Re: Talking Point: Is It Finally the Right Time to Buy PSVR2?

@specky ha ha - yes that argument was a bit extreme - I really should know better than to post comments after a pub crawl 🤣🤣🤣

I’m personally still enjoying the PSVR2 but am also very disappointed in Sonys “launch it and leave it” approach.- so I can see how it would put people off.
I hope you find a VR platform that works for you 👍

Re: Talking Point: Is It Finally the Right Time to Buy PSVR2?

@jp80 sorry to hear that - I’m as angry as you about the lack of direct support from Sony. Especially astrobot.
I’m still really enjoying my headset but I’m also no blind fanboy and I’m seriously thinking about where I go from here in terms of VR.
It just makes me laugh that exactly the same people pile on with the hate on these PSVR2 articles

Re: Talking Point: Is It Finally the Right Time to Buy PSVR2?

@specky because any basic experience of real life shows that unless you have actually experienced something then it’s very hard to judge it fairly. I have changed my view on many things after having actually tried them.
But if you’re one of those people that believe they are experts after reading a few articles or watching a few you tube videos then nothing I will say will change your view. LMAO indeed…..

Re: New PSVR2 Games Release Dates in 2024

@thefourfoldroot1 Totally agree - this repeating article is a bit of a joke now. Just close it down pushsquare.
I like this site a lot but in terms of vr, we all get our info from more accurate vr sites anyway.

Re: Poll: Can a Game's Brutal Difficulty Put You Off Playing It?

Hamst88

@adge_uk totally agree - I’d also love a difficulty setting for these games but then you just get souls fans shouting at you saying it would ruin the game / wouldn’t be the same. I have no doubt it wouldn’t be exactly the same tough but rewarding experience, but I’m pretty sure it’s something I personally would enjoy.
Kudos to those that can smash these games though - my old thumbs are long past such achievements!! 🤣🤣

Re: PS5's Astro Bot Doesn't Support PSVR2 Because It Was Never Designed to Do So

Hamst88

I guess if they had just said that early and up front it would have avoided all the disappointment for VR fans. I think it’s that blatant snub that has angered so many people that invested in Sonys PSVR2.

As much as I’m loathe to agree with the usual pSVR2 haters (they’ll be here any minute - price too high, DOA, my Quest makes my breakfast…) it’s a pretty sure sign Sony have lost interest in PSVR2.

Hopefully third party games like Behemoth will keep it moving forward

Re: PSVR2's PC Adapter Available on 7th August, Costs $60

Hamst88

Despite the cheeky price, I was quite excited until I read the bit that says pretty much none of the PSVR2 features are supported. ☹️

If I’m spending alot of money on a beefy pc (as I’d want a top experience) I might as well go for a better pc headset as well. When is the quest 4 due out I wonder….

Re: PS Plus Essential Games for June 2024 Announced

Hamst88

@Leeg Yep, their very first “Psvr2 is doomed” article came just 4 weeks or so after its launch!! 🤣🤣 You’ll never guess who wrote that one…

To be fair though, Aaron did an excellent interview on the PS you tube channel with Gamertag VR - a really balanced reflection on its first year - both pros and cons.

Re: Rumour: Full Astro Bot PS5 Game to Be Announced Very Soon

Hamst88

@TrickyDicky99 well despite you making exactly the same point about price that you do on Every. Single. PSVR2 Article 🤣🤣 (no mention of “dead on arrival”?), I would have to agree that if (and as you say it’s still an if at the moment) there is no VR version of this game then that’s a hugely negative message from Sony and would be a big worry.

Re: New PS5 Pro Leak Points to Significant Graphics Push from Sony

Hamst88

Day one for me.

All those running around waving their arms in outrage, please feel free to continue to do so whilst I’m playing on it 😃😃😃

Cudos to those happy to wait another 4 years for the PS6 but as an older gamer, I’m hedging my bets and taking every upgrade while I can still move my thumbs! 🤣🤣

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?

Hamst88

@Yozora146_ Yeah exactly - the controller thing a constant background worry that is just so unnecessary. I full on wince when I let one of my reckless friends have a go!! 🤣🤣

With the warranty for day one purchases running out in uk / Europe, I was so convinced it was going to be part of the birthday announcement. Guessing it’s some sort of production line issue - but it is getting ridiculous now

Re: Poll: What Do You Think of PSVR2, One Year Later?

Hamst88

Really love my PSVR2 as think it’s:-
1) super comfy (for me anyway)
2) got some amazing games
3) love the oled
4) the cord doesn’t bother me at all as I’d rather have better graphics.and not worry about battery life
5) Already got a massive backlog (as I’ve never played crossover games like vertigo 2)

But as others above have said, you can’t hide from the fact that:-
1) Not enough PSVR1 conversions
2) Not enough direct Sony support
3) No vr media player
4) WHY ON EARTH can’t I buy separate controllers???? So annoying!!!

Looking at getting a gaming PC to run in parallel with PS5 so very excited to see how the pc support for PSVR2 pans out. Quest 3 is the other option obviously.

Re: Rec Room Dev 'Can't Justify' a PSVR2 Port

Hamst88

@TrickyDicky99 And I can list a bunch of people that are far more positive about PSVR2 - GamertagVR (who you’ve conveniently dropped), PSVR2withoutparole, Myles Dyer, Polish Paul, etc - what does that prove exactly? Nothing. You can find a YouTuber / website to back up any view you want. Only the next couple of years will show who’s right.

Would I class any of the people you listed as trolls? Absolutely not. But then they don’t go onto a PlayStation site and post the same negative comments about PSVR2 over and over and over on pretty much Every. Single. Article.

Re: Rec Room Dev 'Can't Justify' a PSVR2 Port

@TrickyDicky99 @charliechoochoo Ah, here you are again TrickyDicky with the same old pcvr fanboy rhetoric 🤣🤣 Always makes me smile given you’ve said previously you don’t even own a psvr2.

Glad you’re a fan of GamertagVR though - same here - not sure which video you were referencing as the link has been removed but have you watched his recent video about making a bet re psvr2? he talks a lot about the over-negativity towards PSVR2 and about people desperate to slag it off all the time (hmmm, who does that sound like???). But that one doesn’t quite fit your normal negative stance does it so no doubt you’ll ignore that one.

I do think the UEVR mod looks amazing and am currently saving up for a beefy pc so I can experience both psvr2 and pcvr but I won’t be constantly going onto sites just to attack one headset or the other.
