    Played an hour of best saber last night having not played for about 2 years.

    Forgot how good it was.

    Seems the sense controllers are a little off though. Hopefully they add the option to readjust them.

    Arc blocks and stacked blocks are a nice addition in the Queen pack.

    Yeah, it's still Beat Saber but the sabers are like gun sabers with the way you've to hold them. Not sure if it's better or worse overall, but it feels worse as I keep missing.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,633 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    The inevitable happened... sat on my controller after playing minigolf for some reason you need both controllers in view so I put it on seat... Unless am missing something? Lucky enough it just cracked open at the joint so it can be snapped back together..


    If it was broke I couldn't even buy a new controller for it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,775 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    I didn't even cop that you can't buy replacement VR Sense controllers... Surely they'll be available soon?! They did say they wouldn't be available separately "at this time", so one would imagine they will be soon. Stuck with sending it back to Sony for repair for now.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 376 ✭✭MikeRyan87


    Serious lag in beat saber when the red walls appear until they leave..hopefully gets patched soon as is causing alot of misses.

    Yeah, there's something just not right with BS at the moment. Will wait for an update. But I also remembered why I stopped. No new music that suits my taste, and the last few free tracks are on the stupid side of hard so not enjoyable. It needs to start dropping a lot more different tracks, because these celebrity ones are mostly not for me. BS would have died long ago if it wasn't for the PC modding.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,633 ✭✭✭WarZoneBrother


    Controller working fine for now anyways ...

    I purchased Nock but am not enjoying it at all can't wrap my heads around controls would rather be fit to move with joysticks unless am missing something...


    Beat Saber was purchased from the Turkish store I assume any DLC I buy from Irish store won't work? Would have to repurchase the game again just for DLC which would be annoying

    PSVR2 needs something big, like Alyx or Boneworks. Or a new Astro.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,537 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    Res Evil 8 is supposed to be great though? And the upcoming RE4?

    RE7 was the killer app for PSVR 1 iirc, so maybe lightning strikes twice

    Would you say it's worth it even with the gamestop discount?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,775 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Will definitely give RE4 a go in VR at some point, haven't played it since the original so should be good. But not really interested in those games in general.

    It's worth it if you like it, if that makes sense. If you're on the fence, I don't think it's worth the cost yet. There's nothing really new for it, just better versions of PSVR1 games imo. Saying that, I haven't played all the games available so it's really a personal thing if it's worth it, which is no good to someone asking!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,021 ✭✭✭✭duploelabs


    I would've thought RM2, Gt7, Horizon Call of the mountain are proper next gen vr games



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,775 ✭✭✭✭Potential-Monke


    Haven't tried RM2 yet, tis still new I believe. Horizon, I mean to get back to, but there's so much climbing and it's not fun. Stunning looking all the same. GT7 is amazing, but im faster outside VR and its making me want to spend more money to get a proper seat/stand for the G29.

    Nothing so far that makes me think VR2 is worth the entry cost. A Superhot 2, Alyx or Boneworks to really show off the power of it is what is needed. May buy RM2 tomorrow. Or I could just really want to play Alyx/Boneworks.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 376 ✭✭MikeRyan87


    Glad to see Undead Citadel is coming to PSVR2 at some stage this year.

    Looks like a day one buy.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 376 ✭✭MikeRyan87


    Synapse hands on previews seem promising. Looks like a day one as well.




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,537 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    I like the art style



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 7,394 ✭✭✭jj880


    Out tomorrow. Been waiting on this one since 20k leagues under the sea.

    Edit: Walkabout Mini Golf new course. Jules Verne - Journey To The Centre Of The Earth.

    GameStop are closing down and have the controller charger down to 35. Very worthwhile purchase.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 376 ✭✭MikeRyan87


    They have them down to 25e now but the Galway store is closed now.


    Wanderer coming to PSVR2.

    Looks great..never played original on PSVR1.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,835 ✭✭✭phill106


    I got it for 5 in the william street limerick branch on the final day :)



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,380 ✭✭✭Grumpypants




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,537 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    I'd say there will be some crazy discounts toward the end of the week



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,380 ✭✭✭Grumpypants


    Synth riders is a tenner. Website closes at 4pm on Wednesday.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,537 ✭✭✭✭mrcheez


    I was in there at the weekend and PS4 prices were 50%, Switch 40% off.. and now they are 60% and 50% off respectively.

    I guess I could have saved another few euro by waiting, but anyway looks like they are dropping them by 10% or so each day.

    The shop I was at in Blanch said they were closing next Saturday so you could prob get major physical discounts if you headed into a physical store next weekend.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,021 ✭✭✭✭duploelabs


    Hubris was supposedly released today but it's only showing up as 'add to wishlist' in my store, what gives?



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 376 ✭✭MikeRyan87


    Hubris worth a buy or wait for a sale?

    PSVR 1 is down to 55 euro from CEX, without camera and games but according to Hotukdeals it comes with the processor unit.



    You will need an adapter to play it on PS5 which I presume they're still sending them out if you use this link on the Sony website:



    Or else you can buy 3rd party ones for about 15 quid from Amazon.

    And don't forget the PS4 camera.
