I hope we get a lot of PS5 patches to the current PS4 PSVR games to make them native 4k as it would make the games look so much better in the current headset.

Yes - I am planning to do just that. Will be saving Skyrim and RE7 for later, and do a bit of other VR games that are more static.
Also before tackling it - I still need to finish the RE6 and Revelations 2... even though the order doesn't really matter for RE games, I'd like to keep my experience in chronological order.

Indeed. I played it for the first time (flat version) on PC because I didn't even think about buying a VR headset at that time. My PSVR playthrough a year later was cool, but since I knew the game inside-out by that time nothing was scary anymore. OTOH I would probably just have chickened out and not played it at all if my first playthrough was in VR.

Well I didn't even get to enter the house yet... I did see a glimps of a guy passing by in the woods, and that's pretty much where I turned it off for the night... so hopefully I didn't ruin it too much!
To be honest the scariest part so far is the missing wife's video in the beginning of the game that she'd be coming home etc etc. She looked rather scary. LOL.
Maybe It's Medicine?

Yeah for me this is the game that sealed the deal that VR experiences could be objectively better than their non VR counterparts. People can call VR a fad all they want, nothing can change my mind after playing RE7 in VR.

I know that no one cares about Fantastic Contraption, but I like it a lot. Probably too much. You basically just build a contraption that solves some simple problem, and the problems get more complex as the levels get higher.
You can also cheat by making ridiculous contraptions that break the intent of the level. Like in this level, you have to take this big, heavy square to the goal area but you have these falling surfaces to traverse. I said fuck that and built a giant catapult with 3 powered wheels to help lift and throw the piece far enough.
Using the 2 Move controllers to build and stretch everything from scratch is so satisfying.

I have a love/hate relationship with Firewall. I played like 60 hours of it when it came out. At least 30 of those hours were staring at the lobby and loading screens.
If they just could have figured out host migration or could have been a big enough team to afford their own dedicated servers, almost every problem with the game would disappear (a single short round after minutes of waiting, the host leaving kills the entire match, ect).

Well, I finally beat all 50 base levels of Fantastic Contraption plus the extra ones they added in an update. What a chunky ass game! If you're into it, there's no shortage of levels. The last level was such an absolute bitch. I probably spent 5 hours on it over the course of a week.

Anyone have Everybody's Golf VR? Tonight I got around to trying out the demo. I'm kind of impressed. The handling of the clubs and the way the putting felt was all pretty damn nice. I played a ton of the PS3 and Vita versions of the game, so I have to imagine it gets even better in the VR version when you can actually play a hole.

I played the demo and was impressed too, but I'm not really a golf fan.

I bit the bullet and bought Everybody's Golf. I can see now why they set the demo up they way they did with not letting you try a course. The demo shows you the great controls and visuals and sets you up to expect this awesome and complete Hot Shots Golf package in the full release.
The full release feels extremely barebones, unfortunately. There are 3 courses. There don't even seem to be tournaments like the other games. You're not playing against anyone. You are just out there on the course trying to better you personal scores over and over again and that's the entire game.
Every time you load into the course, the caddy tries go to into this 3+ minute spiel about the weather and stuff and you know you're just supposed to be staring at her tits or something but if you're older than 15 and know that tits don't feel like bags of sand, it's just going to annoy you that you have to skip this dumb introduction every single time.
If you mess up a single putt, you might as well just quit and restart the match. Lots of loading and menu manipulation follows, along with having to skip the caddy's fucking cutscene again...all because of one failed putt.

I've been sitting on the fence with this game for so long, I'm glad to finally hear from someone who got the game. I was afraid it would be something like that.

Inexcusable. Sounds like a mode that should have been attached to the 2d game.

That's what really frustrates me. I would have happily bought the regular game with this mode included. But this mode as a full game is an insult at its price.

People may not know that Racket Fury (fucking awesome table tennis VR game) got a multiplayer update along with some other content like new arenas.
I got matched up against a guy from Germany just now and we played a couple awesome and intense games. There was some lag since we're on different sides of the globe, but damn I wish this game had a huge following online.

Heh, funny, I (a German) tried the Multiplayer a while ago and had a real funny (if not outright lagless) match with a nice guy from Mexico. The mode works aside from the bad connection.

I do not get motion sickness or have any problems with heights or elevators or anything in real life, but when you go down that very tall elevator into the bat cave in the Batman VR game, that was fucking me up pretty bad. When I realized I was doing the Slav squat so as not to fall over, I had to take the headset off

I've been meaning to post here for some time.
I love the Batman VR game. The atmosphere is amazing. I actually sat down at the title screen and just took in the view. I mean to virtually be in Gotham? Just amazing.
Anyone play to the end? I still think about that final sequence. It really shows what VR can do.
Also did you view all the vehicles and view the character? Or view them in you hand? Great stuff. I want more.

I'm gonna be the dissenting opinion on the game. I think it's bad. Even at the launch, when hype and amazement was at its highest, I couldn't stand this game.
The graphics were nice at the time and probably still are, but I didn't find that there was actually a game there. It was more like a walking simulator with tedious roadblocks they called gameplay in the way to block you before you can start walking again. I got a copy of Apex for about the same price recently too. I'm just waiting for it to arrive on Thursday.

I'm gonna be honest, I don't know much about VR... I hear that Microsoft aren't concerning themselves with it for now... But some folk keep talking about it...
Do me a favour, guys, and give me your own pros/cons of VR... From what I hear it's kind of a joke, but some folk stand by it...

You have to understand, most people that talk about it, have never tried it. Since 2016 i've demoed it to about 450 people, lots of gamers too. Often times, gamers would say before trying it: "This is kinda like kinect/gimmick/wii right?"
Never out of 400+ demos was one single person not surprised how different the tech was in person. Probably 90-95% were blown away. But most people just talk out of their ass.
Cons
-Nausea is possible for some
-Lower resolution than flat games
-setup can be cumbersome
Pros
+You're literally inside a videogame
+Scale is incredible, mountains seem like real mountains
The easiest thing is just go to best buy and demo it. Or google VR demo near me. It's worth it if immersion is something you enjoy in gaming.

I'm having family over for Christmas, any good casual PSVR games that are on sale that you would recommend? (I have Creed, Superhot, Ace Combat, Tetris and Astrobot). I would like some short, easy, fun games for them, since this will be a new experience for them.
Any good games on sale (doesn't have to be casual friendly) that you guys would recommend? Will probability pick up BoxVR for fitness, Skyrim seems great just don't know how long I could play in VR mode for a game so long.

, thanks for the review on Everbody's Golf. Was going to pick it up but will stay away now. Hopefully Racket Fury goes on sale soon.

I was curious on a few occasions if there was a list of all NA physical releases for PSVR. I couldn't really find one, so I started making one. This list isn't pretty and a lot more information could be put on it (average price, ect) but it at least has the titles. I could be missing some. I basically just went through like 30 pages of Amazon listings with a search for psvr.
If you've ever cared about a list like that, here you go. I might keep it up to date, and I might forget it exists in a week. Stay tuned lol

I have the same problem, I have been slowly switching some games to digital, mostly with VR cause it's less trouble, but I like having physical.....

It's so weird for me bc I've specifically said even just a year ago that digital is the way to go for VR. And now I hunt deals on physical while avoiding digital...
Sometimes its bc i like being able to sell something I dont care for. I'd be selling Everybodys Golf if I got that on disc
