Re: PS4 Title DriveClub Decorating Project Morpheus with Tyre Treads

@MoleZandor I wasn't suggesting at all that it was just to replace the right stick or that it was a bad use of the hardware. I just think that with Project Morpheus just in prototype stages and Drive Club being in development for a long time already, I don't see it being worth delaying further to add this functionality, especially when Project Morpheus isn't going to be out for a long time, and when it does it will have plenty of normal racing games that work with it, and plenty of racing games built specially for it.

Those games will be developed with that in mind, whereas Drive Club was probably in development before they knew they were going ahead with Project Morpheus. This is probably what led to the sickness feeling described in that article, being in a VR headset in an environment that wasn't built for VR is likely to have some problems like that.

I do agree moving your head to check the mirrors would feel great but it's something that will happen anyway and I just don't think it would be worth further delaying Drive Club for.

@SimonAdebisi If you just imagine using the headset while playing Drive Club, it's very easy to see what he means. Sitting in the driver's seat and turning your head to look out the windows to your side is literally all the headset could offer this game.

Not only would you not be able to see anything when doing this at high speed, but you would pretty much crash instantly if you tried doing it anywhere but on a long straight.

Most racing games these days let you look to the side or behind with a flick of the right stick, this is quicker, more intuitive, and you can flip straight back to looking forwards by letting go of the stick.

I think Project Morpheus should only be used with games it can improve, or games that can only be made with the technology. IT wouldn't add anything to Drive Club and so I think this is a good decision.

Does anyone know if, as a PS+ member that won't have a PS4 on launch day, can I "purchase" these games on the browser store to download when I get my PS4, or do I risk missing them?

I know you can do this with PS3 games of course but I wondered if purchasing PS4 games was blocked until you linked your PSN account to one.
