How did I not notice this in all my tens of minutes playing this brilliant gem of a game? Gal Gun features an "Oh shit, @apoc81 just walked in!" button:   http://kotaku.com/gal-gun-has-a-panic-button-for-when-mom-walks-in-1787181524    

Another great month where I eagerly await the horrible people who absolutely just have to tell us how bad it is!

  I laughed out loud a little bit. Destiny is Bestiny!    

Enjoyed what I played of the JP demo, but now it'll be nice actually knowing what I'm doing!

 

I saw your other thread on it, and I feel like I should really boot Zombi up...   Adventure Capitalist - Not really a game, but fun, and hard to explain at the same time. I don't even know where to start. You buy stuff, watch meters grow, buy more stuff, hire managers to run them, watch meters grow, and you end up making bazillions of dollars every second. A free game on the PS4, and a lot of fun for not really being a game! 3/5   Adam's Venture Origins - Take the best parts of Tomb Raider, mix them with the best parts of Uncharted, and you'll have this game! Okay, not quite, but it's like those games, just a "B" movie version of those games. Fun. 3/5   NERO - You walk around solving puzzles that you don't need to solve while getting blasted in the pupils with Avatar styled lighting and bloom effects. Headache inducing, buggy, and not interesting. 2/5    

  Gotcha, my feelings exactly. I watched a lot on the Oculus and Vive launches and saw a lot of fun tech, but no games where I felt like I'd be revisiting them often. Not trying to derail this thread, but are there any VR games that you keep coming back to? Are you using your Vive often or does it sit? Eve looks fun but I hear that's short lived. One thing I hope that makes its way to PSVR is tilt brush. With the move controllers, I can't see why that wouldn't work. If RIGS can give a Rocket League vibe, that will have legs. Depending on what's offered, Driveclub VR could be huge. Same with GT. And I'm all for smaller experiences too. If there's not a 360 camera at every sporting event/concert in a few years, I will be disappointed. Let me walk around museums I would never be able to visit too. But give me some games I can play every night too!   I know we're really just in VR's infancy, and I know more fleshed out experiences will make their way out. I hope VR is extremely successful on all fronts!

I'm curious why you're so excited for PSVR @Spork3245 when you have a Vive? I'm pretty excited for PSVR but I don't have a good computer, nor do I want to spend the money building one. But from what I understand, Vive is a far superior product if you're able to run it. I'm definitely not knocking you because I'm right there with you, but I'm genuinely curious why somebody with a Vive is so interested and excited for PSVR?   I'm also new to this whole 'VR' thing so I'm still learning the ins and outs of them. I've never wanted a tech to be so successful in my life. I hope all parties flourish!

60 PSN Thank you!

  AND you can customize what is on that screen AND you can customize the order they appear. Slick, slick, slick.

  You might be right, but I'm kind of far off on a new set anyways so zero homework has been done on my end.   Funny you say you and your gf played Eve/Worlds Shark Tank. Guess what the gf and I played?   Two things I would add to your impressions of PSVR is the blurriness and heat. First, the blurriness. I purposefully wore my glasses because I wanted to see how that felt (great, no issues btw). But I couldn't tell if what I saw was blurry, screen door, or the headset just not adjusted properly (a guy slaps it on me and off I go). So I'd like to give it another go to say for sure. Then the heat. The headset got warm in my few minutes playing. Of course it had been run all day. But I'm curious if you get the heat feeling on your Vive. Putting a small screen in a small box basically against your face, I'm assuming heat is a thing we have to deal with on VR headsets?   Coming in never trying VR before, I was concerned with comfort, nausea, what it's like playing with basically a small screen inches away from your eyes. Other than the heat, I didn't even notice the headset was on. I felt the headphones, but completely forgot the headset was even there. This was after 10 minutes mind you, but the comfort level was there. I would have liked to have messed around with the adjustments to see how sturdy and durable they are, but the guy did that. I did a barrel roll right away and I can tell it was designed to be a slow roll because even one spin was enough to make me not want to do it again!  Otherwise, no nausea.   You know when you give a game to somebody who doesn't normally play and their body reacts with jumps and whatnot? Being a lifelong gamer, I don't get that way. But in the demo, once I turned around and came face to face with a large hull of a ship. As I saw it, I jumped back and said out loud "whoa". That's a pretty significant thing for an old crusty gamer like myself. The immersion is immediate.   tl;dr: PSVR is gud.

  I'd rather spend that extra HDR scratch on hookers and blow.

  Thanks for the support! Unfortunately, not everyone can handle hairy d's and p's in their face.

...with Farming Stimulator 2017!   http://www.playstationtrophies.org/news/news-20214-Farming-Simulator-17-Will-Allow-Mod-Support-On-Xbox-One---PS4.html   In the wake of a few controversial decisions from Sony that are blocking Bethesda from allowing mods on the PS4 versions of Fallout 4 and Skyrim: Special Edition, it looks like an unlikely contender is managing to bypass Sony's strict modding rules... and that happens to be Farming Simulator 17. In a tweet from the game's official account, the developers reveal that mods will be supported on both consoles when the game launches in October:   **if I knew how to embed a twit, it would be here**   Farming Simulator 17 releases October 25th on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC.   I'm going to mod the hell out of my farmer's tits. Billy Bob will have some big 'uns!

I got to try it out this last weekend and I really enjoyed it. I'm definitely getting it at some point but this is my big ????:   Do I need a PS4 Pro for a proper VR experience? Sony is being tight-lipped on what PS4 Pro will add to the PS VR experience. However, all games must run at a constant 90fps on PS VR as per Sony's regulations on PS VR games. It is easy to assume that the PS4 Pro will add either better graphical fidelity (ie: more effects/bells & whistles) or simply clean up the image with a higher rendering resolution or more AA in post-processing - though I must again state, nothing has been stated officially.   I might get a 4k tv in the next year, but no way I'm getting an HDR tv any time soon. So I don't really care about the Pro at this point, but if it makes VR games look like apples and oranges I might be annoyed having to force an earlier than planned upgrade.   I want to be a supporter, but can't be a day one supporter. Maybe day two!
