May be good for the processing and all, but now it makes me wonder how damn expensive will it be.I was thinking 300 dollars was a good prediction, but now im thinking it is more around 400...

 


I would much rather have it expensive than weak, the VR games they have shown so far look all like indies. I hope this is sonys last minute decision to make it relevant, they have announced driveclub, tekken 7 and gt sports as only AAA titles being compatible with VR recentley. I hope this is because of this extra hardware change than heavy downgrades

 


Rigs and EVE look like indies? and no, its certainly no last minute change. it was deemed absolutely necessary pre development.

 

btw. the existence of the PU is known for quite some time and what it does too.

You forgot RIGS, Summer Lesson, DOA Xtreme 3, DREAM and No Man's Sky.
I'm pretty sure the last 2 games i mentioned will has VR supported. Infact, any First Person games could do. So don't be so surprised when the next Call of Duty or Battlefield will be compatible with Oculus Rift and PlayStation. VR

hm.. I wouldn't really expect first person shooters on VR yet.. people feel really weird when they move the character with a joypad especially in high paced gameplay - while RIGS is conceptually similar it's putting you in a cockpit, which funnily enough seems to trick the brain into being fine with controller based movement

Oculus rift is so doomed... Oh wait!

This isn't news, I'm pretty sure they've talked about this box quite a few times before. Looks like it's news to alot of users though

and Driveclub VR graphics being downgraded from the original even with this extra processing box...

Theyre going all out with the ps4 slim there, so tiny!

What? Guys, we've known about this for like a year. Even the picture in the OP has been out for a while now.

Also, the size of a Wii or Wii U? The report said that it was almost as big as a Wii, how did that turn into almost the size of the Wii U? It's probably about the size of the Wii mini.



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.

Thank you.

Oh, and PSVR did end up getting that OLED screen.
