You should receive it on launch day , my edge was a day late but I think they charged my account a day later than everyone else.My account is now officially £529 lighter. Has anybody ordered anything direct from Sony before? Should I expect to receive it on 22/02, or am I being naive?
I don't think I'll be able to stand watching people play gt7 while I wait for mineMy account is now officially £529 lighter. Has anybody ordered anything direct from Sony before? Should I expect to receive it on 22/02, or am I being naive?
The old one supported it, but they ended up forcing you to have a subscription for it to work after a couple of yearsIs there a media player coming? With sbs support? A browser? I’m hoping for deovr but probly no
I’d love to have plex on this baby (with 3d)… I wouldn’t need my tv anymore.
Only her breasts are hi-res, eye tracking catching another pervert!Low res Aloy
Yeah I’m kinda in the same boat.It needs 10-15 killer apps - must play games that can absorb you for 15 plus hours and make you want to come back to replay. I don't think it has any yet. ..and the form needs to advance to allow more freedom and fewer or softer linear handrails.
I'm aiming for a PSVR2 purchase in a couple of years once the exclusive killer apps are there in sufficient volume.
Lol wut? Are you literally playing in a completely different room?I need more than the 15 foot USB-C cable. Is there any good USB-C extenders?
I think I pre-ordered early December and the money was taken today. They did email me a week or so ago to confirm they would collect the cash from 17/02 onwards, so they are true to their word in that respect.You should receive it on launch day , my edge was a day late but I think they charged my account a day later than everyone else.
Interestingly I haven’t been charged yet for my headset.
When did you pre order and when was the money taken? My friends came out around midnight!
Is your rig really that decent if it doesn't have top of the line VR for under $1500?Yeah I'm gonna stop you right there. I said it was a non-starter for me. I don't need a pseudo-economics lecture about the profit woes of a multibillion dollar multinational corporation. I have no idea, clue or care about the "PC VR market" - I simply am not interested in something, as good as it is, that is only for use on a console that is getting less and less use now that I have a decent PC rig.
And then some of us have plenty of money in the bank paying bills with ease. Sure nkt everyone can afford this, but hopefully 'enough' can.Some peeps are struggling to pay their rent and their bills right now and a lot have lost their jobs due to the current economic crisis, don't be tone deaf on millions of people in western countries that can't afford to heat their house. It's a tough time to launch any piece of tech, but the psvr2 at £560 with horizon in the U.K. is a no to for 99% of the population right now. PSVR was expensive on launch but it was nowhere near the unpalatable price psvr2 is right now, the preorder numbers are a crap fest and they reduced production quotas by half for the year. I cancelled my preorder a few weeks after being "invited" to preorder in the 1st wave because it's not going to sell and much as I love the latest tech gadget I'm actually PLAYING a lot more of my games for the first time in decades and still have quite a backlog of games from the original PSVR if I'm honest, I stretch my wallet here and there for a new game around launch (hogwarts most recently) right now the balance proposition of buying a whole new eco system of games for the headset is too big an investment. I'm happy for those that can afford it but this isn't comparable to any gaming console launch either as both ps5 and series x pushed the limits there and their launch price was a good deal less than this headset
It's a shame the Microsoft / oculus deal that was in play at one point never came to fruition as allowing another manufacturers headset to work with Xbox would have made the market more competitive and also encouraged developers to expand the software selection.
I'm not quite in the vr is doomed category yet, but one of these companies needs to launch a headset at a consumer friendly point.
Apple could still jump in with their headset and it will be huge no doubt when it arrives and could reignite the market, I think we are in the same space that pc vr was when rift and Vive launched, expensive tech new to market that needs to be cheaper for mass adoption
Good luck to Sony, but the actual 1st party software support they gave PSVR when you look at it was probably less than they put into Vita ..
If it does not sell well Sony will abandon it like they did with their failed handhelds. Also it will not get much 3rd party support if the install base is low. But at the end of the day we just have to wait and see how this plays out. I agree that at least Sony is trying to go all out with the tech and made this a better all around headset than the PS VR1.That's absolutely true but... so? That's Sony's problem and obviously they have taken that into account. For those who want high end VR and don't want to spend three times more on PC VR, PSVR2 will be a source of delight for several years to come. Are you concerned that if it will not make enough success they will not make PSVR3? Well, it's possible. Should they do not even try, then? Would be better not even having it now?
That doesn't make any sense. Reality is that the tech is here, now, and we will enjoy it much more than the VR that we already experienced, and probably for much more time (if PSVR1 is still receiving games now, with its old and cluncky tech, and with all the difficulties linked to its limited controls, you can easily imagine how much easier will be for developers to develop proper PSVR2 versions of their games).
Lol wut? Are you literally playing in a completely different room?

Sony took my money yesterday but my shipment is still "pending."
Just checked and mine just shipped as well!Mine has just shipped!!!! They took my money 2 days ago.
Sony needs to keep working with 3rd parties to get full games working in VR like GT7, RE8, and No Mans Sky. This way those devs can spend a million dollars to implement VR into their game and not feel terrible if the install base is under 5 million headsets.
But this is a HUGE reason as to why I want PCVR to start doing better also. This install base needs to grow.

Quest is a terrible pcvr. Even wired it’s still sending compressed video. It looks terrible. Try playing dirt in vr or any darker game.
It’s low hz, compressed, heavy as fuck, clunky with oculus software and steam vr combined. And it’s lcd.
Even rift S was much better for pc.
We have videos showing what's inside the headset and controllers, soon some media site or someone working in that area will have a BoM estimate and we'll know if it's expensive or not.Anybody with a brain should be able to look at the psvr1 controllers and psvr2 controllers and instantly understand the price device. That's not even considering the new headset is a 2 full generations ahead of the psvr1.

It was just an approximation ...8-10 maybe enough for VR. Issue though is that whether we like it or not VR competes against traditional games. So VR experiences have to be able to pull people away from Elden Ring and other deep open worlds you can get lost in for weeks without end. If VR games are too short, too ergonomically displeasing and not very repayable then they won't.The bolded is such a weird request to me. Like what if they have 12 must have games that last on average 8-10 hours? How is that not good enough?

Someone mentioned that yiu can get a 2 meters extension. But he said bigger than that didn't work. But bare in mind different cables and sorts. So by launch you'll get your answerLOL!!! No same room. My PS5 is in my theater room. So the PS5 is in a server rack in the back of the room. It's only 6 feet away from where I sit, but I want to be able to move more than 2 steps before the cord runs out length. If I could get 6 more feet it'll be perfect. But even 3 more feet would be good.
I was hoping the standard cable was going to be 20 feet\6.6 meters.

Payment has been taken but not yet shipped. I’m in the UK and I don’t think they’ll ship until Monday at the earliest.People whose set shipped: when did you order and where are you located?
I pre-ordered this. Never touched vr before, so I hope I didn't make a mistake.
Damn just checked my account... C'mon Sony

This will actually get me to buy GT7 which I've avoided because of always online. Holy hellAs expected an excellent product
Can't wait to try GT7, Horizon, RE8, Moss, Kayak and other games.
