Not getting motion sick

Cost is still a major issue for a lot of us, specially if you add the extras (cameras & controllers) needed for a better immersion.



Please excuse my bad English.

Currently gaming on a PC with an i5-4670k@stock (for now), 16Gb RAM 1600 MHz and a GTX 1070

Steam / Live / NNID : jonxiquet    Add me if you want, but I'm a single player gamer.

Already have the PSVR and Oculus Go. Both on day one.

Unfortunately, I'm having a hard time finding compelling new software for both. Guess I'll just play what I already have.



Well, technically I've been using VR since the Gear VR and now the Oculus Go. But that's just for porn. To actually game on VR I will need a great game first. A good open world RPG.

Also I'll need much better hardware. The current offerings are just pitiful. I need a headset that would actually fully utilize a 3080ti. And all of that preferably wireless.



If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.

I already have 4 headsets. I'm sure I'll get a new one rather sooner than later, lol.



Official member of VGC's Nintendo family, approved by the one and only RolStoppable. I feel honored.

I already have Oculus Rift and am happy with the experiences I've had with it.

Anyone that says otherwise is a filthy liar.



Nothing, I feel like using VR regularly would make me feel like the biggest loser (not saying that those who use it are), na mean. But I'm sure future holds tech that will provide virtual realities by a click of a button, without the need of wearing a headset and gesturing like a fool, and then I might be interested.

Deus Ex (2000) - a game that pushes the boundaries of what the video game medium is capable of to a degree unmatched to this very day.

Games. Always games.

I have PSVR and a Samsung Odyssey Windows Mixed Reality Headset for PC. I have the same issue. Lots of appetizers, but no main course.

Luckily we just got Half-Life Alyx on PC, and it is delivering the goods. Fisrt full on AAA title I have played in VR. It has the visuals, the gameplay, the full length campaign, and full on AAA production values. This will be a landmark title for VR.

Now I am just hoping Marvel's Iron Man VR can deliver a great capper for PSVR on PS4. Then I am ready to see what devs can do with PSVR on PS5. Really hoping Sony will start to do some select AAA VR titles sooner than later. 



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.
