Farpoint is next, May 16th, followed by Star Trek Bridge crew May 30th

There's plenty games
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_PlayStation_VR_games
(That includes experiences too, still many games on there)

I guess you mean not many big games. Hopefully Sony will announce some bigger titles at E3.

I have Batman VR, RE7, Rush of Blood (AMAZING GAMES!) and Gunjack (ok game).

You need more games ;)

I haven't played Batman and Rush of Blood (except for the demo ofcourse) nor Gunjack. I figured the launch games would be on sale by now. The PSVR store could really use a sale now and then. My kids want Job simulator, it's still CAD 40...

While I don't doubt that PSVR is outselling Oculus/Vive... Coming from Superdata means that I won't believe those numbers until a reliable source says so.

Majority of their numbers have been laughable. For example, they predicted that Google Cardboard would ship 84 million units in 2016 even though it took them like 19 months to ship 5 million.

http://www.hypergridbusiness.com/2016/11/report-98-of-vr-headsets-sold-this-year-are-for-mobile-phones/

True, their predictions suck. No clue how good they are at past estimates. They estimated 750k sold in 2016. The only official data we have is 915k sold through on Februari 19th. http://www.playstationlifestyle.net/2017/02/27/psvr-sales-now-900k-sold/#/slide/1
So that would be 165k in 2017 until Februari according to them, double that, add a bit and you get to 375k... Hopefully Sony will share some numbers again at E3.

Rush of Blood is a MUST PLAY.



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

And then there is Gear VR.

The extent of the VR content isn't yet known, but we do know that it's still third person.



Bet with Adamblaziken:

I bet that on launch the Nintendo Switch will have no built in in-game voice chat. He bets that it will. The winner gets six months of avatar control over the other user.

Here's a quick video showing what the camera looks like. The PSVR part starts at 2:00, and sadly they weren't told what the extent of the content in the game would actually be.

Man, that looks so weird! I don't know how I'd do that without getting motion sickness.
