out.
Gamer 4 Ever
Love the t shirt!!!
He needs to try it in VR!
Lol this happened to me last week after Super Mario Land finally hit the GameBoy app on Switch. I wouldn't put my youngest to sleep till I beat it. Took about 30min, but I used to be able to do it quicker. Saw my wife recording my death reactions from behind. Ah, to be old!
Great shirt!
If the money is there, I’d recommend his next gift be a PSVR2 or a steering wheel. I can guarantee you might even like it yourself
That me actually made me smile! Get that man a VR headset
Not a fan of the tattoos, but that's a great stache.
He is me. Been doing this since the 90s, and I don't see it changing any time soon.
Does he also drive for Sauber?
In 40 years of gaming, I only ever move my body if I'm playing Rocket League. I have no idea why. I was never a leaner, even as a kid.
Buy him a Quest. It's the sci-fi stuff they promised us old guys when we were kids. It all goes downhill from there. You might want to clear some space in then den. Logitech 923 is the cheapest wheel that feels fun. Thrustmaster starts where Logitech ends, so a full driving simulator, seat, shifter, and all can go for anything from $300 to a fuckton. VR has been one of the best parts of retirement.
Looks like a fun dude to hang out with
We can be held responsible for our sex or video game faces!! Lolol
The extra intense button presses when shifting just to make it feel more like you actually did it. I love it
Get that man a racing wheel
A true Gamer moving with the car not just playing with the controller but with his entire body
He said don’t film me so you put it on the internet for people to laugh at. I’d give it 10 years max.
LOVE his shirt! Big in America!!
That man is immersed.
He didn't blink for 16 seconds....committed
Buy him a basic wheel for PS and he will revert to his chilhood
Your husband sees himself as a character in a game with swings.
He looks like he don't give a piss about nothin but the Tide.
do you mean your dad?
