great hardware!
My wallet crying in the corner 💀
You just said O (oh) instead of O (circle) referring to a PlayStation controller
Actually what
how is the THEATER mode? watching movies or even playing regular/non Vr titles. i loved that feature on the original psvr. hope this one has that feature.
@@beefynfn Wtf are you even talking about? Your makes absolutely 0 sense and sounds like it was written by someone with no brains whatsoever
If u switch to the room view mode does it automatically pause the game?
I tried the PSVR2 for the first time at my brother's place, the experience was beyond anything I had imagined. Playing Gran Turismo was an absolute thrill, especially in his driving sim setup. I'm no car enthusiast or play car games often but, if I owned the PSVR2 with his setup, I would not play any other game besides Gran Turismo.
It would be very difficult to play Hogwarts in a racing SIM setup
Same thing here blew my mind. Re8 is amazing too.
Or resident evil
@jeremyjames374 Then don't play in the simulator, lol.
This is good to hear as I JUST bought GT7, and PSVR2. Definitely looking forward to playing it in VR.
Love the video, the only advice I can give to people is do NOT try to push through motion sickness. As soon as you feel it stop and come back when you feel good, it'll help you get your VR legs much faster
This! Most of the people can grow vr legs and vr wings,. It just needs patience, and as you say, always stop when the motion sickness starts. I needed 2 weeks (oculus quest), and now I can play anything for hours. 2 weeks maybe sounds a lot, but it is totally worth it.
Yeah I tried to push through a few years ago on PCVR playing that cyberpunkish flying car demo. That was a huge mistake. It literally took my breath away.
I turned off the snap turning in Horzion and it was slowly giving me motion sickness. Once I turned it back on it was all good. Definitely not something to just dive into without a little ramp up.
For real I don't know why I keep hearing people talk about powering through. It's like do you hate yourself do you like to feel sick😂🤣 If I felt sick one time. I would stop playing before I felt sick and slowly extend my play session .
@@agtjackbauer My experience was such a weird feeling I have never felt anything like that before and I hope I never feel it again. Luckily I have pretty good vr legs
I think, I may have never commented on your videos before, but here we go: I picked it up purposefully to go VR Racing. Got back into racing games 2-3 years ago and tried to inch further ahead in terms of immersion and realism. In that regard I can only applaud the PS VR2. Not only for the quality but also for the pricing. I know, it has been one of the main criticisms about the hardware, but as you mentioned in the video, getting a PS5 and PS VR2 outright, instead of having to get a high-end gaming pc (which alone will set you back as much as the console and headset together) AND then pay another grand or more on compatible VR goggles… that’s just a much much higher entry-point. I would say. Not disregarding, that you’ll still have to pay somewhere around 1200€, just to get started. But as mentioned… VR experience on a PC still does have a much much MUCH steeper-level pricing. All I can say is that gran turismo 7 on the PS VR2 is almost a must for every racing enthusiast, who also appreciates the story and history of automobiles and likes collecting them, while also having a good driving experience. I would get into why I’m not calling it a good RACING experience (at least offline) but that is way beyond what’s been asked to report. Also… the micro transactions in GT7 are just an atrocious anti-gamer crime to behold… thanks for that Sony and Polyphony. But ey… can’t have it all, eh?
PS VR2: 10/10 🎉
yay, but my wallet says no
Do i have to buy a ps5 or can i just plug an play on my pc
I pre ordered it, and I’m loving it. 100% recommended. I do get motion sickness after 20/30 minutes, but I’m slowly building up my resistance. The level of immersion is incredible. I’ve only played Horizon and RE8, and if this is the beginning, I cannot wait to see what the future games will look like!
Pistol whip = good
Synth riders = great
Jk okay they are both great but my god is synth riders amazing
Damn. That's the only thing preventing me from even considering going the VR route. I already get motion sickness from playing normal first person games 🤢🤮
Have you played the far from home vr? Ive seen some get nauseous but i felt nothing so i expect the same from this
You should try elastic motion sickness bracelets with the little ball that presses on the nerve in your arm, i used to feel horrible after 10 minutes and now i can play for over a hour with zero motion sickness
If you haven't tried yet, I read that turning the brightness of the headset down to the lowest setting helps some people with motion sickness.
Got it two days ago and had two 40 minute sessions of Horizon Call of The Mountain. I had PSVR before but with this PSVR2, the quality and the immersion is a huge leap forward to it's predecessor. I recommend it 100%.
How does VR gameplay compare to playing non VR games? Is it worth it?
