Just picked up Arizona Sunshine, will have to see how it is tonight and try out Aim control as well as the move controllers.

I've been waiting for a price on this as reviews I've seen claims it's ok for £20 but £30 is a bit much for what you get, intrested in you thoughts on the aim controller compared to farpoint

Its not as polished as farpoint, only played for just over 1/2 hour so far. Its a good game, good use of the aim controller but feels a bit clunky at times, you can tell it wasn't made for the Aim controller and they have bolted it on.

Farpoint feels and plays a lot better than this one does.

Decided to grab the PSVR today

It was coming with Farpoint an VR worlds. Already set it up, and updating the software

Is lighter than what I thought, and very comfortable even if I am wearing glasses. Had tried Rift in last year, and wasnt that comfortable.
Time to set it up for the PC also

Btw, do you know of any good wheel/pedal sets for driving games that are compatible with both PS4 and PC? I bet the driving games experience with VR, going to be great.
(need also to get Valkyrie)

The Logitech G29 I think it's called, usually in a sale at some point for less than £150.

Great wheel..

Cheers. I will assess how it goes next few days.

PSVR update. Put the VR world selected Ocean Descent, and had to turn it off the moment the shark pulled half the cage.
Seriously the experience up to that moment was "wow", and after that moment "holy ****, need to go to toilet".

It scared the **** out of me. Must say, WOW what an experience, and not going to play Ocean Descent again.
I want to sleep at night.

So I am not the only one. Indeed one side of the brains knows that is just graphics in a game/presentation, but the other side of it is scared stiff.

Anyone tried Paranormal Activity? Is it any good?

I'm sure there's another horror due soon that looks better.

I was round at a friends house this morning and he showed me his vr rig on his PC, very immersive, thoroughly enjoyed it, played some robot fps, dead cowboy fps and a rolling demo of huge monsters fighting over a city.

I've got a PS4 pro and am sorely tempted to jump into vr, what would I need to buy?

The headset, a camera, what about controllers? Do you need the gun for fps or will a pair of controllers work OK? Thx!

xxalxx · 2 Sep 2017 at 14:12

Headset, Camera & move controllers, gun for certain games if you go that far
