Slightly off topic, but I'm starting to notice, despite the fact that info has now been spreading across the net we are seeing a rise in PSVR threads akin to talking about a single sole peripheral in the same way we saw plenty of NX threads and with a list of 50 supposed PSVR games I imagine we'll be seeing a single thread for each and every game along with a thread for specs of said game, some special segment of the headset, you get the idea. I'm thinking at this point it's only fair that a megathread is created just for PSVR or the number of threads gets toned down a but because I honestly don't see it begin fair to constantly spam PSVR threads daily now but not for NX (because of the recent rules against it).

The differnce is... with NX theads there is no 100% confirmed real news... becuase nintendo has kept quiet for more than a year.

Which means 1 years worth of empty speculation and rumor threads.

This is real news, about a product thats out.

 

Basically your wrong. Also we have 3 NX threads in Forum hot topics right now.

This is the biggest load of bull i read so far. One question exactly what do you feel the OR is worth?. Sony admited their selfs that the PSVR is not as "Advanced" as the OR, so Facebook owning them has nothing to do with it. If Sony had the same Hardware in the PSVR it would also be more then 400, but it doesnt it has cheaper hardware in it, but clearly this is something you wont admit to.

And heres the thing with that type of money, its no problem getting companys to manafacture the Rift. I just love how you guys go about downplaying companys thats not Sony.

"OR is only so expensive cos facebook doesnt know how to make them, PSVR has better hardware cos of Sony being a Hardware company thats why its so cheap"

PLEASE!...

The PSVR is actually better in quality than the ORift imo. It supports up to 120HZ refresh rate ORift only 90Hz, so you cant say one is better than the other if it has specs who are below PSVR. What Sony said themselfs was actually wrong.

Its common fact that a Hardware company can produce cheaper and better quality Hardware than a software/webbrows company, ORift was funded with Kickstarter too. VR devices have also a lot of Optical things in it, which Sony is known with making Cameras etc.

 The OR has the better hardware when it comes to lenses (not sure about that one but the lenses are superior to the Vive lenses) and audio ,also it has 2 screens instead of one.  Which is great for IPD it has a bigger FOV an IPD Slider. Also Resolution is higher in the Oculus. (even though PS VR has full RGB Oled for each pixel). 

Sony made an incredible headset for an incredible price. However even they know that it is inferior to the Rift (strictly speaking about the Hardware.)  I thinkm the main issue is that PS VR has just a single screen and Oculus has two built in which has certain advantages for VR.

This Sony even said it is worse than Oculus themselves in therms of hardware. How much confirmation does one need. But it's the games which will make the difference anyway.



Please excuse my (probally) poor grammar

oculus will have more power but i feel psvr will have the better games, we'll see though

I'm not saying whether Oculus or PsVR will sell well or not. But we don't know how many of each have been promised to retailers. Remember the original Kinect sold out its first 4 shipments before launch. Also recently Surfacebook sold out for over a month worth of preorders before launch.

Oculus and PSVR selling out preorders was expected. People with high disposable income will just buy regardless. Its the other 95% of the population that matters where product success is concerned.

Ah you are making the same mistake that I made. Basically the sold out is the initial launch day stock. Once that was through, then amazon and others put it back up, but are saying that you wont get it for launch. They are doing what they did with the PS4 launch.

I saw on the internet "Sold out/Unavailable" messages, but was able to pre-order it, but my release date is currently 1st-2nd of November, whether i ordered early enough to be part of that initial batch is unknown. I guess as others have said, Sony have time (considering how far october is away) to start building more VR units. I feel that I should have it on launch day and I think anyone buying in the first few weeks should as well.



Making an indie game : Dead of Day!

This must be hard times for some of those Xbox/Nintendo-enthusiasts who so badly want PSVR to fail.

Well the orginal kinect was a success (especially first year) the problem was the lack of games.
