Is the psvr2 need to buy ps5 also or it standalone?

ps vr2 needs PS5 to play..

also cannot play ps vr1 games.

Then other vr is better right because they don't need another hardware? Oculus quest and Pico is standalone and can play already

Yes..

but dont expect to play Ps vr2 level of quality.

with single cable
i think integration with PC also easier

sony didnt announce anything about making PSVR2 compatible with PC..

as long as Sony doesn't use any propriety connector again, as long as it's plain USB-C, then there will be unofficial support on PC

if just USB C 2.0..thn is not tht ideal for PCVR..

PSVR2 got propriety port so i dont think is using normal USB C cables.

thn gg for PCVR..

yep gg lol just hope the cable can buy easily in market

sorry mistake the psvr 2 connector is propriety which the cable connect it but the other end of the cable is using normal USB-C port to connector to ps5 so in theory still can work with pc as the the cable connector to pc will still be using the USB C port connector problem is can pc detect or not hahaha

this one need to see what Sony is going to do..

i would said no worry even sony dont allow someone will hack and make it work with pc

Not True.

1st. No more Oculus. is now called Meta Quest 2

2nd. Meta Quest 2 can play standalone. But... if you wanted to play the best VR Games... u need a Powerful PC. (3060 equivalant.)

3rd. Best VR Library is Steam VR.


I am a Quest 2 User. Honestly, without a Good PC, Quest 2 is just meh.

PSVR? who? PSVR2? Who?


PSVR is a joke. 1080p RGB (960 × 1080 per eye; 90–120 Hz refresh rate)
All the game u play with PSVR look like minecraft ( resolution too low )

PSVR2? Is a bigger Joke ( now )
PS5 itself has a laughable library. PS5 VR Titles???


If anyone familiar with VR, they wont consider PSVR at all. Why? 1 more thing :


If you have a Powerful PC. You can turn "Almost" Any Game into VR.

Example :



Elden Ring in VR.
Alot game can be "TURN" into VR in PC.
Cyberpunk 2077 too.



Current State, best experience is ( Any PC Supported VR ) + PC
( Quest 2 is cheapest among them + standalone )

Summary is vr now not worth to get?

worth it as an work out equipment.

but if u dont have good pc, leave it

wait till psvr2 release and games support then only said lar is still too early to tell and this time the spec on psvr2 destroy most pcvr spec.

you can have the best spec VR hw out there, but without the sw supports from the devs? it's as good as an expensive paperweight

PSVR1's library is pretty small compared to the rest, it will be difficult to push the sales of the hw without a good library, most of the PSVR1 owners regretted buying it after a while due to limited supported content

and judging from the spec of PSVR2? it won't be as cheap as the PSVR1, probably it will cost around RM2k when launched here, that's the cost of another PS5 console there.

then it's another chicken & egg situation here... low adoptability rate will discourage more dev to come onboard to develop PSVR2 contents, low contents will discourage more sales, then Sony sweeping PSVR2 under the carpet like what they did with PS Vita

as i said wait till release then only judge the damn thing is not yet release u all predict it will fails hard lol

bcos almost everyone is pessimistic based on Sony's past record

that true but i like them to success bcos VR games is damn fun to play previously due to complicated setup i give up but right now with psvr2 would be the perfect vr experience..

PS5 itself future is questionable.
PSVR2??


Mark my word.
PSVR2 = DoA.

Death on Arrival.

The market REALLY DONT need another Ultra Highspec VR.

Quest 2 by far is the only Hardware driving the Entine VR Gaming community....


in VR Gaming industry, u need :

1. Nice VR but at very affordable Price. ( Quest 2 only, HTC,MS,Samsung all helang price )
2. High Number of user. ( Quest 2 Highest )
3. Attract more dev to create VR Content ( You need user quantity )

Bonus
VR with multipurpose ( Quest allow connection on PC/laptop open tons of possibilities )
PSVR? for Playstation ONLY



PS5 = low user count.
every PS5 user = PSVR2 user??? No, i guess less than 1% will convert into PSVR2

unless Sony Inhouse, if you are dev, which platform u choose to develop your next VR title??

Playstation itself already in Dead End, as Xbox play a different tactic in console market (subscription)
Steamdeck, Switch already tell next big console = Handheld....
VR will continue to live in PC space.

errrr xbox dont have VR so for console is only sony ps5 so for me it will survive as long the price for the psvr2 is not high so i think sony have chance to strike big as xbox or nintendo is not into vr..and vr in pc is damn expensive compare to ps5.

Are they mostly single player or can play with friend like 2 player game?

Mostly family fun games or serious games in vr?

all got firewall is 1 of the best multiplayer FPS for VR and a lot single and multiplayer announced also some of the old psvr games already announced will be patch to work on psvr2 my only concern is the price since our RM is so weak.

i have VR MMO, zenith

quite different experience.........

you TALK to person infront you. and you hear people talking when passby



most fun?

combat. you swing the sword.

