Hate that I'm at work for another 5 hours
Embargo ends in 20 minutes.

Its sold out..has like 40 games for launch with a nice amount announced for the rest of the year into next year. What else should they be doing
It's been a pretty common feeling with how low key they've treated it in their major press conferences.

It seems crazy to me this is launching without any big games to go with it.
All VR headsets are cool from a technical perspective but man do they need some decent software to go with it.

What do you mean by big? There are lots of games launching with it. It's a really good lineup.
I follow Playstation JP and US on Twitter and they've been tweeting about it pretty much everyday

I hope they show some of the exclusives like Battlezone.
Starts at 11pm my time, but screw it, I'm gonna be there til I pass out.

Sony barely bankrolling big games for one of the most successful console launches of all time. No chance for an accessory that may do a million or so.

I'm pretty sure almost no one outside of Sony has a PS4P right now.
Uhm, there are no pros out there yet.
Batman VR, Battlezone, Driveclub, RIGS, Until Dawn all seem like *big* games.
No one has a Pro, so there is your answer.
There aren't any PS4 pros outside of Sony right now.

Gotcha. I wasn't sure whether the press was being hooked up with Pros to demo PSVR or not. Glad to know that's not the case to skew things.
Unlikely they have software with pro patches anyways.

Just want some unhyped honest impressions and I'm hoping they'll be the place for that
You have come to the right stream for that.
You're in the right place.
I think they realize that this could bring then a lot of new eyes.
Apparently the last 2 VR streams were pretty successful and this is the more mainstream headset of the 3.
10 mins? I'm in!The web's #1 resource for jaded reactions to games and gaming news.

The most impressive of those are existing games that most people have played.
I mean a Wii Sports type of game, built from the ground up to prove the concept.
At the moment, VR games are either adaptions of existing games, or fairly unimpressive tech demos.
I was hopeful Sony would have put a bit more weight behind it but I guess the justification isn't there yet.

There was an embargo? No wonder it has seemed like there is no info/hype...

WTF is this shit?
I'm going to bed in a minute but I'm looking forward to checking out the recording tomorrow. I'm guessing they'll have access to most of the launch games?

Hoping for that traditional 10 minute late start so I can finish listening to this Bombcast.

Well, my entire thought process with what I made is that UPF is in the Matrix Construct so a suit wouldn't work and also, I wanted to go for something different than what another dude did.
Thanks! Added.
You should check out Playroom VR. That's pretty much what it is.

Sure they are. I love GB but it surely seems like they don't even enjoy videogames sometimes. I think it's a matter of having very high standards but also a bit of snobbery tbh.
In the end that's OK because i follow easy allies too, which are like the polar opposite of that, and that helps a lot when making decisions on whether a certain game will be right up my alley or not.
