PSVR 2 Review - A Game Changer For VR!

[@iansarmiento23]

Imagine if a developer made heat vision where lasers come from your eyes, that would be so sick!

[@sheiryard8149]

The same thing came to my mind as well

[@Tezorus]

I don't own a ps5, but being a pcvr enthusiast, I can only hope it helps make VR more mainstream and accessible.

[@sevn8757]

Even if it is a great experience ( and it looks like it is) a standalone headset is probably the best bet for that. I'm on PC myself and I'd have to buy a ps5 plus the headset and on top of that this wouldn't work with steam.

[@Tezorus]

@sevn8757 Ho, yeah, sure. When you're used to pcvr It's probably better to stick with it. Yet for someone who only plays games on ps5, it will allow a quick and simple entry into the vr world.

[@sqlevolicious]

Less accessible because it's connected to a console thsy not many people have though. If anything, console VR only further kills VR mainstreamability. Most people have a capable gaming pc thanks to the pandemic forcing people to get a PC. Then you have quest 2, which is only $300. PCVR games are all incredibly cheap too. PSVR2 is worse for VR accessibility.

[@sqlevolicious]

@Tezorus which is hardly anyone considering very few people own a PS5, and those people that do, are not all going to get a $600+ VR system they more than likely won't like using. On top of the added expense of PSVR2 games. It's not going to sell well, and Sony knows that. Which is why they are not pushing any marketing for it outside of some small vr youtubers and a tiny Sony direct video on youtube.

[@suparki123]

I know this is unlikely to happen, but I really hope that some of those games will eventually come to PC.

Eye tracking being used as aim assist is pretty genius actually. Wish I could afford this thing

It is buying stuff over again that bothers me...have most titles they will likely have except exclusives so for me its not the unit price as much as PC compatibility. If I'm going to drop more than 1000 on system and some games to use it, I think the new Bigscreen Beyond VR headset is more interesting. It seems like its all about what you already are invested in. Good luck with VR in the future.

[@CHROME-COLOSSUS]

This might be THE best, most thoughtful and down-to-earth early-impressions review of PSVR2 that I’ve seen. I truly appreciate that you didn’t parrot the weirdly omnipresent narratives of it being “expensive” or of having a “thin launch lineup”. 🙏

[@htpkey]

Loved your PSVR2 review! I'm really glad you were honest in mentioning both the pro's and con's, this review didn't feel like a cheap commercial. Most of the issues can be easily fixed with software updates. I will be getting one when it releases!

[@VirtualRealityOasis]

Thanks mate! Enjoy it! []-)

[@stuartburns8657]

Not so sure a few software updates will fix some of the issues. Ghosting at 120hz is simply a lack of system resource. Personally I get wobbly when teleporting, so always use smooth motion. Screen door effect. Never bothered me with the Q1, but that's a physical attribute of the lenses. Sweet spot difficulties have been mentioned by most reviewers, sure you'd eventually nail it and get used to it. Controller tracking (given seemingly more front focused cameras) seems a step backwards. That HAS the scope for SW to make slightly better imo. Like all of VR, we're struggling for quality content, and with CotM being 8-10 hours to finish, it's content starvation and developer apathy which is the biggest challenge still. PCVR (excluding the varying flat screen mods) feels pretty much dead, and Quest content is stagnant. Hopefully Sony's latest efforts will be a defibrillator VR 👍

[@gameofpawns2264]

One of my favorite VR games is Untill Dawn: Rush of Blood, glad to see they made a spiritual successor.

[@deliriousvrc5252]

Something you might find interesting, Sony is working with VRchat to make their new body trackers compatible with Quest 2, and it’s been confirmed the trackers do work with PSVR 2 also. Makes me excited to think these full body trackers may come to PSVR 2 and given Sonys recent interest in VRchat hopefully we will see VRC as a PSVR title soon as well!

[@rodmunch69]

If they put effort into VR they'd actually be making AAA VR games, not just adding some DLC or patches to non-VR games. They're actually putting in a very lazy, low-risk effort. The only company putting actual money into VR is Quest, unfortunately. I mean just take this Sony VR headset, it's what, $600, and it's just a wired screen with some controllers attached? They couldn't even bother getting rid of the wire? This is very much a low risk, low effort job by Sony. Hopefully other companies end up making some AAA games for it, but if Sony won't even put any money or effort into it, I doubt anyone else will. Nope, you'll just get more Beat Saber games and some half-assed patches for existing games.

[@SuperNova-py1ec]

The graphics in Horizon COTM looked stunning. One clip near the end of this video was breath-taking, which of course we are only seeing as a 2D image. Cannot wait to experience this myself one day. I have just bought a PS5 so cannot afford to get the headset yet. Just having to make do with my PSVR1 for the time being.

