I wonder if tolerance to this kind of thing increases the more you play. Will be interesting to see how you get on a month from now with same game.

Can someone please help!
2 issues.
#1. My Gold Sony Headset does not work with psvr. It says 'Cannot use audio device you just connected while using VR headset inline remote'.
I've connected the Sony wire that comes with the headset to the VR.
#2. Originally put heasset on and it fogged up so I wiped it with the included Sony cloth but it seemed still fogged. On closer inspection, the right lenses feels rough. Its also looks as if the fogging was on the inside but it just looks like it has an extra ring on it. This is causing the right lenses to look blurry.
???
Thansk guys and gals.
Would show some pics but I don't know how to do it! :-(

For the London Heist portion, it's actually not even London Heist, just a post-game shooting gallery to get your Duck Hunt on.
Worth checking out?

Asked this a few pages back but:
Would a game that operated like Puppeteer or the rearranging panels in Portal 2 work for simulating locomotion without making you ill?
Like, if in the background, you always had a stable point of reference, but the world was reshaping around it underneath your feet?
What do you guys think?

Finally was able to get an impressions vid for my youtube page done.....basically a half hour talk about PSVR and high hopes for the future.

I know this is pages old and hopefully you fixed it but to me this sounds like you are leaving the camera's safe zone. Are you standing? What's the distance that you are relative to the camera? I assume you've removed all other lights that the camera could potentially pick up?
When I use cinematic mode to watch a movie I just face forward and use my surround sound.
Argh!! I'm really loving the games, but man, why the fuck does the world wobble and pulse with just me sitting still? Playroom is really bad about this.
Playing the Cat/Mouse game, as the cat, whenever I move my head, the world starts to shift and pulse a little bit rather than staying still.
Another example is the room with crane game. Trying to look at the little miniatures sometimes results in the game world floating away from my face in the direction my head is moving..
...ugh

Yup, Batman was incredible and graphically impressive, I need to get back in there. Smoothly grabbing stuff from the utility belt made me smile.
This. Anyone who wants to see something super clear should try the Wayward Sky demo (and the Rez demo).
Completely agree. Sony should make a full game around this and that platformer everyone's raving about.
Well just tried Rigs and Driveclub, good news is neither made me sick even in the slightest, both my boys ages 8 and10 were fine too for a race. My wife could barely finish the ocean one with the shark. Not cause of sickness but she was so scared she had to close her eyes lol, plus Ive never heard her scream that loud (guess ill try harder). The best part of all this has been that even though I have a headset on I dont feel completely disconnected from the people watching, which is a big plus if i ever want to use this thing. I cant even express the feeling of being in a video game, its nuts and this thing does an amazing job.

Insane For Sony
Every problem he listed exists on Oculus and Vive as well. In those terms, tech is indeed lacking right now, but generally the benefits vastly outweigh the problems. It is true however, that VR headset is not a TV replacement right now.
I've downloaded the demo disc for what it's worth. I can try deleting that and installing from the actual disc.
1. Is your USB receiver for the headset plugged in? Also I believe the headphones should be turned OFF.
2. Dumb question but did you check for a plastic film ln the lenses ? And don't wear it ON your face, slide it so it's just off of it for ventilation
Got the missus to have another go, loaded up the start screen for until dawn and got told to get it the fuck off now!
LOL
loaded up the playroom ghost hunt and she seemed to enjoy that, but still says it's not for her.
I spent a couple of hours solid playing different demos earlier, and although some do it better than others immersion is amazing, today I have had some wobbling though, I've had drift before but not the jitteriness, first time I have had it and it's quite jarring, not sure as to the cause though as the setup was fine yesterday evening.

Do you still have the protective tape on the lenses?

It's been said here before but ... Bound in VR! Wow! WOW WOW WOW!
Only if you really like light gun shooting games but for some reason don't want to play Until Dawn. It really is just a single room with a shooting gallery and a few targets popping up, gradually ramping up in speed with additional moving targets.

