Was bumped after hearing nothing from Playstation Asia and Sony Singapore said the collection is on 10/14 onwards but today they called up to arrange collection for tomorrow:D

Maybe I should grab a Japan PSN card and preorder Summer Lesson tonight

Downloading Driveclub VR ^_^

Rush of Blood and Thumper are next on my list.

Grabbed Thumper yesterday,it REALLY has that "just one more go" vibe going on! It's seriously is going to melt my face in VR and I can't wait!

This is gonna be one of PSVR's best games @ release.

... Cracking OT too. :)

got me PS VR yesterday.... well.. IT'S AMAZING.
the FOV it's so high that i noticed that headset lens border only after 1 hour of usage.

Danger Ball it's UNBELIEVABLE. here you can walk (not a lot due to the PS Camera) and go out of the virtual room... and it was so real omg

The only game that i really don't like it's LUGE. the graphic is pretty bad.

P.S
BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING, UPDATE THE VR FIRMWARE TO VER. 2.0!

edit:
In case someone is interested, the audio is ALWAYS Played trough the TV/AMP too. So you remove the headset and enjoy A REAL surround. And of course, rotating your head will result a in 3D audio.

Thanks for the info on the surround!

Any differences you noticed between the PSVR original firmware and the PSVR firmware 2.0?

Doing it at mine, too. Sadly, mine isn't doing a midnight release, but instead are opening up an hour early Thursday morning. I'll be there two hours or an hour and a half early to nab one. Good luck!

:D Thanks, you too.


:O I'm so hyped! Downloading Eve Valkyrie now. It still won't let me buy Driveclub for some reason though.

Any OT title suggestions?

Awesome OT, very interested in seeing RIGS at launch. Hoping the Giant Bomb stream gives it a good showing.

I don't know if they'll have Summer Lesson but I want to see what all the fuzz is about.

Rez is a confirmed timed exclusive?
Click to expand...

I was surprised by this, too. Apparently, the source for this is the launch lineup summary on blog.eu.playstation.com from October 5th.

Rez Infinite
Play it first on PlayStation VR
Developer: Enhance Games
Release date: Available at PS VR launch
Compatibility: PlayStation VR compatible
Click to expand...

For other games such as RIGS, it says "Playstation exclusive".

Let's just hope this means an incoming Rez PC Rift/Vive release, not Xbox One. :)

Good job on the OP, my headset just arrived for pickup, not sure i should get it as they screwed up the camera order and it just shipped, if it,s not here by 0900 tomorrow morning i'll be disappointed, as for games i've not picked up any yet, As much as i do want driveclub vr i just can't as my g25 still won't work, so think i'll go thru the us demo and then decide.

Can't wait to get playing with you all.

Are you trying to buy the upgrade for season pass holders and not the standalone version?
Click to expand...
I already own Driveclub digital version and its season pass, bought it yesterday for $20 even though I already own the game on disc. I tried to get the standalone Driveclub VR from the store (US), it's there but it won't let me buy it (no purchase button).

As expected an awesome OT!

I still like collecting retail games too much, so I ordered everything that is availabe on disk and only bought Bound digital. Please don't make me get sick VR :p

I'm still wondering how I'm going to integrate this with my Home Theatre Set-up. I have a HDMI receiver and non of the FAQ's tackle people with this set-up. My main concern is the receiver introducing lag, but I have no idea how this will turn out. Nor how I would go to best wire this thing up.
Click to expand...

Just run the HDMI from PS4 to the PSVR processing unit, and the HDMI out from the PU to your receiver.

Nice work on the OT, Sangetsu-II!

They look awesome.....but on the page it wasn't clear when you'd be able to use any of them......is this information known?

Man I cant wait till some JRPG dev makes an action RPG or dungeon crawler. Online co-op would be a plus.
Click to expand...

You and me both.

A hybrid one would be cool too. Maybe 3rd person (so we can have comfortable movement) in the field and then some kind of action or turn-based combat since there's no locomotion involved on a battle screen.

I'm in!

Rez Infinite
Batman VR
Tumble VR (loved the first one!)
Until Dawn: Rush of Blood
PlayStation VR Worlds

I'm tempted by RIGS but it's quite pricey for something that might not be that great. I'll wait for the reviews before dipping in.

From Software King's Field VR. I want this to happen so bad.
Click to expand...

They're working on a PSVR game, or was I just dreaming about that? But afair we don't know anything about it yet and I'd love it to be a new King's Field game.

Edit: my Amazon.de order should ship today, it's happening, isn't it? But I'll have to wait at least a week to get it though, free shipping to Switzerland ;(

Bandai Namco Asia just announced Chinese and Korea localisation for Summer Lesson on Youtube, planned for Spring 2017

No mention about English localisation though.

It may be worth putting some kind of disclaimer or warning regarding sunlight and VR headsets. Folks need to be careful that the lenses are never exposed to direct sunlight, as this can permanently damage your displays, even if just for a few minutes. Make sure when you're done using your PSVR that you never leave it where sunlight may come in through a window and strike the lenses.

Well TiL.

Is there a demo version of the shark tank experience on the demo disc? I want to show that off first to people but not sure if I can buy it yet.
