Eating tacos with Danny Trejo is the best use of VR so far
Danny Trejo is a national treasure. Tacos are delicious. Now you can combine both into a wondrous lunchtime experience thanks to Trejo Eats Tacos in VR from Ganglebot Films. The three-minute YouTube short is set in Trejo's own Los Angeles-based cantina, the eponymously named "Trejos' Tacos." You can watch it in either 2D on your mobile device or in 3D with Google Cardboard or similar headset. Just make sure to have real tacos on hand to complete the immersive experience.
Steve Wozniak to co-star with Danny Trejo in iOS action game, we hope there's a Segway level (update: Woz fills us in)
No, it doesn't entirely make sense to us, either. And yet, here it is: Apple co-founder (and Segway enthusiast) Steve Wozniak is going to feature in an iOS game with action star Danny Trejo. ITN FLIX's and React Games' lengthily-worded Danny Trejo's Vengeance (Woz With A Coz) will have Woz trying to rescue his wife with Trejo's help, plowing through enemies with guns and, naturally, machetes. We're working to find out just what prompted the use of Woz's image for an out-of-character role -- other than an attempt at drumming up press for the game's Thanksgiving launch and a somewhat related 2013 movie, of course. There's no telling whether the title will be as fun as its concept is outlandish, although we might be swayed if Vengeance goes full circle with Woz and includes a Breakout mini-game. Update: We got in touch with Woz, who notes that both he and his wife Janet offered themselves on a volunteer basis for the game, including voice work. A friend who knows the producer recommended the involvement, he says. As to how well it plays? While Woz can't say much before the game arrives, his top-level view is that it's "entertaining and FUN." That piques our interest, at least a bit.