PSVR has PC support albeit limited so I'm hoping Sony will fully support it on PC too so that it can compete with other PCVR/Quest considering the price will be more or less same like Quest 2.

I'm actually using my Q2 for cheap alternative to motion capture to create animations for my games.

So the official price gonna be RM2799

Preorder opening on 15 Nov, who's gonna preorder it?

With that price... Doubt even scalpers will buy it or not

what the.... really cost an arm n a leg. have to play the waiting game, see how psvr2 performance

unless Sony make it 100% compatible on PC, else they gonna have a very hard time selling them with that price

but knowing Sony, if they make it 100% compatible on PC, meaning that's the lost revenue on potential software sales on PS5, so it's very unlikely they'll do that

the most will be unofficial 3rd party supports on PC

anyway...the diehard fanbois are already defending the price and kept comparing with PC

my prediction is Sony will have no choice but to reduce the price after a short while due to lackluster sales due to limited contents, small PS5 ownership, expensive... and die a slow death just like PSV

not surprise with that price as it's technology has surpass slightly other VR model. it very depend on japan and US market i believe. malaysia is just small potato market.

but still... play mechwarrior with VR in 1st person view should be very cool.

So in order to play psvr2 u need invest in ps5 also. The whole system gonna cost rm5k 😯

It's T20 entertainment system.

its actually the same as quest 2 or pico 4 also.
yes they are standalone, but graphic cnt b compared to vr on proper pc also
so if u wan real full vr experience with awesome graphics then u need a very powerful pc setup also
but as a sony fanboi myself, i will still say avoid psvr2 coz u will be missing out a lot of great vr titles that are available on steam

Hi anyone pre ordering psvr2 today? I never own any vr sets before and I am hoping to get some opinion for this as it’s quite expensive.

as both owner of PSVR1 and Quest 2, I would advise you to wait and see first

but if you got extra cash to burn and FOMO, then just jump in and preorder

FYI, VR experience is not for everyone, some only can stand it for few minutes before the nausea/dizziness kicks in, while some has no problems at all
best is you try out the your friends VR or those demo units in shops first to gauge your tolerance level

yup... i'm playing the waiting game. in addition, i haven't get my PS5/ PS5 pro yet... wait and see whether worth the wait and price or not

maybe i'll have no problem in my 20s... but now... near 40s already... not sure suit me or not although i'm very looking forward for VR experience for space combat and mechwarrior

Sorry to ask, does it feel like I am sitting in the very front row of cinema with lots of visual information around me to absorb?

The only thing that holds me back a little is the price. I just can't just justify Sony's pricing strategy anymore, it feels like they have taken us Sony gamers for granted.

Lol, I am not far off from that mark. Getting older but the kid in me still want to try out new things

Edited: can pre order at Sony store website already

I'm already waay past 40s but I never had any motion sickness before, so VR is not an issue for me all this while, just can't use the PSVR1 for too long due low refresh rate
some ppl tends to get dizzy over fast moving games like driving or flying, the trick is to have a fan blowing directly at you so you still maintain that sense of direction in VR world, lesser chance to get dizzy

IMO, that's the Sony's strategy all these while, they knew their fans will buy in for sure no matter what price they put

trying out new things for us, guess that's our "revenge" for our "poorer" childhood time, got plenty of time but no money to try those
but now we got the financial means already, then try kau-kau

but most of the time it's just a fallacy and will have a buyer's remorse after a while

i waiting for full review before jump in lol hopefully is as good as i hope.

1 matter undeniable that we still wanna try new stuffs as VR is always a dream to gamer.

wow... even we have financial means time is always a factor, and worried about kiddos damage the headset.

this makes me wanna try meta quest 2, trying to look for 2nd hand 64gb since i'm a light gamer nowadays. but if require to works better with PC for better graphic games, i might consider wait for PSVR2 as i have a 7 years old PC with average spec enough for me to watch movies/ anime and browse internet. If comes to gaming, i would rely more on my PS4 pro/ PS3 and N. switch.

time & energy bro... that's something we lacked once you've crossed the "threshold"

gaming wise... sometimes you just don't have the mood or energy, sometimes I stared at all my consoles and look at the game libraries deciding what to play, then they stared back, then I decided just go to bed Zzz...

sometimes its just easier to watch netflix before sleeping. hahaha.

ya, wont deny energy is another factor after whole day working/ shopping with the kiddos and stuffs.

at times i tried to spare 30min gaming each day... but that habit wouldn't last long coz end up sleep with the kiddos when put them to sleep

Ya lol. That's why mobile games are much more convenient.

mobile games another section bro. you can't compare PS games graphic with mobile games. in fact i stopped mobile games long time ago, time consuming and get bored fast.