@tomorrowsyoutube7138 I got to say that you can not dive into hours and hours of VR gameplay, but it is fun nonetheless. I wouldn't give up the non-VR games for VR just yet, but Horizon and Resident Evil Village are something else. See if you can test it out somewhere or with a friend, and I would say you will like it. The VR2 is worth the money, seeing how much the PC ones cost, on top of a strong PC. You will get games designed for the PSVR2 so you will never have to worry about compatibility or lack of features. VR games are only going to get better.
do you happen to have Skyrim VR version? If so, could you check if it is compatible?
It is literally the only game I got due to my cousin having the PS4 VR. But now it seems it is not compatible with the VR2 and no plans for the update to make it
@@JDarkAngeI It says on the store it is not compatible. PSVR and Move Controllers required. I hope they can do a remaster for Skyrim on VR2 also. As well, I would play Blade and Sorcery on VR2. Let's keep our fingers crossed that they will do it!
my wallet says no
I’m loving RE village in vr. It’s incredible. Haptics are on point. I was so surprised when I shot the shotgun for the first time and I felt it all through my head. Insane.
Don't listen to this guy. It's a trap! VR + horror game dials the game atmosphere up several times. You Will poop your pants.
@@aierce 😂🤣😂🤣😂
@@aierce He’s right! I also forgot to mention I almost pissed myself!
Shit.. I've been holding off on re village! Gotta do it
Played the demo, one of the scariest experiences out there imo, A+ entertainment
Great experience. Picked up Horizon to see what it was fully capable of. No Mans Sky is always great in VR as well. I’ve also picked up Star Wars. Thanks for the recommendation about Gran Turismo. I hadn’t really considered that but it does seem like good possibility.
Gran Turismo is incredible in VR.
Is star wars updated alot I already own on quest so not sure if it would be worth buying on psvr2
Gran turisimo blew me away. Especially when your viewing your car in the garage
Star wars squadrons is really boring
@@jonathanperry7378 yes it’s looks amazing on psvr2
This was awesomely presented! Loved the script especially. Made it really easy to absorb the info.
Always wondered if it's worth picking up a PSVR(now 2) kit for my PS5 when I already have a Quest 2...
Still undecided, but this is great stuff to know none the less! hahaha
my wallet is not undecided... it says no
5:30 flawless editing
Adaptive triggers + haptic feedback makes all the difference in vr. That's another layer of immersion.
have the adaptive triggers worked for you? I've tried many games that say they have it, but my triggers must not be working
@@husklo Its present but they aren’t as strong as the base controller version, probably because if it’s too strong your fingers get tired.
For VR I bet the adaptive triggers are cool, but I turned that feature off after about 10 mins of owning my ps5 lol
I think controllers that track your fingers would have been more desirable. I have a Valve Index, and am so used to not having to hold the controllers, I can't go back.
@Husklo make sure it's turned on in controller settings. Just in case.
I think it's great that you are a vr guy, it gives us a honest review, you have experienced ohter vr sets so you know what to look out for and can give that information to us.
Great review.
Maybe I will look into getting one at Christmas or later, like you said depends on the games coming.
christmas and my wallet are enemies
Finally, been waiting for y’all’s review. I got it launch day, but haven’t dived deep into it, waiting for a decent review from you guys.. perfect, thanks!
Same! Lol
Actually not a great review, didn’t really talk about many negatives.
wallet says no too diving deep
I’m really sad no man’s sky isn’t getting more love. The fact that you get to play the entirety of the game in VR, with no caveats, is absolutely huge and I think it deserves more attention.
The update didn’t improve the graphics. Looks identical to the VR1, blurry af.
The game is too old. It can be good but it's too old
@@skankhunt4527 that's a bit dishonest I did some quick swapping and there's definitely improvements , yes it's still blurry at a distance but that blur is slightly lessened , up close textures are higher quality but it's like going from 720p to 1080p not huge but it is there , personally I find the controllers enough of an upgrade to enjoy the game more to get stuck into it but after seeing resi 8 I do feel they can go further , it's around on par with my rtx2070 pc but without the stutter so I'm happy
But it's still nms. So starts off shit
It's the finest VR experience I've ever had. Everyone going gaga over the distinctly average Horizon whilst NMS is just sitting in the corner keeping quiet and being awesome.
I got it and I was blown away! Downloaded all the demos and I’m working my way through them. I don’t have my VR legs yet so I’m playing in 15-20 min bursts. After watching this, I’m really interested in Gran turismo.
Same ! I play in 30 min bursts lol
i didn't get it... my wallet said no
This seems like an amazing upgrade to the current PSVR. I barely play mine because it’s a chore to pull out all the cables, make sure the camera is set up right, find that weird usb charger that the controllers need, etc. I can’t wait to try this one
my wallet says no
I'm really glad to see the PSVR2 doing well, big budget VR games are what we need and that's exactly what this headset is bringing to the table.
