Tetris Effect Announced for PS4 & PS VR, From the Creator of Rez & Lumines

£250 For the PSVR, Resi 7, Superhot, and the Moves. Two fantastic 'Game's making a great deal.

And a days of play sale to fill up with extras. Looking at it from the outside in, that's a good deal if you have a ps4 and were thinking about the leap.

Where's that deal mate?

I am so on the fence of finally giving VR a go even though I keep telling myself I won't use it enough and that I'm going in expecting the resolution to be too low for my tastes but.. I still want to try it

The purple shirts? been a while since I gamed in public.

How much space is actually needed for this, would probably be only able to be used in a bedroom about 4 feet from tv

Picking one of these up tomorrow, £200 was the sweet spot for me, already have a few games on the dashboard with the VR symbol next to them does this mean that they are ready to be played in VR ?

Any recommendations for games I should get ?

I got a good deal from Very, PSVR V2 with two worlds and camera, 2 motion controls, Skyrim VR and Superhot VR £233

That's probably not enough, it won't like it when you reach forwards. Sony recommend 6 feet between camera and the headset, plus you want an arm's reach around you.

Some I have:

Batman Arkham VR - because Batman. It's a great game too, with a surprisingly solid story - does help if you've played one or more of the Arkham games
Job Simulator - great fun, great demo for people to try
Rick and Morty: Virtual Rickality - Rick and Morty version of Job Simulator, if that floats your boat. More fun, but much, much wronger - you also need space to step side-to-side
Headmaster - football heading game, dead easy to pick up and play
Superhot VR - makes standard Superhot look stupid and pointless
Cold Iron - Cowboy quick draw puzzle game - way more fun (and much harder) than it sounds
Accounting+ - completely wrong, but in the best way possible. If you let your kids play this, they will tell their mum all the horrible things they did and you will get in trouble. Still worth it.
Until Dawn: Rush of Blood - because you need one game where people will scream and fall off chairs. And shooting is great in VR

E3 was very disappointing with regards to psvr. Sony didnt show anything during the conference.

It was abysmal. Still waiting for Ace Combat 7 VR.....

Bought a couple of games which were on sale at the PSVR store.

Raw data - which is fantastic and definitely worth buying for the £12 it's on sale for. It's a wave shooter but polished and expanded to an incredibly high level.

Sprint Vector - I've only played it for about 30 mins but I'm struggling to get the hang of the controls. Maybe it'll sink in after a while. Not sure about the game so far.

Is Sparc worth buying for a tenner?

I hope this isn’t a bad sign. Unlikely but you never know.

Bethesda are showing support with doom and Wolfenstein which is really cool. I might be the only one but I would like to try the original doom and wolf (and duke nukem) in vr. Maybe one day.

It does feel a bit like PSVR is on a downhill slope, the games that do support it seem to be either short/lightweight or tack on support without really adapting strongly for VR. There are definitely some exceptions but right now it feels like PSVR is still a bit of a gimmick for those with the disposable income rather than the essential accessory that we'd hoped it might become. For a similar price I'd say most people would be better off putting their gaming budget towards a Switch or XB1, obviously if you have both already then the disposable income is unlikely to be as much of an issue.

DJMONDY · 16 Jun 2018 at 08:10

The only real full game is still RE7 isn’t it? It lasts around 8-10hrs like a normal game would and it’s not classed as an “experience”. It’s bad considering how long psvr has been out now.

I wouldn't get your hopes up about Ace Combat as from what I've heard only part of the game will be playable in VR

I'm still pretty happy with my PSVR headset overall though as I only bought it recently and between Resident Evil 7, Wipeout VR and Skyrim there are more than enough AAA games to play out at the moment to justify the £250 price tag i can be had for these days IMO.

Here's a top 30-ish list from a group I'm a member of for anyone looking for tips. Loads of decent games out there. It does feel like the release schedule is winding down somewhat now though but I guess with the PS4 only likely having another year or two of life we probably wont see that many more PS4 VR games either which is disappointing.

I got a PS 4 Pro and PSVR last week and have only really played Driveclub VR on it. Really enjoying it (once I got over the slight nausea). A lot of things look to be just demo's of VR, but this is an actual fun racing game. Video review in the link in my sig if anyone is interested.

Just a heads up for anyone thinking of getting PSVR and the days for play sale didn't swing it, Tesco Direct are closing and are having an online clearance sale, £179 for the PSVR vr worlds bundle, thats a great deal.

Anyone tried watching a world cup match on PSVR yet?
