After playing PSVR at my cousins house a few weeks back, I'm totally hooked on it lol. I am going to Gamestop tomorrow and trade in my Xbox One for the PSVR+Until Dawn: Rush of Blood and maybe a few more VR games.

You need to get a second controller to control the TV manual. The VR player uses the first controller to manipulate the bomb ☺
Ah, we tried to use a Move controller but that didn't seem to work.
Probably about time we got a second controller anyway.
Thanks
Thanks for the advice, sounds like it's worth a shot. Can I use regular (office, sticky) tape for this? Because that's all I have. Or should I procure electrical tape?

You can just download the bomb disposal manual on your phone and play it that way.

While you're waiting to get another controller, you can get the manuals online. Either print them out or view them on a PC/Tablet

Just brought a psvr which came with PlayStation worlds for free, 100% plan to buy superhot vr and already have battlezone
The summer deals look great - batman is a no brainer, until dawn sadly isn't on sale but I'll get that I'm sure.
What else should I pick up on the summer sales? Any one have any recommendations?

I picked up Polybius on sale.
Let me tell you that all the screenshots and YouTube videos are kinda underwhelming. But when put that headset on and start chaining speed ramps - Jeeeeeez - it will fry your mind.
Einstein once asked the question: What would it feel like if you were to chase a photon at the speed of light?... I think Jeff Minter has just demonstrated that...
Office sticky tape is fine. I hope that you get it working without having to buy another one.

Got some more games in the summer sale today. Getting 4-5 VR games for the price of 1 standard game is really helping me catch up on all the PSVR games coming out lately. I've got about 25 VR games now, so starting to get a nice collection going on.
I picked up Tiny Trax, The Brookhaven Experiment, Dick Wilde, VR Invaders and Korix.
Tiny Trax is very addictive but hard to master, gonna take a lot of practice to get good at it.
Korix is basically Command & Conquer / Tower Defence mixed with Tron, very cool strategy game, pretty challenging too.
I love the table top game feel of them These types of game are really a great fit for VR, like Tethered. I can't wait for Dino Frontier too.
I got Brookhaven and Dick Wilde for the Aim support, really good wave based shooters from what I've played so far and it's nice to have more games for the Aim controller.
VR Invaders is a great arcade shooter, solid Move support, had a blast playing it.

PSVR-Gaf - how do you rate I Expect You to Die? £20 seems way too expensive for such a short game but I exploited that Amazon glitch the other day to get £84 of store credit for £50. Tempted...
I also bought Polybius, Fated: The Sacred Oath, Superhypercube and GNOG in the sale. Might pick up a few more in the week.

yeah it's crazy. much easier than it looks though, it's pretty forgiving with collisions.. which i appreciate.
btw i think some of the trophies are glitched or the descriptions are wrong, i've done COW-rageous at least 5 times but it won't unlock.. so annoying.
I would only buy "I expect you to die" on a sale. Like maybe $10 USD.
Its fun the 1st time you do the missions and there are only like 4. Its very bare bones. Dont get me wrong, the 1st time playing the stages is fun but not full price fun.
Lately I've been buying these games on sale and I learnt my lesson. Bought Dirt Rally VR bundle almost $40USD and played a bit because its hard as hell. If i had waited, I could of had it for $20USD for the whole deluxe VR bundle.
So I suggest when "I expect you to die" to go on a 50%+ sale or VR games in general, specially if they are bare bones.

I was watching the TV from the side as my brother played Superhot this weekend.
He turned to stop an attacker to his right and legit punched me in the ear.
We had a good laugh.
He had somewhere to go and I told him we could stop at any time but, he had a hard time quitting until he beat whichever level he was on.
Good times.

Yeah, makes sense. I hope it goes on sale soon, but at least I have a ton of other games to play until then.

Played some VR Karts. Pleasantly surprised! Looks fine. Love power sliding around corners, feels really good. Completed rookie cup, though not in first place. Tried multiplayer, but it did not find any other players
Not sure I could recommend VR Karts at its current UK price of £29.99, but would definitely recommend at half that price.

I just don't get their intention honestly. It's a Gear VR enhanced port to vive and psvr. Vive cost $15 and psvr version is $30. They could've throw it at $10 and people will still buy it to have some community online race.

I've only seen 4 or 5 tracks so far and they all feel very samey. Mainly because they are all very flat.
That's unfortunate. Embargoes on release day always makes me skeptical about a game, especially when they're offering a pre-order incentive.
I honestly never thought I'd read "VR Karts" and "Pleasantly surprised" in the same post. I consider it the worst VR game I've ever paid money for.

I believe that was the main concern in Without Parole's Review. There is basically no variety and all of them are flat courses.

(stares sheepishly at the ground)... i got a code for free. The price point is a killer for sure.

Interesting to hear this opinion. I reviewed it and absolutely hated it. Was gobsmacked when I saw the price. I couldn't recommend people paying more than about £5 for it.
I watched Kyle Bossman of Easy Allies live stream it last night and he was really enjoying it. It looks pretty solid assuming you enjoy resource management games.

Yeah I kinda of feel the AI is just a tad too good in this. Another difficulty option which lowers the aggressiveness of the Ai would be a nice addition, especially if you just want a more chilled experience in VR.

I pre-ordered Dino Frontier as a direct result of how much I enjoyed Wayward Sky. I feel like Uber gets it, they know how to make a good looking, charming, fun to play PSVR game. It's my hope that the same love, care and quality carried over to Dino.
Unfortunately that didn't pan out, so I just got a brand new pair... I'm having trouble setting up the olay area for Superhot VR, getting the camera to see the ground and my head at the same time seems impossible unless it's three meters high!

Have a buddy that laminated the printed doc and uses dry erase markers with it....pretty clever.

Stealth of what? Link gives errors

Damn on the retro fix.
You need more distance from the camera. The camera's view is conical so if you can get 8'/2.5m+ distance you should be ok. Use the "check your surroundings" video when launching the game to check if you can be seen head to toe.

Oh my. lol PSVR is honored. Welcome to the (V)Real World.
Fuck Gamestop right now. Went to go pick up my PSVR yesterday and trade in my Xbox One. They were testing it and said that they couldnt get any video output and sent me home without a trade in. Decided to try it out today and see if it works and Bam! The damn thing starts.

Anyways had a few of cousins at my house playing micks gunrange from 2pm to 10pm lol. Also preordered Dino Frontier so im super excited to play it tomorrow

My missus takes lots of notes in a pad whilst we play, a laminated doc is a great idea! Seems like the difficulty curve in this game is a bit extreme - we got through the needy bombs with just the two of us but needed 3 players working hard to get through the challenging section. Kinda limits how much you can play the game.
You don't need the camera to see the floor too, you can reach down and grab a gun without actually reaching it (doesn't always work as quickly as you'd like but does usually work as long as you're pointing at it). I have mine so it can see my moves when my hands are raised and lowered and it works pretty well (unless you forget yourself and take a few steps forward).

I rather like the way CastleStorm looks on PSVR. It's the same old game, sure. But the higher viewpoint and 3D really pull you into the world. Not really worth a purchase if you've already played it, but CastleStorm virgins could do worse than consider it.

couldn't just write "stealth release of Vrog"
touché lol
probably an hour into Theseus and its meh so far. What really shines in this game is the atmosphere, it really makes me want a VR remasters with God of War and Uncharted. VR is so atmospheric, entering towns and dungeons would be amazing with so many 3rd person games. The combat in this game lacks any weight and is boring so far, hopefully they add more to make it more fun.
