Your health isn't something to roll the dice on. David better call in, just in case.
So, does anyone know where the VR experiences will be showing up on the store?

is Eve Valkyrie any good? worth a full game purchase or should the demo suffice?
I so want a space game, not sure if thats it.

Try the demo, purchase if you like that? Sounds like people are mixed on it to be honest, at least as far as it being a full-priced game.

yeah that's what the sensible part of me is saying, the non sensible part of me is saying, buy it, its also saying buy every VR game you can now so Thurs and Friday will be awesome.
Is there a demo on the PC will it be indicative of the full game?
its going to be a hard week...

My amazon preorder from March was pushed back to the 17th due to stock issues. I have another preordered with Zavvi from march that i preordered as a camera bundle which i only purchased for an eventuality like this thank god. So once payment is taken ill be cancelling that amazon one. I was not happy. As i trust amazon. I do not trust zavvi
Zavvi? Enjoy playing your PSVR next June!

I got Eve Valkyrie during the Amazon pricing error for $20, so even if it's not that great, no biggie. I'll probably go ahead and pull the trigger on Until Dawn: Rush of Blood because it seems to be getting good buzz and maybe it'll support the overall series, too. I think that's all I am going to get for now. I'll have the demo and VR Worlds, and VR stuff for Tomb Raider and COD afterward. If the demo for Here They Lie is good I'll maybe buy that as well.

Yep my thoughts exactly. unfortunately these are my two only choices. Flipping Amazon pushing me back. Surely they didnt sell out in 1 day? Ha
Playroom VR trophies are up, surprising to see 41 trophies with platinum!

Are you sure this isn't because you've selected standard shipping? You need expedited shipping for it to come on release day, standard will have an arrival date of the 17th.
I pre-ordered on the 30th September and was confirmed it would come on release day a few days ago.

Nice, Eve: Valkyrie all set.
Yeah I'm not sure I'll love the purposely non-smooth animation but visually it looks really cool.
Nice that the EU blog made an extra post for some of the experiences, the US one should do that too.

Considering I'm supposed to have this in my hands in 4 days, I've not hear a peep from Game since pre-ordering in March. I spoke to their helpline last week who said they'd email me within a 7 days of delivery to confirm payment methods etc but nothing. Not even an email saying it's been delayed or when payment will be taken.
Yeah i'm in the same boat, heard sweet sod all from GAME since i preordered it when it went up.
I didn't want to keep the GAME preorder but i missed the opportunity to grab an Amazon one, since i was busy at work when preorders went up
. So had to keep the GAME one.

Nope says shipped on the 17th. Im phoning up lol
Yeah, silence on my order too. If I don't hear anything by later this afternoon I might email to make sure nothing's up.

Cool. Hope you hear something. I was on hold for 30 minutes last time I rang, so I can't be doing with that. If i hear anything I'll post it here.

Order confirmed to be shipping on the 12th... Not long now.

My other order on Amazon says on the order details page that it's shipping 13th and arriving 14th, but I have multiple emails from Customer Service agents who have said it will definitely without fail arrive on the 13th. Don't know whether to email again to make sure, but I don't want to be that crazy person.

We are very excited, yes!
We will include supersampling support in The Assembly for PlayStation Pro, yes, which will make everything look a bit clearer.

Amazon UK, checked my order today, and the progress bar listed shipping on 12th. It's delivery for 13th, expedited.

Good to hear. Thanks. I might buy the game but not play till the patch and when u have the pro. Is this something that is relatively easy for you to patch and release close to the pro launch?

How come US PSN doesn't have a VR Games section like EU PSN? Are they really sending the whole system to die already? Have to dig deep in the game library to find VR compatible titles...

Supersampling support isn't a separate patch, but rather something that's included in The Assembly from launch. The feature is turned on (or turned higher, to be more accurate) automatically if the game detects that it's running on a PS4 Pro.

Yeah I don't get it, SIEA needs to keep up. There's going to be a lot of games make them easier to find.
Japan has a VR section too.

I just can't trust an online seller with a day one console release. Strictly bricks and mortar stores for me. Will be heading to my local GAME for the midnight launch.
59 hours to go.

Is Pro support a requirement now? I've been curious how many launch games will take advantage, considering those leaked development docs said that support would be required from October.

That's interesting to hear. I was wondering if there would be native improvements with playing games on the pro, without patching.

I already commented on this, no idea why this is happening. I've never heard of Best Buy not having preorders for games, especially on big platforms like PS4
Not sure if it's all of them but they appear to have some games up for pre-order - http://www.bestbuy.com/site/playsta...es/pcmcat748302046791.c?id=pcmcat748302046791

Not saying they don't have any games, but most big titles that are VR only for launch are missing: battlezone, eve Valkyrie, until dawn rush of blood and driveclub VR
They have batman and rigs though. Not sure why they aren't listed. I'm going to stop into a store on or after release day to see if they just happen to carry these games, or at least ask if they will ever get them. I want to get my 20% off!
I had 2 preorders on Best Buy, one with the bundle and one without. Just tested my old PS3 Move controllers and they're no bueno so cancelled the unit only one. Now the question is can I use the old Move AR-Weapon style hookup with Farpoint or do I need to buy their revamped AR setup?
