I have the cash for PSVR and would buy one in an instant if I knew it was definitely for me. Hence my excitement when I saw that GAME were now letting you try it out. So I've just gone up to my local GAME expecting to try it, find myself suitably wowed and buy one there and then. However, I didn't expect them to be charging £5 for a five minute demo, or £10 for fifteen minutes. Scumbags. If I bite I'll just order from shopto or wait for Amazon to restock.

 

My local game aren't even doing that.  Just charging for some stupid forza fastest lap thing.  I would love to try it if anyone lives near stevenage and wants to invite me round for a demo.  I'm house trained honest ;)

Not being able to find Move controllers anywhere is dampening my enthusiasm hugely right now. 2 of the 3 games I have bought so far basically require them to be awesome (Batman and Until Dawn). GOOD MOVE BUDDY.

 

If anyone is in Manchester and has any spare they don't need for a couple of days, let me know! In return, you are welcome to come play PSVR.

Is this even fucking legal? Surely any software they show will need royalties paying to them. I'm not having a good day so in the mood to complain and stir the nest. What games could you choose from. I will start by writing to and tweeting publishers of said games plus Sony. Maybe they have hag royalty structure in place but you can't just profit off other people's work scot free. Cunts

Just finished Arkham VR. It really is something else. I'd consider myself a pretty big batman fan (though probably not, on the crazy comic-con fandom scale), and I absolutely loved it.

 

Incredible spending time in the Gotham you've come to know and love in the franchise. Just standing in a horrible alleyway feels so much more dangerous and oppressive than you'll ever feel playing any of the other games. Superb.

 

Felt properly suited up while playing it in my onesie.

Anyone who played this and was nonplussed by the whole thing - dead inside.

Had a good sesh on Driveclub VR this safty, so much fun.

 

Had my first VR indicent, tried the passenger race replay and was enjoying looking out the side window, through the back window at the opposition as manoeuvers were made.

Leaned forward to get a closer look at the car in front and twatted my self against the steering wheel.

 

 

Only prob I have playing is forgetting where the buttons are when you are effectively blind to the real world.

Had a similar thing today. Was playing London Heist, went to open a virtual drawer and burned myself on an actual radiator. :)

I bought Bound this afternoon - the game received a VR patch a few days ago. It looks absolutely stunning in VR, definitely worth a try. 

 


Bound is incredible. About to do the last level - only stopped because it was getting too hot inside the headset.

 

Gonna dig up the thread for it once I finish it. It really is absolutely amazing. Haven't felt like this about a game since Journey.

I bought it and was waiting for the VR camera patch. Is that what you're talking about?

 

Nope, just the patch enabling VR.

 

On Neogaf, one of the devs has been talking about the design problems they're having with the camera. People want it to be like the one in Robot Rescue, but apparently the challenges are huge for a game like Bound. It seems uncertain as to whether the camera patch will happen at present, but the team has clearly been trying very hard and experimenting with different solutions.

Please do tell me to F off if these vids are annoying to post in here, but I made a daft one about the top 5 scares in PSVR. You get to see my office/house utility room, get to experience me struggling with technology, and also an amusing bonus scene at the end

 

EDIT: There are spoilers for Batman VR in this vid. The rest of the stuff is from the demo disc, but it does show what's happening in the games.

Great video, but you might want to warn about spoilers.
