And The Last of Us Part I, Ratchet and Clank, God of War, Astro's Playroom, Horizon Forbidden West, Destiny 2, MLB The Show, etc. Where are mah hybrid games, Sony?I really want Spiderman 2 to have a vr mode
My HonsVR inserts have been great. Things seem less blurry especially the edges compared to glasses.I find it much easier since getting eyes tested and getting some vr prescription inserts. Pop the headset on now and I'm more or less in the zone.
The advantage the PSVR2 has is the PS5 powers it, which is like comparing a GBA (Quest 3) to a, well, PS5. There's a fucking canyon the size of a moon between the two devices power.
The sad thing is the PSVR2 has all that power behind it and shit for all to use it with. Meanwhile the Quest 3 will see 100s of fun looking "exclusives" which everyone on the PSVR2 will wish they had.
Then for every 100 Quest 3 games we'll get 1 RE4 VR Edition type game, which probably won't even be possible on the Quest 5.
Breath of new life? Seriously it has been 6 months since launch and just from Sony we got Gran Turismo and Horizon, also RE Village and the best version of RE4 is coming out soon. Lots of good games coming out till December as well.To be honest, it is kind of lost. It's facing a stand alone headset launching in a month that has better lenses and a lot of other quality of life imrovements, and it's lacking AAA software to drive it forward.
It needs a big price drop and some big name game announcement to breath in some new life. Otherwise its possible it will do even worse than psvr1.
None of that takes away from how good it is overall or the fun you guys are having, it's just a tough sell to casual ps5 owners as is.
Maybe the quest 3 pro will have foveated rendering, eye tracking, oled panel, and a decent hardware that can run games on the ps4 level...I don't think the canyon is as big as suggested. Between the screen door effect, sweet spot, and lense quality, some of the graphics advantage is diminished.
As to the power difference it's not quite as large as you are implying, the new snapdragon is 3.7 teraflops. Sure you do gain some back with foveated rendering.
But something like re4 should be possible.
Anyhow, maybe the answer isn't keep on as is, maybe a psvr2 se with pancake lenses and a bigger sweet spot, tweak the oled panel a bit, a price drop, and sort of relaunch with God of war vr or ratchet and clank vr is in order.

Facing a standalone headset so what? You are clearly diminishing all the psvr 2 strengths as if it the quest 3 was a huge step up, and its graphics won't came close to what's possible on the ps 5.
Quest 2 perf was behind ps4 so Quest 3 being 2x performance of Q2 change not that much, still very slow. Also looking into No mans sky example: foeveated rendering makes massive diff and its not available on Q3.I don't think the canyon is as big as suggested.

The point is that it isn't a traditional standard console: it's VR, which is a niche, which cannot sustain big budgets projects. It has to be purchased knowing that it will not allow to have a steady stream of big titles, and that it will rather allow for selected, but more unforgettable than flat gaming, gaming experiences. While having at the same time a strong stream of smaller titles, among which there seem to be several gems.Yes it's only been 6 months, but if held to a traditional standard for a console entertainment device, what's the next big game? Re4 isn't it. Where is the next AAA exclusive to drive sales? The show of Sony support? They don't have to come out this year but why nothing at all announced?
Honestly, quest 3 has the same issue. It's not going to sell as well as the quest 2 despite its hardware improvemts. But it will take a big chunk of psvr2's market between its stand alone functionality and ability to hook to a pc.
I say go for it. VR isn't my go to but I'm so glad I have both Sony headsets and the PSVR2 library is legit stacked and only getting better. The coming months are gonna give us some (hopefully) amazing games. Hellsweeper, 7th Guest, Vertigo 2, Bulletstorm, Vampire: The Masquerade: Justice, Madison VR. More too, just can't remember the names.I'm on the fence about whether buying PSVR2 or not.
I've heard so many good things about how the experiences of VR games on this headset and the NMS patch that recently came out. But I'm worried if it will continue to receive plenty of games in the years to come. I can afford it, fortunately, but it still quite the spending if I end up only playing like 5 games on it.
Say, if worst comes to happen and everyone abandons PSVR2 in like a year or 2 (hopefully not), how is it playing non VR games on it (cinematic mode I think it's called). Is it a good experience still? Would anyone say it's comparable to playing and watching media in front of a 4k TV in regards to image quality?
The PSVR2 library is already great though. If all you want are first party Sony games then yea, it's lacking but I have roughly 25 PSVR2 titles and they're all solid, only a few I would l consider meh.Yes it's only been 6 months, but if held to a traditional standard for a console entertainment device, what's the next big game?

There's also Foglands and Journey to foundation, plenty of great games till December...I say go for it.

Check out the PSVRwithoutparole YouTube channel. Dude does an amazing job with keeping the community updated on news, etc.
Also, VR is one of those things that feels really awkward at first but the more you play, the more engaged you get and it starts to feel natural. I've never regretted my decision to get both headsets.