What? I’m a console ps5 gamer but the pc ppl got similar priced headsets & game vr mods free or rly cheap
@@B727X What I'm saying is that, lately the VR games industry has been dominated by lower budget indie titles, and Sony is finally breaking the cycle by releasing big budget games, and bringing high-end VR gaming back to mainstream VR, for every platform, not just Playstation
yeah but the wallet says no
Never been a big VR fan but I really enjoy having the PSVR2 and the option to play these games when I want! GT7 is amazing with a steering wheel and pedals. I really recommend getting the charging station, it’s kinda annoying having to plug in both controllers to charge.
But like the ps5, wait until there are more games on it. VR is a niche product. Not being backwards compatible means you need to wait until devs port a lot of the good VR games to psvr2
@@teneesh3376 people that already play GT7 alot will get some decent value of out it like hardcore sim racers with dedicated rigs, but yeah it’s gonna be a while till the library builds up but atleast buying it shows Sony you want them to support it. That’s why I got it, that and cause I’m a sim racing enthusiast and have my own rig so the headset for me was well worth it just for one game.
@@dbzcollector9963 i mean you do you. Obviously your situation is insane, but interesting. I can kinda relate to a smaller scale. Having a modern TV and a crt tv playing the same things at the same time
@@teneesh3376 yeah it sounds crazy when I say it’s worth it just for one game but then again I’ve spent more on my wheel and entire setup just to get that bit more immersion the headset sorta just completes the setup. I mean I do play other games on it and enjoy them but for me GT7 is my main game and for it to be in vr for the console is huge not to mention they’ll most likely be making the next game vr as well so I’m really looking forward to that and whatever else they bring to the library. So far tho they’ve had better launch titles than something like the stand alone quest that only has mobile games and like 1 full game.
Was really excited for Gran Turismo on The PSVR2 but then disappointed the hand controllers don't work so you need to use a regular controller, looked into a steering wheel but the cheaper end steering wheels with petals (no shifter) that have decent reviews for GT7 run like $400, double that for the recommended ones, not sure it's worth it after spending $600 on VR
The cable length was an issue for me due to the way my gameroom is set up. I grabbed a JSAUX usb-c extension cable and it worked great. I've not seen any lag or loss in fidelity.
I'm very interested. I think the key for this to sell well is for it to actually be easy to demo in stores before you buy. Hopefully Sony will partner with GameStop and/or Best Buy to get demo units in local stores before Christmas this year.
I agree, I’ve been so interested in getting a vr headset since I got my ps4 a few years ago and all these people are saying it’s amazing and I want to experience it myself before I buy one
sadly my wallet says no
For me, the fact that I already owned GT7, RE8 and No Mans Sky meant that along with the Horizon bundle I have plenty to play without going too deep into my pockets above the cost of the unit itself. Worth mentioning though that the other game I purchased was the Star Wars experience. Highly recommended! I like it more than Vader Immortal.
wallet says no
Horizon, What the Bat, Tetris Effect and Before Your Eyes are definitely catching my attention for PSVR 2 games but I’m definitely not ready to jump in on it yet considering that price point. I’m gonna wait it out for a while and if they add more cool games later down the road, I might try it out.
Exactly what I was going to do. I'm extremely excited about the hardware but there simply aren't enough games for me to justify spending that much money on it just yet.
I don’t understand why they couldn’t hit a lower price point. Especially with no hardware running the games on the headset
@@Rhysto115 🤔 true so basically probably the OLED tech inside of it eye tracking and stuff like that I do agree I absolutely shite myself when I saw the price given its wired
Before your eyes is so good
@@johnk6054 uh what?
I don't remember when was the last time I felt so excited about playing with new toy. Really amazing and even with current game lineup it provides a lot of fun. Horizon, Resident Evil and Gran Turismo feel so good! I was not expecting that.
the words new toy hurt my brain... the moment i got money my wallet said no
Detached was my VR limit. It was like a Zero-Gravity sim on PSVR. Not even Wipeout would get me sick. But spinning-around in a spacesuit was a bit nuts, and fun. I got into VR with the PSVR. Any game that gave me full-locomotion and I was happy with it. Older games that deserve an update to PSVR 2 on my list; Hitman, Wipeout, Hitman, SW Squadrons, Hitman, RE7, Hitman, and Hitman. 😄
my wallet is sating no
You forgot Hitman
Jake thank so much. Your ability to state and communicate what I have experienced on my own VR2 is just amazing! My first game is Far Horizon, Call of the Mountain and it provided a very good training ground to try this
new devise. I was really happy how easy it was to setup, play and experience. Its really all new for me but with the future game developments I think it is going to be absolutely amazing tech.
cool but my wallet says no
PSVR2 is phenomenal! I've been getting into GT7 and Kayak VR especially. The latter is a real hidden gem- it feels like going on holiday anytime you want, it looks incredible (bordering photorealistic) and you can use it as a chillout or a workout. And I still get a chuckle out of feeling the convincing headset haptics when I hit my head on a low object because I didn't duck far enough.
