Yes but it depends on the game. Tumble VR blocks video clips for some reason but you can still take screenshots. SportsBar supports both.
Rigs and Eve are both on the demo disk.
I would wait and try them. Frankly, I would get everything digital as having to take of the headset to switch discs is shitty, especially if you have the headset on perfectly and don't wanna mess it up.
Finally got to play RIGs again. Felt a little rusty, but that's ok. Here's a little highlight.
Will add annotations and gifs later
Added fun little annotations
oh alright! thanks

That's amazing news! So the Jackal VR game is a separate free download?!
Although EVE Valkyrie was on my day 1 list for a long time, I just couldn't stomach that price. Shame since the demo is great (but short).
Maybe Jackal Assault will scratch my space cockpit game itch. If not maybe Space Rift (still due November?) will...
Otherwise the long wait for an Elite: Dangerous port or Colony Wars reboot continues...

Just started playing rigs, what a fun game!
Can anyone tell me how online play is? Are matches easy to find?
I assume you need ps+ which I currently don't have, but I am thinking of subbing just for online play.

I'm in the same boat, sadly. It pains me to say that I cancelled my Pro pre-order; I'm thinking that I'll get one when Horizon comes out, but having bought a PSVR and having looked at what's on the kids' Christmas lists, I just can't really afford it at the moment.
RIGS is better for single player. I'd get that.
Soooo is there anyway to get Battlezone for around $40 without waiting? I neeed this game.
Alo looking to pick up another game. Currently own
-PSVR Worlds
-Arkham VR
-Thumper
I really want a shooter (specifically Battlezone) and Im a huge baby so not looking for horror. Tethered seemed neat, but so did Windlands. I dont like RTSs soo Tethered seems out, and Windlands looks great, but pricey given the presentation.
Gaf, what do I doooooo?

Rigs is fun other than the dumbass ai teammates. You play as a mech and shoot other mechs, and there is different game modes. I really like it, try the demo.
Thumper is my favorite so far, batman is great as well. The little of the rush of blood demo I played was super cool, I bought it on Amazon for 15 bucks but am waiting for it to be restocked.

That CoD Jackal thingy is that the space scene we saw at E3 conference? If so, f yeah!!
And yeah, still no new Colony Wars game in sight, such a shame with VR and space games resurrection...I'd buy a Pro instantly Sony!

That is really awesome news. Thanks.
Rigs is too pricey....might do Rush how did you get it for $15?
It it free for all IW PS4 owners or ALL PS4 owners?
I keep telling myself Colony Wars has to happen. Sony knows that cockpit games are perfect for VR and EVE is already a "stumble" in the sense that it's primarily a multi-player game, so there's a vacuum right now for a traditional star-fighter game with a decent single player campaign. Whoever does it first is going to have the market all to themselves for a while, especially if the campaign is a quality one.

And also G-Police VR. Someone mentioned that Sony had renewed their copyright, so maybe there's still some hope. Come on, Sony, do the right thing!

Well the tweet says all PS4 owners, but that does seem oddly generous.

its probably pretty short and they are hoping it drives sales of of the main game.
I've been saying they need to bring G-Police back -- they should target for release around the time the Blade Runner sequel comes out.

its strange why they made the demo so short. Almost off puttingly so. I think the whole thing lasts just under 5 minutes. At least let people be able to fly around for a little bit longer. Its not like the demo showcases that much tbh.
Whats the main game like anyone know (Hours wise). I like it but all the online impressions are like "we can't play this game because we want to vomit".

Amazon has that discount for new games, actually it came out to like 16$ and some change, but still a steal imo, especially after the glowing reviews I've read.
Yea rigs was about 40$ with the Amazon discount, and that price is really my limit as far as price goes.
I really wanna get eve Valkyrie but 60$ is a lot for me at this point.
So I got batman, rush of blood and rigs for 75$ total on Amazon.
Ahhh....damn...thinking about getting Best Buy GCU so I can do this sort of stuff
Username1198
Member
Yup was gonna do the same, but Amazon started there discount and release day shipping, so being an Amazon rabid fanboy I stuck with them lol.
But I've heard great things about Best Buy's GCU.
I would def recommend either one.

Hot damn those lens pens work great.
Initial wipe for the oil/sweat with a cloth then the rest gets cleaned to crystal with the charcoal pad. Brilliant!

The Playroom VR says it was made by Sony Japan and that's possibly the best thing out right now. I think Japanese devs are much needed to push VR, this is actually a good avenue for them to shine on a global scale again.
On that note, you didn't mention Summer Lesson
I do agree Godzilla looks woefully short but hey, it's a VR promo for a movie! I'd love to see a VR game based on the film though.Steve McQueen

I never use anything else. You don't even need the cloth. You can breath soflty on the lens, take out your pen and you're done.The Playroom VR says it was made by Sony Japan and that's possibly the best thing out right now.

Oh yeah Sony Japan knocked it outta the park
Hey I enjoyed the Shin Godzilla tech demo. It's not much but then again nor is the Kitchen demo either.
I tried the demo on the Asia region demo disc.
It's cute. Feels like you have the planet sitting on your lap. Not sure exactly what a full game of this will be like though (different levels with different objectives?).

Might order this then. Hearing good stuff about it.

Japan/Asia PS+ right now, SpikeChunsoft tweeted about bringing it to western
It's pretty good too, compared to the likes of Godzilla

So just been looking for a stand for my PSVR, really can't leave it on top of its box, as it looks untidy and the girlfriend will eventually tell me to move it lol.
I'm still a little disappointed the PowerA Display + Charge Stand isn't coming out in the UK or doesn't appear to be yet, as it looked pretty good but I've just seen the PRIF Dynamo Charging Station, which doesn't look bad at all and has the same kind of features (charges 2x Moves and 1x DS4 + 2 has extra USB ports) worth a look for anyone looking for a decent stand for PSVR in the UK.

Amazon have it listed too, its coming out in December.

dayummmnn. Can't wait.
Was thinking. If they can do a quick demo of the New God of War in VR, throw axes and running through that winter stage. ... Hngggh!
or a mini game extra where you can shoot bows and throw axes.

Will do this next time.Told ya
Cleaned them up quick! Will be ordering more of these as backup. That little charcoal pad works wonders. Also the micro brush is great, too.
Thanks, dude!

What are you referring to.. I couldn't find the initial post about this

So I'm not sure how to phrase this... But the very slight snow or static that i see when I'm not focusing on the game... Is that supposed to be that way... It doesn't interfere with the game... I just want to make sure I'm supposed to be seeing it
I played through the demo on the Asian demo disc (video link here). It's quite charming and I like that it supports move controllers. I can see how the full game would be quite a bit of fun, not to mention hectic. Image quality could be better, but otherwise it looked, sounded and felt good. I plan on getting the full game when it's released.
