Played some Arizona Sunshine on the PRO with the PSVR AIM, honestly I'm having quite a good time so far. The first rifle was a little hard to use the iron sights as they are so small (although I was still scoring head shots) but later there are some great guns, etc with bigger and better sights. I think the game is exactly the kind of experience I was looking for after Farpoint. That being; another campaign VR game, with a focus on adventure, exploration and good use of my new AIM controller. Only an hour or so in, but so far so good. There is still quite a lot of Jaggies in the environment, even on the PRO, but its far from a bad looking game and the game actually looks quite nice in places too. If I had to rate it right now I'd be giving it something like a 7 or 8 out of 10.

I like the idea a lot. I just hope it's worth the effort. I doubt many people think to check the OP in long threads like these. That would be a great resource each week, though.

Don't think that's a game issue as it was surprisingly steady here, game would be pretty unplayable without good tracking.
If you can keep on top of that it'd be incredibly handy for those who buy from the US store.
Thanks for the info. Too expensive to risk given what others have said though, I'd need a demo at this point having such wildly differing reactions in the reviews, I'd have to be sure I would be getting a satisfying experience and not something that's going to actively piss me off. I can live with jaggies even on my Pro, but if the shooting is off or feels wrong, there really isn't much point.
Damn you man, damn you, I was about to hop onto the nope zone and you pulled me back to the fence. *extra note, the game seems to be jaggy in every platform including PC, you can really see how jaggy it is from vive trailer and gameplay video.

Syndrome got a new date yet a-freaking-gain. End of July.
The only VR game that we have ZERO information what it is about or if it is actually a full VR game.
I gave up on this game, The Persistence is coming.

Yeah, this will be very helpful. VR games are expensive.
Hahaha, sorry Matt. Still, gotta say I think its got its hooks into me already, the next chance I get to do some gaming this will be the one I fire up for sure. Is it worth its price tag? That's a question I can't really answer right now though. The game isn't as polished as Farpoint that much is clear already, it has a few rough edges, but shooting Zombies with the AIM is fun for sure.

Lol, Syndrome and Syren were supposed to come out ages ago. It is too bad though because PSVR needs more story driven exploration games like that.
Thanks for the links. And yes, I follow this thread very closely. Get my VR fix!
havent played either, but at least Vive version has shadows for characters,and richer colors? Or maybe that is just different areas.

I read on their site that it's not the full game but a separate mode of "last man standing". No idea if this is multiplayer or vs AI, but it doesn't seem likely it'll be worth the full asking price of the game just for that VR add-on. They say their next game will have full VR support.
Thanks for pointing this out. Flight games in VR, it's a natural fit, I'll keep this on my radar.

Hell yeah! That looks rad. I love Pilotwings.
I notice that the OP didn't mention any of these games, it was announced before I joined here and I've only updated these in reddit previously when I was active there.
And Here's the official site introducing this entire thing : https://www.playstation.com.cn/chinaheroproject/index.html
And the rest are previously announced/known titles, some new images

The Walker by Haymaker

This game will feature PvP, magic, shooting, zombies in a weird dark setting.
They are aiming for a AAA quality (though the footage looks rough)

As for the info, I have no freaking idea what this is. They mention something about playing different characters in the story to experience different point of view and gameplay.

Human Saving Plan (?)
Trailer : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A5qrCl4BFQ
Now this is the weirdest shit you will ever see. I actually played this and LOVE it. It's really bizarre but intensively fun. It's basically a tower defense game where you suspend the animal in the air to kill enemies while trying to save humans parachuting everywhere. Yes. Demo available in PSN China store.

Is Battlezone any easier now?

I believe that it is, but I never payed it much. I am not a big fan of the game. FWIW, I beat it on easy with 2 other people with little difficulty. Granted, one of the players was an experienced Battlezone player.
Thanks for these, and wtf at that Pervader demo. Icarus part seems like it could be cool though.
Project Boundry looks cool. I remember watching the trailer last year from that China conference.