My only slight negative with the headset so far is that it sometimes does take a bit longer finding the sweet spot for visual clarity than before, but that is a small price to pay for the massive graphical step up from last gen when you get it.
Also, cinematic mode looks great now, so I can watch Dune on a (virtual) big screen anytime I want!
I was so excited about PSVR but I felt the visuals was not good at all and I couldn’t tell if it was my vision or just the VR so I’m a little hesitant about getting 2
@@emyhR there's a few variables as to why PSVR1 might not have looked good for you. If you were playing on an OG PS4 then a LOT of (though not all) games struggled with VR. The OG PS4 is 10 years old at this point after all, and VR has increased processing requirements vs flat screen due to having to render two images at once (one for each eye). Having a PS4 Pro resulted in a significant improvement for a lot of games. PS5 with PSVR2 reduces the grsphical gap between flatscreen and VR even further thanks to foveated rendering and the fact that it was designed to handle VR from scratch.
Then there was game selection. PSVR1 could still look pretty damn good with highly optimised (generally AAA) games. Wipeout Omega Collection, Moss, Rigs, the modern Hitman trilogy, Borderlands 2 and Resident Evil 7 to name a few all looked great, most of which were also Pro-enhanced. A lot of indie games didn't have the budget or manpower to get the most out of the aging hardware.
That is a lot less of an issue now with PS5/PSVR2. I can't imagine anyone being dissapointed with the visusls of, say, RE8, Kayak VR or GT7. They are phenomenal. And all the games I've tried are a big step up from PSVR1. Combine that with adaptive triggers and headset haptics and you have something really special imo.
my wallet is a dune... my wallet says no
I got the PSVR2 on launch day and have been playing it daily since. It's the first thing to usurp my Nintendo Switch in terms of being my go-to gaming fix. The original PSVR was the first gaming thing that felt new and exciting in a while, so having that experience but improved is great. It has its quirks like you said, but I'm very happy with it overall.
Speaking to the motion sickness thing, I actually had less of an issue with it after turning off the "vignette" setting in Horizon VR. I use stick movement at medium speed.
my wallet is giving the no no
Just got mine! First thing I had to play was Pistol Whip and its exactly what I wanted. The kit itself is fantastic for all the reasons already mentioned in this video and I'm really excited about the future for this thing.
future looks bright... wallet says no
I'm a 13 yo boy that is saving money to get something I like. I recently started wanting the ps vr 2. I already got re8 and I'm planning to get the vr with the horizon cotm and idk if it's worth, I keep changing my mind and I want you advice to see if you still use it or if it's collecting dust.
@@cunoob2783 I go on and off with it, but it's definitely not gathering dust. To me, I like to have something I can play over and over again, that's what keeps me coming back. RE8 and Horizon are probably both great experiences, but they don't interest me as much as a repeatable game that I can keep replaying and improving at. For me, it's been Synth Riders, Beat Saber, and Until You Fall which offer that kind of replayability that I crave. Your desires and experience may be different so make sure you have a lineup of games or something you don't mind going back to again and again.
@@ProxyXIV Okay! Thank you so much.
If you sometimes get motion sickness try placing a fan in front of you while playing. It'll stimulate moving irl which could help! I never felt much sickness but I did feel a bit while playing saints and sinners but this helped me a lot!
Take some dramamine the first few times you play. After that i never got sick again.
also chewing gum can help
Oh yeah I heard about that one
wallet is my master and he says no
I picked up the Horizon bundle. I had controller issues, but the reddit thread helped me fix it. It definitely seems to be some software issue as it makes the controllers (usually one) not work. Most seem to be the right one, mine was the left one and with horizon if you can't use the trigger, you can't climb. I have GT7 in transit and not sure what else I'm going to get. Wonder if they'll port Beat Saber as I hear that's a fun one.
Nice review, its nice that you've got no annoying music like other reviews.
Love this channel, susbcriber since 2 yrs now- I hit the like when the video just starts. And I love those other videos that falcon made. When Im about to buy a game , this is the 1st channel I checked.
I grew bored of the PSVR 1 pretty quick. I would occasionally jump in-nice option.
With the PSVR2, I constantly want to jump back in. RE8 and GT7 have been my top games. Horizon is good but in shorter bursts(more scenic than engaging). Kayak mirage is a good introduction, especially for family/friends. Ragnarock is surprisingly fun and a hidden gem.
I’ve experienced significantly less motion sickness with the PSVR2 compared to the PSVR1. Loving it.
