Any final impressions on Farpoint from people who got it early at all?
Really tepid on spending more on PSVR and the bundle is expensive in Canada and am waiting on impressions before pulling the trigger.

I'd probably get Farpoint first for the better priced bundle (I have it on order too) because if the bundle is limited or gets discontinued, then the game and Aim controller are more expensive separately.
These bigger VR titles need support or Sony might lose interest if they don't sell well. Injustice should do well anyway and can be easily picked up later. That's what I'm doing anyway.

Is there a possibility to see fallout 4 in PSVR?
PS. Why I can't make a new thread?

Well, the display does have only 25% more pixels, consisting of 16.6% less subpixels than PSVR. There's not much to be gained resolution-wise unless the PSVR is held back by the PS4 itself.
Having bought Battlezone in a recent Amazon sale for 20, I played the full game today for the first time. It does not have the sharpest possible resolution, but it's not bad either, quite acceptable. I guess it's to some smaller percentage supersampled. Do you have all settings maxed out?

This may be the first time I write in to the Playstation Network and ask them if it's possible for a refund. I bought Time Machine VR and tried it, and I can't play it due to crashing. I get through the tutorial level fine, load into the FMV intro, and about a minute in, the game crashes to desktop at the exact same spot. I tried deleting and re-installing, I took the "boost" mode off on the settings, but no matter what I do, can't get past the introductory FMV, it always crashes there. Disappointing.
It's not announced, but it's possible. Maybe at E3 we'll here something one way or the other.
Junior members can't make threads.

Go with the bundle imo....Injustice 2 will drop in price very fast I would imagine
Yeah it looks better for sure, and other games that get supersampling, even a touch, look drastically better than PSVR does on PS4. This just happened to be the case where it wasn't. Shaders were crazy shimmery.
AA being turned off helped oddly enough.
Otherwise, yeah max settings.

This is a really good point actually, and puts the quality of the panel in different light for me. I definitely want an HMD this holiday, PSVR is looking very likely.

Is there an embargo for reviews? Only a few days until launch and nobody has published yet.
Wink twice for awesome and once for disappointment, I promise this will be between us!
Anyway Statik is fantastic, the co-op was so wonderfully made, too bad there's only 3 of them.
Shopping trip today
Summer Lesson doesn't say it supports English but is the Asian version, so will see
Asian Chinese and Asian English are two different version.
Do you mind flipping over and take a picture? I can read Chinese and most region 3 games do support both languages.
Or YES, IT SUPPORTS MORE THAN ONE GAME.
The FAQ is going to be a doozy and I suspect most will ignore it anyway. IMO Sony's done a decent enough job with their communications about Farpoint and Aim but the same four questions still get asked in every related thread.
Yea, definitely full chinese version. Kind of stupid for them to manufacture different version for the same region.
I'd probably be ok if it has Chinese audio as I'm learning spoken mandarin (slowly), but written I have no chance.
Perhaps they patched in English... like you said makes no sense to have two SKU for the same region. Child of Light for Vita Asian version had an English patch after release.
Vita is restoring to the 32gb, and can't wait to unpack the fighting stick. First real joystick since the PS1
Namco's Chinese games are only in Chinese (Gundam, Super Robot, etc). Sony's first party games have multiple language.

I wish you luck and will try my best to help you control the misinformed in that thread lol.
The same mindset of "I didn't see it, I'm ignoring every news related so it doesn't exist."
I'm still seeing a lot of, Does the old sharpshooter works? or Why would I buy this expensive controller for one game.
It blows my mind.
Ignorance itself wouldn't be a crime. It's the not being informed, not trying to be and then shitposting as if you knew that's the worst.

Quite possibly the most influential vr fps is released in a few days, where is the hype/buzz?
This game needs to be a success so we get sequels and other games of the genre.
Don't let me down Sony/ImpulseGear

I don't think they'll be AAA style buzz for vr only games for awhile. Nonetheless Sony have been promoting the game I've seen commercials and ads

Wonder if we're gonna see more on Ace Combat 7 at E3 (especially vis-a-vis the VR content)...here's hoping that it's substantial since Namco was saying that it's not gonna be the full game after all

Managed to play "keep talking and nobody explodes" with a group of friends...AMAZING! They all loved it. Definitely one of the best experiences in VR (even though it's not a game that wows you with the VR aspect per se).
Strongly recommend it to everyone who likes puzzles, feels like your very own "escape room"

I'm with ya. This game has me extremely nervous. It'd definitely help spell the doom of PSVR if it doesn't do well. It's imperative that it does well.

It's a good game, great even in co-op.
I think at this point we need to stop waiting for a killer app and just accept that there will eventually be a critical mass of 'good' games to warrant the price.
When the killer app does arrive, it probably won't even be a game but rather a gamified social application of sorts.
Just felt that the lack of media coverage and youtuber influence are the main aspect of VR not growing rapidly. Channels like Gamespot, IGN rarely covers a VR news and never reviewed any VR games aside from those launch PSVR games. Even those bigger budget games from Rift never got a review/coverage from them. Followers of channels that are focusing VR are also people who already own one.
Not to mention whenever they finally talk about VR, it will get nothing but hate, dislike, VR is a gimmick and hate messages.

The Screen Savers had a segment about Farpoint VR with Dr. Mark from Sony

Thing is, Farpoint is the epitome of a game absolutely no one would talk about if it wasn't in VR, everything about the game looks generic and comes from an unknown studio (even though Sony is "kind of" supporting it). I still want it to succeed because I want VR to succeed, but honestly, I bought PSVR at launch and I'm not buying Farpoint at launch (only if reviews are amazing, and that seems unlikely, hope I'm proven wrong)

I think that's a great thing about VR, a mediocre game in 2D comes alive in VR.
Yep, terrific party puzzle game. We had a total blast with it.

Farpoint is developed by former Socom Devs.
