Basically it's just their HMZ added with gyro sensors + LED for PS Cam tracking
in other sense, it's just a cross breed of PS Eye/Wand + HMZ = Proj Morpheus

I'll bet there won't be many games supporting it, and most of the FPS games that supports it will be a vomit inducing events just like the Occulus

but then you'll get limited content compared to Oculus on PC, whereas the PC mod base is almost infinite and anything is possible.

while on PS VR, you're limited to the contents approved by Sony only.

PS4 move? it's already integrated into your PS4 controller
and the PS4 cam that seems no one used.

6 months after price drop, Sony will quietly stop the support for PS VR

As usual with Sony

new peripheral will have a grand launching with wonderful almost out of this world description

then poor follow-up

and finally died a silent dead

Pretty sure it gonna follow the path of PS move/PSV etc...

oh yeah... PS Camera is required to use this PS VR

if you don't have one, need to chip in extra bucks to get the camera as well.

Pretty sure it's gonna be a temporary hype only
and the game dev gonna have a hard time producing enough good games to carry it
not to mention they need to sales figures to sustain the future game dev as well
Also the gamer's library are limited to those released on PS4 only, won't be any custom mods which are plenties on PC scene.
IMO, it's already doomed b4 launch

You won't wanna use it for long gaming session

My HMZ-T2 is collecting dust now

playing 3D/normal games or watching 3D/normal movies on it is for long hours aint comfortable, after one hour plus of using it I'll start experience eye strain, not to mention you'll start feeling the burden of its weight, making the experience really uncomfortable
also you can't be mobile too much, cable is one issue, but the main issue is losing the sweet spot of screen if moving too much, hence you'll need to re-adjust it again.

Nowadays I just rather stare at my good old TV screen, less hassle and I can play in whatever position I want


well.. of cos, comparing an old HMZ-T2 with this sparkling new PS VR is not really fair, I'm sure Sony would have made some improvement over this few years, and of cos, slightly diff technology as well...
but the fundamental issues are still there, the weight and the straining of the eyes for long hours gaming .

I own the T2, IMO the VR is not yet the future at this gen

probably 1 more 2 more gen of Playstation

but knowing Sony, doubt they'll support it for that long

HMZ-T2

http://www.11street.my/product/ProductDeta...&tid=1400016030

now you can pre-order a US/JP set for RM2899

can buy 2 PS4 with that price already

it came with PS Camera and 2 Move stick and some demo games

for USD500, slap on the shipping & GST, I would say it's around there

Some early adopters don't mind paying such money

Whoever that easily gets motion sickness and having hard time watching 3D movies

then definitely this VR is not suitable for you.

Now's it's official!

Sony just admitted that the VR will not run 100% on the current gen PS4 due to it's GPU limitation!
So to get the full experience you'll need to upgrade your console to the upcoming PS4.5!

There ya go, first you'll need PS Cam, then you gonna change your console to the latest one for FULL experience
Way to go... $ony

4.5 not out yet, not even a prototype yet

most reviews pointed out the major flaw:
the outdated peripherals like PS move & PS camera

and these are the forgotten child of Sony, it's ironic in a way that you're using the old peripherals that Sony tried to forget with it's latest love child

I wonder how soon will this latest love child of Sony turn into yet another forgotten child?

Sony had to admit that the old PS Camera + old PS move is cannot bring out the full potential of the PSVR, probably sooner or later they gonna announce new PS Move VR and PS Camera VR, or worst, after a few years if it doesn't sell well, Sony gonna repeat the same old tactic, forgetting they have it and stop supporting it

No surprise there, as expected
since it's based on their own HMD series

+1
it's due to the hype train everyone is trying to hop on
If Sony doesn't keep the hype going by providing more supports, the hype will be sizzled out very fast
Just hope the Sony doesn't drop the ball again this time.
Not only Sony, but the content dev as well...

want 3D experience? go buy their HMD-T series
maybe that's why PSVR doesn't support 3D movies ATM

noob question, TV can be switched off when using the PSVR, right?

So PSVR + PS4Pro + 4KTV owners

you still need a 4K HDMI switch or unplug/plug HDMI cables to get the full 4K HDR experience on your TV?

only realized got such issues when I got my PS4Pro yesterday, testing out with my friend's PSVR
It seems my TV takes a while to get the handshake frm the PSVR for pass-through as well

If the current PSVR hardware cannot support the full 4K/HDR pass-through, think I'm gonna delay getting one for the moment, waiting for PSVRv2 perhaps

good thing I hold me horses during the merdeka sales and upgraded to Pro instead.

we can expect to see a price drop in PSVR1 when 2 is launched.

but for PSVR2, it's still a cable mess