Try rebooting your PS4.
Played some Playstation VR at a special demo at the mall earlier today.
First thing I tried was SuperHyperCube, which seems solid to me. Neat concept, and the abstract graphics look great.
Second thing I tried was Scavengers Odyssey. This one I was a lot less impressed with. I had no issues with the controls and gameplay, but the game is a total blur-fest. The game has these epic vistas that are supposed to be impressive, but with the low resolution it's just a smudge.
I suspect that game devs will eventually figure out what sort of games look good with the low res screen and which don't. The high detail models and distant views of Scavengers Odyssey doesn't really work, but the simple abstract graphics of SuperHyperCube do. After seeing how good SuperHypeCube looked I'm sure the abstract graphics of Rez look great as well.
The tech is much better than I expected, but I think I'll hold off buying until I get the impression that devs have started designing their games for the peripheral's graphical strengths.

Wow! I was so impressed with the Playroom VR platformer. I wondered how platformers might work in VR and that answered the question. I want more of this or maybe a LittleBigPlanet VR.
Text on the outer edges is blurry.
There is no SDE, or extremely minimal. Maybe you mean something else?

Thanks.
Lollolol. Just tried turned off and they work! Pmsl!
The protective take isn't on I don't think because there is nowhere to pull anything off, like a tab or something?

If you were sweating and tried wiping it with the included cloth all you managed to do was wipe oil and sweat on your lenses.
Either wait til it dries and wipe again or use anything to simply dry the lens first before wiping it.
The lenses look like they have anti-glare and anti-scratch coating.
I use an eyeglass cloth from Costco to clean mine.

Its been ages since they did it and not been wet. Still feel really rough compared to the left lense. Wiped again and nothing.
Can someone explain how I link a picture from my phone and it might help please?

I wonder what resolution Driveclub VR is being rendered at.

No i'm not clear enough, it's blinking 6 times then stopping. It's meant to continue to blink normally and stops when it's charged.

May have found my upper limit for VR usage: two sessions a day of ~an hour each. Did that yesterday and was fine, today also was fine, but then I went for a third session of EVE and I don't feel great afterwards.
Yup...
Barrel roles and loops in EVE, perfectly fine...
Half a race in Driveclub, had to rip the headset off...
Too many things are aliased like crazy, sadly. Some of the VR apps have text that's almost unreadable. I don't know why the apps are allowing text like that through, they seriously need to fix their font renderer. If that's what you're talking about, that's aliasing, not screen door effect. Screen door effect is when there's black space between the pixels, and the PSVR is very good about that, with only tiny black dots at worst. It does have a definite texture to the screen though, and it's very obvious in very dark scenes, like watching an 8mm movie on a super high gain screen. Regular screen door effect is more obvious in brighter scenes.
So I bought the Super Stardust VR add-on pack...I know the VR exclusive mode was underwhelming with some reviewers but I wanted to see how the standard modes looked in VR.
Holy crap!! Playing Arcade puts the gigantic planet right in front of you...it is so awesome playing it this way.
My love of SSHD has been renewed. And when you explode and all those sparks fly into you, I literally went WHOA. Sooo good. Shame the exclusive VR mode seems bad, but I still need to try it.
edit: be sure to use the Near camera instead of Far for maximum whoa.
I believe the max resolution when running VR is 720p for the social screen.

Didn't realize you get the standard game in VR, I thought it was just first person. I might need to purchase this.
I'm happy more and more voices are heard to defend the idea that VR is not only firt person porn. VR is amazing for so many things
On mine SDE very noticeable as well, which surprised me because I heard it was supposed to be minimal.

I've had PlayStation VR since launch and I'm loving it(when my kids ever get off it lol) but I've been so enthusiastic about it a friend of mine got it today but when he tries to set it up he is getting an error message saying no HDMI connection t but he said he followed the instructions and he is tech savvy.
Has anybody else had this problem and how did you fix it?

The SDE on my Gear was very distracting but I feel like I have to try hard to even notice it on psvr. Weird...
When I first played it, it really bothered me. And I'm one of the biggest Driveclub homers.... but after racing in different locations and playing more... it doesn't boyher anymore... I still get amazed with the interior of the cars and just being able to look around.... everything animates realistically..birds to flags and debris.
But yeah rez is low.
I know the regular version of Driveclub isn't getting a patch for PS PRO...but I hope Pro still can help the VR version by cleaning it up a bit...if it does down scale to what ever resolution it runs at.
Yeah, my comparison is also GearVR at 1440p.
Tried adding it to my basket, only for it to tell me that they didn't have it in stock.
The headset itself is easier to get hold of than these bloody controllers.
