Exciting stuff, looking forward to the media coverage.
PlayStation Access (official Sony YouTube channel) also got theirs today.
Still somewhat dismayed at the lack of marketing so I hope the media does what Sony doesn't, i.e. Promote the thing.
@KilloWertz I'd thought about that and wondered. Yeah that's kinda nasty if a stick drift or something can take out the whole unit. They really ought to sell spares, but I bet they won't. $550 to fix stick drift or a bad trigger.
@Octane I doubt it's more than 1 year in the us. If controllers do break it probably really is bad
After reading reviews for Horizon I think I'll cancel my pre-order for now. While it seems good, it doesn't seem to be killer app, and with a €70 price tag for a digital only game, it's difficult to justify for me.
And with no Astro Bot or other cool VR game to look forward to, I will wait until there's more software available. The tech seems cool, and I'll get it some day, but it's too bad there isn't enough on day one.
@Octane that's fair, I changed my preorder from the Horizon bundle to the standard one as Horizon seems to be a lot of climbing which I find pretty annoying even in VR games. Though I was always much more excited to play GT7, RE Village and Rez in VR anyway, with Switchback being the new game I was looking forward to
Older than I care to remember but have been gaming since owning a wooden Atari 2600 and played pretty much everything inbetween.
@Octane Good approach as unless you are a racing fan or a horror fan then the lineup diminishes considerably, imo. Thankfully I'm both but I still haven't preordered despite being extremely excited for psvr 2 and watching all the reveal vids on YouTube, I'm still waiting for Sony to reveal some sort of roadmap plus I'm in no rush as I still have a psvr 1 backlog. I'm also waiting for more psvr 1 upgrades.
As for horizon, that game was always going to be a "game for all" and because of that it was going to be restrictive for VR veterans, e.g. the combat compromises. Personally I would have preferred a GoW spinoff (or even better make GOW ragnorok a hybrid game) but then , as I say, GoW isn't really a "game for all" because of the violence.
@carlos82@CaptD Horror and racing aren't really my thing. For VR I also bought GT Sport, which I enjoyed, but it isn't a system seller for me. So I'll get GT7 once I get the VR2, but it's not a priority. And yeah, I realise horror is big on VR. I was fine taking the risk with PSVR, because it was a lot cheaper, but for price of PSVR2, I'd like the guarantee that there will be more games up my alley before getting it.
They're surely working on an Astro Bot VR game, so I don't know why they won't reveal it already. It's sometimes nice to have the confirmation, even if it's another year away.
FYI. YouTube streamers over the next few days.
I know Eurogamer is going to be doing a mammoth one on Wednesday and I think (not 100% sure) that PlayStation Access are doing something tomorrow, probably Gt7 but I feel it might be a big stream comprising of lots of games (just a guess).
Obviously there are the Psvr without parole guys as well, assuming they get their headsets as Sony cut them out of the Press loop.
Be sure to avoid all those Re8 spoilers though as I'm sure some of you have been waiting to play it in VR, I know I have.
Happy PS VR2 day, hope you all enjoy your new headsets. @carlos82 I always expected it to be full campaign simply because of the effort required to do a certain mode (mercenaries for example) is, I would imagine, a significant amount of percentage of the work to do the entire game so why not do the whole lot (possible meta/Quest lawsuits aside).
Plus I have faith in Capcom and their VR vision plus I think they know that the VR community expects the entire game.
@carlos82 They've done that with the last 2 games so it isn't really surprising, although to be fair 7 and 8 were already 1st person, while 4 is not (but it does have a Quest VR version). Great news nonetheless.
I suspect RE in VR would be too much for me as I don't really do that well with horror games even on flat screen but I'd be willing to give it a try (I understand there will be a demo or trial for VR Village)
@CaptD It was just how it was initially worded, I'll be playing it normally when it comes out but definitely looking forward to replaying it in VR
@Voltan I did play RE7 in VR but couldn't finish it but that was more down to it not really being designed around VR. Village and RE4 on Quest look much better in that regard and I believe there is a trial too
Oh and as I type this my shipping notification pops up 😁😁😁😁😁