RE8 and GT7 are your top games? Apart from horizon, is that it for psvr2 games?
@@vailingshadow5030 smoothbrain BAIT lool he mentions his three favourite games “iS tHaT iT!!”
I know what you mean it goes with the ps5 so well the loading gets you straight into the game it's like a separate console itself I love it
Do you also think a lot of that comes down to the minimal set up? That was the main killer for me on psvr1. Having to set up the box and all the wires etc. This, yeah I wish it was wireless, but one cable makes it so easy to just jump in and play something.
@@t-rexngatokorua8733 the cable is not a downer when you think that the graphics are superior than any other wireless vr
Got one last week and really enjoying it so far. And for the big headed individuals like myself, it's really comfortable, which I was a little worried about is I found the PSVR1 would push at the sides of my head and get painful after a bit. Now just waiting for the beatsaber port so I can put the VR1 away.
I was really surprised at how comfortable it is
Jake! I really appreciate you praising on how these headsets have been streamlined :D Greets from a day 1 2011 VR enthusiast []-)
I got the old psvr last year. Years after the release. Despite how less advanced it was compared to others, I had a great time with it. Even my mother liked it, she liked the Until Dawn Rush of Blood game just because its like a ride. Resident Evil 7 was awesome in vr. I just ordered this one. Haven't tried any other vr headsets(no good pc), so this should be an amazing experience. Can't wait to replay re8 in vr!
👍🏼
re8 must be dope in vr, sadly my wallet says no
Got it as my first VR set, and can't get enough of Drums Rock. Not a lot of great trucks, but it gets me going for like couple of hours straight. Didn't even start Horizons, but it's tgere, next on the list. If Sony provides some nice titles it's going to be a worth buy for me.
About good games, get pistol whip!!! I didn't believe the people praising it and bought it and holy cow words can't describe how amazing this game is. This alone makes the thing worth it for me already
i can feel it closing in... wallet will not help
I was one who had issues initially with the left controller but got it figured out with some help from a Reddit thread. I really love NMS in VR, starting a new play through and it’s just a great game, you will experience planets in a whole different way.
My main peeve about PSVR 2 is all the short games. Even Horizon which I love, but I’m not paying $50 for a 6-10 hour game. And most of the new stuff is the same length. I guess I’m one of the players out there that is betting on something bigger and better in the future. Forbidden West in VR would be fantastic!
same i got the psvr2 for no mans sky and started a fresh playthrough just for that probably the biggest game in existence no clue how they keep adding expansion worthy content through free updates though i'm not complaining
May I ask how you fixed the controller issue? I have a PSVR on the way and I just want a backup solution in case I run into the same problem
@@MrJonnyHovo i didn't have any issues both my controllers track well, i assume you thought my comment about same meant i had an issue but by same i meant i started a fresh game just for psvr2
@@MrJonnyHovo for me it was to go into nms, then hold the PlayStation button on the left controller for 10 seconds. It will take you out to the PlayStation screen and turn off that controller. Then I went back into NMS with the right control and hit the PlayStation button on the left to restart it. And that was it. Hopefully you won’t have to deal with any issues!
Hey Jake. As a fire fighter, this is similar to our masks and the head crank is similar to fitting our helmets. Just a cool tid bit you might dig.
Ironically I click the light button before the video even gets started because I like you guys content that much
I bought a PSVR2 and I really love the hardware. It is my first VR headset that I own.
GT7 in VR is jaw-dropping.
I think the biggest worry for me is that a lot of the games I really want to play on the PSVR2 rely on the kindness of Sony's competitors -- a Minecraft PSVR2 update, a Skyrim PSVR2 update, and a Half-Life Alyx port.
I also really, really want to play Genshin in VR.
I've never before thought of Genshin in vr, but now that you've said it, i can't stop thinking about it. that would be so sick
@@im2shady4u13 Mihoyo changed its name to Hoyoverse! It seems like such an obvious idea.
I'm just hoping that AAA studios will create games with vr in mind. I didn't pay $877 canadian to just experience indies in vr. I wish there was vr for the last of us(factions 2 maybe?), dead space and ace combat.
But Capcom did announce that they're working on a vr mode for the resident evil 4 remake. I can't wait to play that.
While those game would be great, I feel like the games we already have and the ones that have been announced are more than enough.
3rd person games actually work surprisingly well in VR.
I'm glad you guys don't rush reviews. I don't want a day 1 review always. I want an HONEST review, which is why I'm subscribed
The outlets that do day one reviews got access to the product before launch. Their reviews aren't rushed either.
Your videos are fantastic. Really fresh and informative. Thank you and keep it up!
fresh................................................................ wallet says no
😍 That Robocop framed pic. Oh, and the headset looks great too. :)
What's your opinion on the theater mode for non-VR games and viewing movies and streaming media?
