That's the joke me and all my buddies made at [first glance during the Direct](https://youtube.com/watch?v=fVjRBTy5irI). Upon reflection, and I can't believe I am saying this, I think GameChat is quite more sophisticated and intentional than party chat on the other platforms. " I have the *same* old 1080 Logitech webcam and this video inspired me to dig it out and attach it to a USB-C dongle. It worked perfectly. Now I am GameChat ready. I was surprised and delighted to see the accessibility features. I was also surprised to see it all running in pretty good time with the conversation. Sony and Microsoft could learn a ton from Nintendo's implementation here.
