It's an opinion and they are entitled to it, why does ot bother you so much? I mean it's 99% likely wrong but they should be able to state it if they really beleive it.

Yes stating it once or twice is enough. But why repeat it 4 or 5 times in the same thread?

I dont know who that was but they must be crazy. I think maybe they saw one too many pc mods done in a week. But I suspect they actually believed in what they were saying vs making up shit just to make something or someone look bad. It kind of leads me back to my point, there are lots of opinions and just because one is negative or contradictory to the group, doesn't mean they shouldn't be heard. Keeps this place from being boring.....

I wasn't keeping track that person.....maybe they went overboard or got defensive. Is the embargo lifted yet? Lol

I really wanna get it but 2 things holding me back are the price (CAD$750) & it's current catalog, I think it's best if I wait until there's a big enough selection of games to choose from.

I will say as well to anyone who hasn’t used it - flat screen videos will not give you the full picture. The graphics look WAY crazier in VR

First user review I’ve seen (from Reddit)
After using it for a while now I am convinced they have done something powerful to reduce motion sickness. I am not an expert in VR but I have used first generation of oculus rift when it came out and it looks like it belongs to museum compared to this.
I’ve also owned meta quest 2 for 1 month and I sold it back because I was not impressed and games at times made me nauseus even in cinema mode watching videos.
I don’t understand how or why but the graphical fidelity on menu and text alone are light years ahead in ps vr2 compared to meta quest 2. Difference is so massive they should not be compared. It’s like comparing ps4 to ps5.
Comfort is better, not a single hiccup so far in tracking or in gaming. No disconnections or crashes nor headset getting hot so far. No dead pixels in this unit and this comes from paranoid guy who aims perfection in screen.
Screen is even and there is no tint anywhere, when adjusting eye tracking it is so accurate that it feels ridiculous. You can’t fool it and it knows exactly where you are looking at.
No light is leaking anywhere and i’m not even tightening unit firmly.
Ps vr2 has 2 options to tighten up the unit. First is the headstrap and 2nd is to bring screen closer to your face which also tightens it. You can adjust how far it sits from your face.
Once adjusted the wide area is clear and not foggy at all, if you don’t adjust it well the very edge of the screen has very slight blur on the text, very slight. Once you adjust it you can’t easily track areas that has slightly blurred text.
Whole playstation interface is in ps vr2 so you don’t need to take it off for anything at all. Right now if you enter normal ps5 game the VR controllers stop working and it requires dualsense controller, then again it is not launch day and they haven’t added day 1 patch.
I will contribute the cinema mode impression mostly for everything being pitch black instead of grey so the image it self pops out like a rocket. So you focus entirely on the content/menu. They did the right thing going oled.

Well, the full screen is more, but only parts of it is used for the main image.Cinema mode is only 1080p right?

This might be the breakthrough product that the VR community was waiting for.
As a VR skepticist I have now PSVR2 on my radar.

Come on you know that’s just marketing crap. I’m not expecting much but we will see. I think the review embargo lifts at 9am est.

As it has precise eye-tracking, SIE should make a game (with realistic graphics) where big-titty beautiful models appear on the screen and do all kinds of sexy stuff to get your attention. The challenge would be to keep looking at their face and not at the sexy bits.
If you do, you lose. And Jim Ryan appears on the screen laughing.
And there should be a global online leaderboard to see how far people can manage to go without looking at where they aren't supposed to.
Come on, Jimbo, do it!

40Hz runs in 120Hz mode, so it should work.

Does that mean the standard media player can't do 3D content just like PSVR1?
That would be so dumb....
There will obviously be 3rd party players for it but that's just ridiculous.

How Fast Is PS5 Wi-Fi? Here’s Why Wi-Fi 6 for PS5 Is a Big Deal - PlayStation Universe
How fast is the PS5 Wi-Fi and how will Wi-Fi 6 speed things up compared to the current generation PS4?www.psu.com
Bluetooth 5 = 2Mbps
The video + input streaming direct over WiFi isn't there yet.
You need to realize this isn't some dumb thing they wanted to do, it's a dumb thing they had to do.
Quest 2 1.2 TF GPU (less than PS4)
PS5 10.3 TF GPU

Not this again. ...
USB-C uses alt mode displayport, which for DP1.4 has a bandwidth of 25.92Gbps.

Beyond the hardcore tech adopters its not a valuable proposition imo. Expensive, no BC, personally I believe the rumour posted here a week or so back that preorders havent hit what they expected, but obviously you cant say that on GAF without getting a ton of shit from the Sony defense force battalion

So is it Thursday bc no impressions yet
Btw I have a super pc with 4090 and I’m super pumped for psvr2. Why? You never sleep on console vr. If you own a ps5 you can spend 550 to get high quality vr. Price wise it’s actually really good for what you get.
I’m also into pinball and would love to see the reactions of people on NeoGAF to the price of games. We’re taking 10-15k!