Good balanced review, even being a fellow VR enthusiast. I wish it PSVR2 could be better than a cautious recommendation depending on the software lineup, but that's just where VR is right now. Kudos to Sony for making an awesome device. Hopefully more hybrid titles like RE8 and GT7 will follow.
I've said it for a while now, people usually don't care about VR exclusive games, but they're curious about what it would be like to play their favorite flat games in VR. Maybe even curious enough to buy a headset and get converted :D
least risky take of all time
same... wait... my wallet is saying no
Same, but it's expensive, that's what I'm thinking. Playing the flat screen games in VR
got mine last week, so far beat saber, RE 8, and GT7 are amazing! this thing is my new toy for a while!!
I ordered one on Friday. Can't wait to get it so I can play gran turismo 7 with my mates in vr. Plus I have got a wheel to make it even more immersive
Only VR I ever messed with was the original PSVR until on Wensday I ordered my PSVR2 and mannnnn I'm just blown away
Watching this video just made me realise how long I've been watching you guys and its been great. Keep up the amazing work. It's always been enjoyable
Thanks!!
i hope the wallets wallet wall it wa llit
If you’re a gamer without PS5 and PSVR2, I don’t know what you’re doing at this point. It’s that good!
As usual Mr. Baldino providing the level headed professionalism the internet needs. You can be a fan and still be fair. There’s nothing wrong with criticism. There’s nothing wrong with enjoying yourself. This is how you editorialize. Well done as usual.
he's great... wallet says no
PSVR2 bois lets gooooo
Re Village VR must be amazing. That was my favorite part of owning a meta quest..RE4 VR. Definitely picking this up.
There is RE4 Remake VR too in the work
I checked out The Light Brigade before RE8. Especially coming from that kind of low detail, I hit the RE8 menu and blurted out "oh holy fuck" in my living room. It looks AMAZING.
RE Village looked INCREDIBLY real and scary. I was too scared to leave my room. LOL
As an early VR adopter, motion sickness will happen but take your time and go slow. Play till you start to feel a little weird then take a break and come back when you feel better. Eventually you’ll notice lasting a lot longer as you get your VR legs
there never seems to be enough time to do the things you want to do once you find them
god seeing the old studio, classic Gameranx
Gameranx your reviews are always so honest and on point! Thank you for this.
@Iamgameranx000 BEGONE BOT!
i want to leave but i'm stuck
Got it day one! Picked up; pro football, horizons, star wars, pavlov, already had gt7. Compared to my 3090 paired with a reverb g2, it's probably a little better. Worth the buy
Liking and commenting for the algorithm. Thanks for covering this 👍🏼
I’m still holding out hope for a Last of Us VR game. That would be both amazing and terrifying in VR!
Holding out why? Resident evil and The walking dead VR2 exist.
@@skankhunt4527 Because it would be cool to happen. You're telling me you don't want to have a VR game based on TLOU?
All of those cutscenes and cinematics would be such a headache in VR
Yes
This and Killzone are my biggest requests!
This was a really good overview. Time and effort definitely worth it!
my wallet says no to effort
The cameras and switching to outside view was crazy!
got this on pre order, my last headset was psvr1, the technology on this thing is something really awesome and gives you another reason to love humankind. I really like vr games for what it is . A great medium to obtain immersion and new way of possibilities to input controls and interact inside
games . I hope many people get to experience what this device and its games get to offer. This is not going to replace pancake gaming but it is a device that will take many hours of gameplay as well, only downside imo is that many of these games require you to have more energy and have the attitude to do some physical work ( nothing compared to ringfit but you get the idea), climbing a mountain and shooting some arrows might get you sweaty after a while. This might become an issue if you are the kind of guy that get to play vídeo games with low energy levels.
i aint readin alllllllllllllllllllllllllllll... wallet says no
No hardware issues for me. Absolutely in love with this thing so far. RE8 and GT7 honestly feel like they may have justified it on their own for me. Nevermind all of the other cool experiences I’ve gotten to have with smaller games.
I can guarantee that Astrobot will get either a rerelease or a sequel or both and that will also be great.
i love astrobot... wallet says no
Dude RE 8 is the total exp, from start to finish. I put about 2 hours into it with 17 different save points for key moments. itll be the selling point for any of my friends that wants to try it out
I'm really impressed with this VR it's my first for gaming. I had a Galaxy VR in 2015 that I would dock my phone into it until the phone started to change the form factor. Still, GT7 and RE8 are my favorite VR experiences as of now.
Those are my favorite too, but I liked Horizon as well.
Phone VR is a joke. It's like saying that jacking off is close enough to real sex, so it's practically the same thing. I'm glad you get to experience real VR now!
