Apparently the light glare during night racing in your rearview mirror is realistic in GT7. I wonder could eye tracking apply depth of field, so if you're looking through your windscreen the dash could be out of focus as you're not looking at it. That would be pretty cool.
Looks like GameStop have stock available if their website is to be believed. Be interesting to hear from staff if they're seeing much interest.
Bit strange to give exclusivity to GameStop though, I know the US has some exclusivity deals but considering our lack of game shops here it doesn't make much sense and not something we normally have. No reason the shop dedicated to selling Funkopops and merch should get dibs over Smyths?
Yeah, I tested it aginst a car I'd IRL (an RX8) and it was identical
Ah yes, it just updated. But not a given that psvr1 work with the psvr2
Gave gran turismo a spin with my wheel setup. Hopped in the Mk7 golf GTi as I used to own one, it did feel quite like being back in the car. The image quality is not as sharp as I was expecting though, this is my first VR headset so wasn't really sure what to expect either.
Synth Riders is working with PSVR2, just had a go at lunch
I tried to set it up with PSVR + PS5. Quickly found out the PS5 functionality for this is paywalled to a crowd called RADtv who have a downloadable app in the PS5 TV section. Instructions stated you can rip your 3d blurays (or acquire elsewhere) then sideload via USB if you pay a monthly sub. Was a complete rigmarole as you also had to mess with metadata and naming conventions on your rips so gave up in the end and setup a plex server for Quest 2.
A PSVR2 media player for all 3d formats would be amazing. The 8k 360 videos on Quest are very immersive but not the sharpest as the picture is obviously spread 360. PSVR2 with the eye tracking rendering could take it to the next level. E.g. you can click and drag this video with your mouse to get an idea of the 360. Works really well in a VR headset: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0zXZIgnub6w
Anyone looking at dyschronia? reviews seem decent
No, and I don't believe it's in the pipeline either. You would be hard pressed to find a tv made in the last 10 years that supports 3D playback and it probably costs too much wrt licencing the required software from the Blu-Ray Forum to bother supporting it on PSVR2.
Have they switched on the ability to play 3D films on PS5 yet? I got 3D Blu-Ray Dr. Strange still waiting on the shelf!
No man's sky isn't compatible for psvr2 yet, nor is synth riders
New State of Play Thursday at 9.
GameStop exclusive alright but I'd say if you went in tomorrow you'd get one. Unlikely by the weekend as good reports get out.
I believe GS have an exclusive in Ireland
It won't be astrobot, it says partners. I was hoping they would be immediate releases in the SOP but scheduled for later in the year.
What are the chances of picking one of these up with our preorder.. didn't want to order from GameStop but looks like no one else stocking ATM. Wills Smyth's get these in do you think
New State of Play thursday with 5 PSVR2 games being announced along with 3rd party/indie/Suicide Squad stuff.
Pleeeease ALYX and Astro Bot!!
+1 on PistolWhip, probably gonna be 1st game I play tomorrow. Have a few hours tomorrow evening but likely be the weekend then before I get chance to properly dive into PSVR2 world
I second this. Superb addictive gameplay. Personally would have it ahead of beat saber. I see quite a few games getting a free upgrade including Pistol Whip.
For sure. Not often the grown ups get that Christmas morning feeling! 😂 And yes please post some reviews.
Gt7 is unbelievable on vr, truly mindblowing. Especially the open cockpit cars like the old Honda that's just been added on the update
Mine too. Stuck in work though so won't get a chance to set it up until tomorrow.
Pistol Whip is a must buy for anyone that hasn't already.
I'm going to get one tomorrow.
Can't resist GT7. Guy from Digital Foundry said it was unbelievable and I'm sure RE Village is the same.
GT and Village both updated today, kayak is sitting with a countdown clock.
Dropped in the door at home earlier this morning, but will probably not have a look until after or perhaps even tomorrow what with work and football in the way.
Not sure if games are being released until the 22nd anyway, certainly noticed a countdown to midnight on one title on the dash the other day. Perhaps the patched titles may be available already though or getting patched today (GT etc).
My local one had them in the back room last Friday, just the standard one. She said they were expecting the horizon bundles yesterday.
Picking up from store tomorrow too. Have a few bits to trade tho so worth it to knock off a few quid. It's comforting at least that they should definitely be waiting in store given there posting out already, had fears of driving up to be met by blank faces from the GS employees
Damn, I didn't think it was worth the risk with Gamestop so I chose to collect tomorrow.
Ah lads, enjoy yer vr today, let us know how ye find it!
Mine is out for delivery this morning!
PSVR2 has hit the An Post depot. Very likely I'll have it tomorrow. The one time I don't want it early 😅. At least the postman is good enough to leave it in the shed. I've had DHL leave my steam deck on the front wall in the rain for anyone to snatch.
I bought a ps5 last year and have turned it on once. Bought formula one game, the only game that ever really captivates me is GTA.
