Posted February 24, 2016 That would be a great price. To be honest, whatever price it is I'll likely get it. I'm tempted to make a VR short film. I know a few people working for some big companies, and the cameras are surprisingly affordable. Be interesting to see what distribution channels are like.

Posted March 2, 2016 EA dude speaks about VR support. He said before a company like EA would consider spending $50-$100 million to build a full game for VR, the market size needs to grow to the level of consoles. He described the console markets today as "large," estimating PS4/Xbox One to make up 60 million and 150 million-plus for PS3/Xbox 360. Also during the presentation, Jorgensen revealed that about 25 percent of all EA game sales are full-game downloads. This figure can vary by title and geography, as well as bandwidth speed and cashless transaction availability. It is up from the 20 percent figure disclosed by EA in November, though that figure (expected to grow to 40 percent in the coming 3-4 years) pertained specifically to PS4 and Xbox One. I guess EA are playing the waiting game to see how successful VR is going to be. Best course of action, TBH. They are raking it in with their software, both console and mobile, so there's no need to take any unnecessary risks at this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 2, 2016 Its good that there are teams working on AAA titles for VR devices, rather than just gimmick style demos, but that article seemed more about reputation than actual exciting gameplay. Plus those 360 degree shots look awful. I doubt it looks anywhere near that bad when you are actually using it. If I was the dev I don't think I would want any sites to be using those shots.

Posted March 15, 2016 Anyone got any predictions then? I'm gonna say £299 on its own, £350 with 2 move controllers bundled in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2016 Anyone got any predictions then? I'm gonna guess that RIGs will bundled with the headset and the basic unit will be £350. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2016 I'm gonna guess that RIGs will bundled with the headset and the basic unit will be £350. Yeah I have seen that they've put out a tweet that there will be big RIGS news today. People just dont seem to be convinced that it'll be bundled because it looks like a proper game. I think its definitely a strong possibility myself. I bet Sony would love to use the game to attempt to get a foothold in esports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bet Sony would love to use the game to attempt to get a foothold in esports. Colin and Greg were talking about it the other week on PS I love You XOXO and they were saying the same thing. It's a good showcase for the system and it will help give them a push in terms of eSports. With gGuerrilla Games tweeting about it I think it's certainly a strong possibility.

Posted March 15, 2016 Where does the quality of the PSVR rank? Is it above Gear Vr but below the other two? Is it the same as Gear? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2016 Where does the quality of the PSVR rank? Is it above Gear Vr but below the other two? Is it the same as Gear? As far as I can tell it'll most likely be closer to Oculus and Vive but will have certain aspects capped to let it get the required fps with the lesser power of the PS4 in comparison to PCs.

Posted March 15, 2016 (edited) £350 for us UK people. Thought it would be too much to ask for a straight dollar to pounds conversation. [tweet]709848974371516416[/tweet] Edited March 15, 2016 by Hero-of-Time Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2016 I'll be preordering when I get the chance anyway. I'll decide later on in the year if that means cancelling my Oculus Rift preorder or just end up keeping both. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 15, 2016 More than the cost of the console is too much, I'll stick with playing games on my HDTV for a while longer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted March 15, 2016 I'll be interested to just use the cinematic mode that Andrew House talked about to play regular PS4 games through the headset. I hope they put in the same amount of effort that other VR apps have for stuff like that and actually model the seats around you etc. I love sitting in the cinema watching stuff with my Gear VR on lol.