Got my PS VR2 last week and I am loving it. Gran Turismo is incredible in VR and as a big Horizon fan existing in the world is so cool.
are the ones we love still with us in our hearts or in our wallets
Definitely excited for this! Hope the game library expands by the time I grab one!
librarys are supposed to be places where you get stuff for free... my wallet says no
IMO, this is the first VR headset that's good from all angles. The comfort and weight of the headset, the tracking is excellent, it's basically plug n play, and the visual quality is up there with the more expensive PC VR headsets. I also haven't experienced any bugs yet, which I can't say the same for the PC VR world. My only gripe is the cord is easily kinks, so i would advise not to roll it up when putting it away.
There's some great PCVR headsets but they're expensive AF and need a hefty GPU to be ran properly. I hope the PSVR2 encourages innovation in the PCVR space (especially the foveated rendering.)
I use those command wall hooks and then the wire comes from above you so mostly dont notice it
The first VR headset that was allround great was the Quest 2 imo. I still prefer it over the PSVR2. It has sharper visuals, better tracking and is capable of playing wireless which is mind-blowing. Wired VR feels like a huge step back to me now.
@@Skrenja I'm using a three year old RTX 2060 laptop for PCVR, so you really don't need a huge expensive rig.
@@BlackParade01 Debatable. Flat to VR mods are usually pretty damn GPU intensive. Some of the RE games still stutter on my 2080Super
9:27 The Delorean also has a max speed of 88 MPH *on the actual speedometer* in the game (plus the digital clock matches live, real-world time) & it's clearly visible when in VR (albeit there is some missing functionality that can't be fixed in VR mode such as best lap in an online lobby & other live data).
The speedometer on the Delorean tops out at 85 (just like the real ones did). I think there might've been a USDOT regulation about that during the late seventies or early eighties. The ones in the Back to the Future cars were made for the movies.
that impressive... wallet says no
Interesting and informative review. Makes me intrigued to buy it. Finally getting a PS5 next week so I’ll keep this in mind
ps5 is probably gonna be next on my li... wallet said no
Thank you I absolutely love my vr 2 it’s amazing to actually be put inside the game experience is breathtaking ❤
I really love the psvr2 so far! I experienced motion sickness and headaches a lot less with the higher frame rate and graphics. Shout out to the game Demeo, got a unexpected love for the game!
let me start a fre
The jump from 1-2 is insane, never imagined the difference in quality and ease of use. For anyone thinking of vr this is the best on the market
Worth the price?
@@vatossureno for the technology yes, for the line up not yet. It's the best version of vt but not enough games as of yet
big difference but my wallet is still saying no
@markP595 true. Releases will come though. GT7 alone for me, is worth PSVR2. Can get hours out of that game, until more release follow
@@Vor_Tex_Sun totally agree NMS and GT7 were the same for me.
Horizon is my first ever VR game. Well, I'm excited for Beat Saber to get ported. I have played that on the Quest 2. This is an amazing game. VR gameplay blows my mind. I love exploring rooms in Horizon games, this one literally allows you to do it yourself. I also preordered before your eyes.
beat saber says wallet says no
Your content is just so honest and excellent
I am very interested in seeing where they take the psVR2. I honestly enjoyed the games on the first one.
so far it’s pretty fun i been playing pavlov, re8, horizon, ATF, light brigade, no man’s sky, and pistol whip and i’m honestly so impressed after owning the quest 2 lol oh and star wars that shit looks like they remade the game it looks so good 😂
Got mine on launch and played GT7 and it was amazing! Still have my ps4 pro and psvr1.
Motion sickness has nothing to do with your stomach but the vestibular apparatus in your inner ear which is there to give you your orientation in 3 d space and help your brain make sense of what it sees in relationship to you and your distance and angle to it. Some people have legitimate issues with processing information that doesn't line up with where they are in space in relationship to what they are seeing. motion sickness is your brain telling you something is wrong between where you are and what you are seeing for example climbing a ledge while both your feet are firmly on the ground...
Just finished playing Village, so cool
👌
I never played village. It’s a good experience in vr? Like to go in your first gameplay?
You pretty much nailed the experience of owning a PSVR2. I'm just hoping the future games 🎮 will make it worth wild. So far I only have GT7 (which is amazing) & RE Village (makes the game a completely different experience). Just waiting for the library to beef up.
i don't have those things, mainly due to my wallet saying no
I absolutely love mine. RE8, Pavlov, and GT7 are just absolutely amazing. I've played more Gran Tursimo 7 this last week than I have since it's launch and I just can't get enough.
If Sony can deliver software wise it's gonna be a wonderful couple years with this kit.
sony always delivers... my wallet says yes but still no
Do you guys also have mura on grey screens?