I'm wondering the same. I have the PSVR1 version for some reason, so a free upgrade qould be awesome lol. Paper Beast is gorgeous and unique, I'm dying to finally be able to play it.Paper Beast was pretty great on PSVR1. If they can get the most out of the visuals on PSVR2, this could pretty special.
Does anyone know if it's a free upgrade?
I think it's complete madness to more or less rely solely on 1st party output, for any console. Of course Sony makes great games but there's so many great games in general whether it be flat or VR. This whole measuring stick mind set of 1st party being the definitive factor when it comes to overall quality is pure bollocks to me.Aside from Spider man 2 what's the next Sony's big AAA for the Ps 5?
Sony has been very quiet lately we don't even know what's in store for its flat games.
RE 4 it's one the best games ever made. Thus, it's really hard to state that it's not a big deal coming to vr, especially the remake version with much better graphics...I think it's complete madness to more or less rely solely on 1st party output, for any console.

And acting like RE4 in VR isn't a big deal? RE is the reason I bought both headsets and continue to get new consoles. Village is arguably the best VR game there is and RE4 could be even better.

Looks like I'm pulling the trigger.
My first . I did try my friends PSVR1 many years ago and I was blown away by the immersion, but the graphics let it down.Is it your first VR system? It hits so hard if it is! If not, just keep expectations in check, it's not perfect by any means.
Nice. Be sure to post some impressions and reach out if you need help with finding games you want to play. Regardless of what some people say, the PSVR2 library is really great and only going to get better.Looks like I'm pulling the trigger.
Then, first of all, unless you discover that you are not prone to motion sickness, take your time, starting with static experiences, and only VERY gradually increase movement range and time. Takes time, but once you are free to move as you wish without discomfort, it's like being free to move in other worlds.My first . I did try my friends PSVR1 many years ago and I was blown away by the immersion, but the graphics let it down.
If you can I highly recommend buy prescription insert lenses for the psvr 2. I got mine at Honsvr and it makes quite a difference!Has anyone had any problems with quality control with these head units? Also I wear glasses and my prescription prevents me from getting contact lenses, will this dramatically reduce my experience? I remember wearing glasses on my friends PSVR1 and it didn't bother me.
Welcome! Hopefully you will have a blast like I'm still having, it is absolutely great despite it's shortages. Though I had some previous experience (Quest 2 and Rift S), PSVR2 was the first headset I bought and quickly became very used to it.Looks like I'm pulling the trigger.
I really rather just use my glasses. Is it not as good with glasses as I'll cancel my order.If you can I highly recommend buy prescription insert lenses for the psvr 2. I got mine at Honsvr and it makes quite a difference!
Enjoy! I just got mine about 3 weeks ago and fucking love it. Its my first VR headset so I've been super impressed, I played the original PSVR a bit but this is a lot better to me.Looks like I'm pulling the trigger.
I wear glasses and bought some ring inserts on amazon to protect the VR lenses, works great for me.I really rather just use my glasses. Is it not as good with glasses as I'll cancel my order.
MUST OWNSLooks like I'm pulling the trigger.
Link please. Is this what you use?I wear glasses and bought some ring inserts on amazon to protect the VR lenses, works great for me.
Don't sleep on Organ Quarter. It's indie and feels like you're inside a PSX game, graphics and all but man, legit one of the best survival horror games I've ever played. The tiny team absolutely nailed it. OST is God-tier as well. Relatively cheap too and has been on sale a few times. Add it to the wishlist!Enjoy!

Favorite games so far, Pistol Whip, videos really don't do it justice, a stupidly simple fun game and great for developing your VR legs.
Red Matter 2 is the first game I've played all the way through to completion and I loved it. Very pretty, great atmosphere, some really stunning moments and I personally really enjoyed the story and puzzles, great use of VR. It did give me motion sickness the first couple times I played it so I'd play a bit and quit and come back to it.
Synapse, just wow, really cool art style and one of the best power fantasy games I think I've ever played. Being able to grab someone with one hand and literally the rag doll toss them through the air is amazing, and you're doing that while shooting another person in the face. Grabbing grenades midair and tossing them back, picking up blocks and moving them around to block bullets, picking up a guy and bringing them right up in front of you to shotgun in the face, just so good. I'm not a big rogue lite kinda guy but I have seriously enjoyed this game.
Walking Dead, one of the most immersive games I've played so far. Bashing zombies with a frying pan is both hilarious and terrifying when they stack up on you! I do find this game stressful though and so I have not put as much time into it as I thought I would. Its really well done but I just hate feeling stressed out when I'm playing a game.
GT7, I haven't really played many racing games over the last few years and really didn't expect this one to grab me but I bought it on the recommendation of pretty much every PSVR2 owner and its stellar and thrilling and an absolute blast.
Resident Evil Village is gorgeous, it also freaks me out to where I have not been able to play very much cause its just stressful. I finished Red Matter 2 though so I've put it back in the rotation and will suffer through it haha
Oh and After the Fall has been fun playing with my brother, its like a left for dead clone, though not even close to the quality of left for dead, but still a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to Arizona Sunshine 2 by the same devs later this year. I'm looking at Crossfire as something else to play coop, just came out this week and reviews seem ok.
Most anticipated title by far is behemouth, same people who did walking dead so I have fairly high expectations.
Link please. Is this what you use?

Anything else you recommend? I'm pretty open to all genre's, I forgot to mention I also have No Mans Sky and Mini Golf, just haven't had much time in either so I don't feel comfortable recommending them to people yet.

Do it! Among my favorite PSVR2 games, such a brilliant game to play with friends.Demeo is almost half price at 45% off right now. Am tempted.
