What do you need 360 degrees for? Who wants to look away from the people doing it?

I really don't understand the principle here as well.  I just don't understand how something that was filmed in 2D is somehow enhanced through VR.  Any sort of "gain" I'd suspect would be offset by the having the VR gear on.

you clearly don't understand.

it's not filmed in 2d.  it's a 360 degree video.  that means with VR you can decide which direction you are looking at,.. at the action or at the wall behind you.  most of these videos are in the PoV format so the camera is generally in the perspective of the person lying on their back and you can watch the action.  look up if you want to look at the girls face and look down if you want to see some cock in pussy penetration.

oh wow... thats um... pretty neat tech we have here.... im low on cheese, i better hop on down to walmart and get some... really expensive cheese  and um.... make sure its hard cheese. yes. the cheese will be so big it'll look like a Playstation VR box lol.... its the good kind so it'll be expensive.   

I'm not sure what grocery stores you have, but I find Kroger's Private Selection brand of cheese on par with some of the wholefoods store selection of edible blocks of mold.

Yes, I have heard of this 360 degree video.  So if a girl is doin' it in a doggie position and I want to "see" her breasts from underneath, do I have to lay on the floor and look up as if I were there?  Honestly even for me, this whole thing sounds retarded.

That's a major selling point for sure!

Take those steps in the OP, multiply them by 3..... that will all still be a a cake walk for anyone wanting to watch porn on their VR headset.

Anyways all that's made to seeem more complicated than it is. Some of those things you will need to do only once, and as for the rest you will probably have been doing them anyways.

I did this days ago. Resolution kills it. It's like watching a bunch of pixels "do it".

probably not the way you are thinking.

there is no free movement.  the camera occupies one spot only.  it's not like a video game where you can walk and move.  it would be more like the old zelda games on the n64 or maybe the old resident evils where the character is planted into 1 spot but then you work around.

really, VR would be for PoV porn except it would be more immersive because the view moves via head tracking.

 

edit. 

just go here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xPhdLz2Ebfw

remember the video is interactive,.. you can change the view with your mouse.  then imagine that you aren't moving the view with your mouse but instead your head and that the view covers 100 degrees of your vision instead of ~10 so that your left with the impression your really there instead of looking at a computer.

or better yet,.. just try VR.  if you aren't able to use your imagination here just try VR at a demo booth.

Price also notes that those devices support multiple VR-video formats. Right now, and this includes far more than just pornography, you can get adult videos, news reports, and music videos in stereoscopic 3D, 360- or 180-degree fields of view, and in over-under or side-by-side alignments. These various formats are better and worse at certain kind of scenes, but PlayStation 4 doesn’t support most of them. Instead, PSVR only does monoscopic 360-degree videos.

Well, stereoscopic 180-degree videos also work, if they are side-by-side.

You have to turn your head 90 degree to the left or right and then recalibrate with holding the "option"-button. After that, the middle of the 180-degree video for the left or right eye should be centered.

So I have heard... ;)

I should have...

...when mentioning about positioning one's self.  That was sort of a joke.  Dumb, but still.  To each his own, but unless I'm in the middle of an orgy, I really don't see the point in this.