Will absolutely pick this up.
Once the library grows more big titles
👍🏼
i know you guys were debating on talking about this, just wanted to say i really appreciate you guys putting in the work for us, the consumer. really curious about this device!
🤝
Yes! Was waiting for this. Almost bought a oculus last year but because I own a ps5, I figured hold off for the psvr 2. Idk what to do!!! Lol. It's my first VR plunge.
Absolutely loving my PSVR2. My only issue is that I bought too many games and I'm struggling to commit to just one.
same bro... jk i have no money my fucking wallet hates me
Walking dead Saints and sinners retribution should be fun. Really looking forward to that next month, and I’m excited for switchback because I really enjoyed rush of blood in psvr. At the moment, Gran Turismo is the coolest game on there. I’m having so much fun with it and I’m not even really into cars or racing. It’s such a cool experience especially if you get the wheel for it. Had my father and grandfather try it out and they were completely amazed by it.
For real we have some good games coming in the near future!
PSVR 2 NEEDS A BOXING GAME!!!!
Use the snap turning feature it will help with the sickness
I'm new to all of this. The last time I played a game like this was maybe 20 years ago with a friend who owned Wi (I think that's the name). I did bowling. It was pretty realistic.
My path here was Indian wars on YT a few hours ago. --> Viking ships to North America videos ----> Middle East wars about 1000 years ago ----> Assassins (like the first assassins from the year 1050AD) -------> Saw the Assassins Creed game mentioned in one of the comments ----> Checked out the game. Of which I had 0 clue something like that even existed -----> Platforms that game could be played on ------> Here I am.
I'm 2-3 times as old as most people who might read this. I wasn't aware of these games. I'd heard of Xbox and Playstation, but didn't know much about them. I can see where this stuff is entertaining.
Is Play Station VR2 the best platform to buy? I see PS5, XBox, and a few others as platforms. Is there a way to try any of these out before I buy something?
i am replying to every damn comment and my wallet still says no
Dude GT in VR is so damn mind blowing because of how perfect the materials and textures are from the drivers seat. My brain did have a hard time adjusting to the car moving and my body being perfectly still while driving tho. Such a weird feeling lol
I got sick in about 10 minutes, walked away for a couple hours and tried again now I can play for hours
Yeah dude, its weird moving in vr while standing or siting at first until you get ur "vr legs". want a easy way to adjust seeing things flying by, Just point a fan at you while you play a walking or driving game to trick the mind that the air flow hitting ya is keeping you immersed and dry!
My bro got one and im giving him pointers about how vr goes too, peace man.
@@bigolchunk damn that's a great idea, and getting your VR legs is a wildly accurate way of putting it too lol. Thank you friend 👍🏾!
I had an issue with my right duel sense controller for my psVR2 when I was trying to play Call of the mountain the x button would not work I had to go into a reset by taking a sewing needle and pushing it through the little opening, a little hole that's in it that's the reset button and by doing that it reset it and I've had no problems ever since hopefully they will have an update patch with some firmware that'll fix this in the future
Same here
Quick question - When playing in VR and streaming directly from the PS5 to Twitch, are you still able to see Twitch chat that normally pops up? So you can talk to your community?
Got mine last week. Fantastic.
PSVR2 is my first headset, loving it so far but still getting my "VR legs". Excited to see what's in store for the future. RE8, GT7 are incredible.
It can take time, it was about a month for me before I could play games that use the thumbstick to move. Just take it easy and give your body time to adjust!
VR2 is my first VR experience, and I gotta say I'm loving it! Love the rhythm music games like Synth Rider. No man's sky gave me a little motion sickness, but it was a blast!
You’ll overcome that for sure. You might like Star Wars too
Since you're new to VR, take it easy with games like NMS where your body is being moved around by the game. Play these games for a little and take a rest as soon as you feel a bit queasy. Your body will adjust in time.
For motion sickness don't push through I did that and was sick for 10 hrs straight, chewing gum with a fan on your face works. Also Ginger candies can help
same bro.... except the part about vr.... my wallet said no
thank you Jake and Gameranx
Maybe a stupid question, but would you be able to use the VR setup connected to your PC? And if not, would is it going to be possible later on maybe ?
A pro tip I was told by YT'ber thrillseeker was to put a fan near your TV so you 1) don't hit it because you are passively aware of the location and how strong the wind is to let you know if you are too close. 2) is to help reduce how often you get motion sick because since you feel wind you will likely trick some of your brain into believing that you are moving to some degree and motion sickness won't hit you as hard.
Personal tip is to have the fan set low enough that it isn't interrupting audio during important dialogue during gameplay/cutscene. While having the fan speed high enough that you feel it
wallet says no to fan
