Re: PSVR2 Is Playable at GDC and Is Already Blowing Minds

As for AAA VR... of course Sony has big plans. I look forward to their plans coming to fruition.

But the smaller studio games that are killing it on Quest.. wireless has a lot to do with it.

A game called Nock being a prime example. A $9.99 VR sports game with a healthy multiplayer base two weeks after releasing.

It's Rocket League in VR with bow & arrows. Needs to be played to be fully appreciated.

It's up there with Sparc as one of the greatest VR sports games ever made. Already. After only two weeks in the wild.

My point? A PSVR version (or PSVR 2 version) could not & would not be as immersive & plain outright FUN while wired to the console.

So while I patiently await PSVR 2, I don't fool myself into believing a wired connection is no big deal.

You should want to see Sony follow Quest's business model.

Fantastic refund policy. Of which Sony has... none.

Referral credit. Again, of which Sony has.. none.

Completely free online multiplayer. 'Nuff said about that.

Sony should follow Quest's business model & then some.

Who told you only official $80 cable would work? Plenty of $20-$30 cables out there working just fine.

Sony has an uphill battle to get another foothold in VR. Wireless is indeed the future. Cloud gaming for VR is already happening & happening well. Sony will be behind the times at launch.

Here's one reason Sony will never lead in home VR... refund policy. Pretty much non-existent from Sony.

Meanwhile, Quest 2 users (PCVR as well) can play any game for two hours/two weeks & then refund.

Re: Next-Gen PSVR Controllers for PS5 to Use DualSense Tech

It's great to have this announcement. Excellent news. But still going with a Move type controller is quite disconcerting. Hopefully that's not the case.

Does everyone still want to play VR in the dark? Having used Touch controllers for the last two years has ruined me on the Moves.

I'm very cynical, obviously.

Gran Turismo 7 being delayed until 2022 will surely mean VR support included. Hopefully.

Re: Job Listings Renew Speculation Regarding Virtual Reality Horizon Spin-Off

@daddycool197 Of course. Most definitely. The questions are... when? At what price point?

Beyond those two questions.. PSVR 2 will need wireless capabilities to compete.

When plugged into PS5 it will need to be as close to PCVR as possible but also be able to play lesser games wirelessly.

I lean towards Sony doing what they need to do to make that happen. But I also lean towards Sony being much too late to wireless VR.