Is the community for RIGS dead? Really loved the game when I tried it at PSX a couple years back.
At 19.99 its tempting but I know its likely inactive online

Damn this was my experience at gamestop today. Part of it has to do with farpoint but most of it has to do with neir tho and I just copied and pasted but I thought it would work here because it shows what gamestop things of farpoint
But I went to gamestop to trade in all my games for the 70% bonus. So first I ask expecting and getting a no if they have farpoint. But instead of saying no this guy says no then goes on a tirade about how he hopes Sony doesn't make anymore so it shows people that they need to pre order for reasons then tells me I'm dumb for expecting them to have some. Well alright haha my bad.
Then I go to plan B and get this game. He looks up and is like are you sure you want to get this game. You have 65 bucks just sitten here and a lot of games are coming out don't you want to devide it and start paying off all the games that are coming out. I say no I need something to play for summer thinking the will be the end. Then his like well are you sure you don't want this game called portal knight it's really good. I say no politely and he ask again saying "your just going to randomly jump into neir but you have someone recommending a great game and your going to say no". Again I politely say no and he says "allrifht man your loss just don't complain to me when you want to return it for like 25% value"
Like damn that is why I hate gamestop. Dude bombarding me with pre order info. Like I love destiny and CoD like most gamers but shit sometimes I want to play a masterpiece and I'm going for the trifecta or quadfecta after beating Zelda, persona 5, then I'm going to finish persona golden and neir
Damn this year has been absoulutly bonkers :O

One dumbass employee's opinion is not what GameStop thinks of Farpoint. In fact they probably wanted more stock because it sold out so fast. GameStop is interested in money. Selling the AIM controller = moneyDamn this was my experience at gamestop today.

Should have told this obnoxious piece of shit that your GAF user friend Glix went into GS to preorder the Aim bundle 4 days before launch and that preorders were "closed" at all gamestop locations.
Then you should have told him to go fuck himself.

I tried some more Arizona Sunshine today, but I used the Moves this time. The controls are funky as hell. Maybe I'd get used to them, but I just find the game so clunky and unfun to play. I don't think I'll ever get to that point of the controls feeling more natural because I tire of the game itself too quickly.
I did start up a 1-player campaign for a couple minutes while waiting for someone. It felt a little bit more solid. Maybe the co-op just runs worse or something. There's some design funkiness like if you go up on a roof without your partner, there's nothing there. Then when he goes up a ladder to come toward you, all the enemies suddenly spawn next to you and wipe you out.
It just feels like such a cheaply-made game. I couldn't be more disappointed. I've never felt like deleting a newly-purchased game so quickly before.

Yup, going to request a refund if I can. I know it's a long shot, but I'd rather have mervils and battlezone (and still save 10 bucks.) I was super excited for this game.
Wait for a deep sale. Watch davestation, without parole, or PSVR Frank for reviews. They all pan it, and they're all right to do so.

Has the Spider-Man experience dropped yet? I'm in meetings all day today so I can't check. Oh and don't bother with Arizona Sunshine until fixes come in. Audio quality is some of the worst I've heard since the Rambo on-rails shooter that came out years ago, tracking and the controls in general are borked and there's terrible gun drift. Not worth it at the moment.
This article says 6/30 for Spidey.

Be aware that online play is dead for rigs, and that was a substantial component of the game. There might be a small bump in player count after the sale, but I would count on it.
Question regarding Tethered. I bought it last week during the sale and love it so far. Spent 45 minutes on the tutorial alone.
Played the first level/island last night. Does it have an ending? It just kept going and going. Eventually had to turn it off and go to sleep. But I am wondering if there is a key objective that I missed.
I assume each level has a unique objective? Or is it just "build all the stuff until your little dudes are maxed out"?

You collect blue floating orbs. Each island has a certain amount to be collected.
Okay cool. I overlooked that. I have been collecting them, so I must be close. Thank you!
Also, once your little dudes are walking to their doom - is there a way to change their mind? I tried giving them sunshine or rainbows. Poor lil' guy.
It was a week or two ago.

Fuck no. Stay away from this game.
I feel like the only reason it got any positive hype from PC players is because maybe it was out during a time when quality games weren't around. It is so far behind the quality of PSVR games that it's laughable.

Same areas. I guess it's possible that social screen psvr capture looks worse than what you see in a headset but i doubt it's that much different. I see huge downgrade in all areas: lack of character + most of environment shadows, mesh quality, lighting, flat ground and environment textures, shaders
Fuckin Jaguar...