Welcome brother, I am sooo excited for you. I couldn't imagine never having experienced VR to go straight to a PSVR2. I hope Sony is able to bring Half-Life Alyx to the system because you are in for a treat. I think the VR Star Wars games are overlooked...as a kid of the 80s they were a revelation to me! Give yourself time to adjust to VR. Please don't give up if you initially experience motion sickness. If you do feel it,stop and try again the next day. After a bit of time you will have your digital legs under you. You may even experience what many new VR players feel, feeling strange after you are back in meatspace. Enjoy this wild feeling because it is fleeting! PLUR! See you downstream soon!

[@TheSkyHive]

Dude, be careful with RE8. I know it looks like any other experience when you watch people play it in VR, but let me warn you...IMO, Horror is the most immersive genre in VR. You will not believe how scared you can't be from a bunch of ones and zeros. I legit almost had a heartattack playing Dreadhalls and that was on a 3 dof Oculus GO!

Thanks for sharing your experience. We've been following you for a long time, actually since you started. Mentioned once in comments how wife and I have passed the 65 yr mark so we thought it would be good for us to follow certain sites to help us along. If I could say, what a joy it's been to see you develop your passion for gaming and VR and where it has taken you. So happy for you! Though we don't own a Quest (never have) what we do have - started with PSVR1 and Samsung Odyssey, then Valve Index, HP Reverb G2, HTC Vive Pro 2 and our daily driver now, Varjo Aero - we are excited to see PSVR2. We gave PS4 and PSVR1 setup to son and grandkids, but now hope someone can get PSVR2 working on PC in the near future. As an aside, Question; Bigscreen Beyond VR being so tiny, and me needing 125 readers with Aero, is that an issue with their VR setup?

They’ve been cranking out trailer after trailer for games since launch and everything shown so far is set to release within the launch window of 1 month. In 1 month of release it will already have a bigger game library than the stand alone quest that’s been out for years.

Thank you for the review. Thank you for touching on the Cinematic mode. So far i've not seen anyone else touch on it. Would have been nice to have heard just a smidge more, for example. What did you think of the quality of the image? Did you watch any youtube/video content? Appreciate you sticking up for the cable and talking about the value for money aspect. So many reviewers from other 'mainstream' outlets seem to be contradicting themselves a fair bit with this aspect. Also using the Cable as a detractor. (Did you see The Verge's Review!? Jeezus) anyway thank you for your honest opinions. I'm certainly not going in blinkered that this thing is going to be completely perfect but it's nice to hear it's a worthwhile investment.

[@Greydawg]

I'm compelled to say *thank you* for not striking the PSVR2's review down a notch or two simply because of the price of the product itself. I've seen countless reviews that factor the price tag explicitly as a negative, which I find absolutely conflicting because the PS5 itself didn't get dinged for technically requiring an external monitor (i.e., if you want to play PS5 in 4K, you must also spend more money on a TV or display, & likely vastly more for a 4K display). What's worse is if we were comparing the PSVR2 with any comparable display, it's essentially an inescapable steal at 2K & 120hz for $500. 🤷🤷‍♂🤷‍♀

I find double image without smooth turning rather concerning.

[@hughmac7423]

Come on, what is the max IPD setting? I know the headset doesn't tell you, but can't you measure it with a tape measure to the centre of the lense housing? I have a large IPD, and I need to know before I even think of getting this headset, although I want to get one, but it would be a waste for me if the IPD is too small and if the lense have a small sweet spot.

So cool you got all the questions I would of asked great work Mike much appreciated. I feel now can make informed choice Thanks very much.

[@wattouk]

Nice review. For some people, this might be their very first VR headset. For those I would recommend looking at a few beginners guides. (maybe Mike should make an updated one) Especially if you are new to VR and have bought the horizon bundle. Take it easy at first. Motion sickness can kick in pretty quickly when you are a beginner. If you start to get light headed, stop immediately and take a break. Worst thing you can do is try and power through it, as it just makes it way worse. Then you will be out for the rest of the day. Getting the sweats is one of the first signs. It may take some time, but the more you play, the quicker you will get used to it. Once you have your VR legs though, nothing can stop you. Nothing in VR makes me motion sick now. But I am an 8 year VR veteran.

Great Review Mike ! TY. Hope you see this cause I had a question about the adjustable lens for people with very narrow IPD(58) and the bridge of my nose hitting the lens housing. Like you I NEVER want to back the lenses off my eyes, since it gives the best vision / immersion. But I have seen on other headsets (Quest one) where the bridge of my nose would slowly push the IPD wider and wider quickly as I play, since quest one didn't have "locked" IPD sections. Do you think this will be a problem with PSVR2? Or can you not push the lenses very easily by accident? Thank You again for your coverage! Great to see VR getting more great Hardware!

Good review. Seems like a well thought through headset. Not that I'm likely to get it or a PS5, but it's got promising ideas that I hope PC headsets will adopt.

[@sqlevolicious]

Eye tracking is not important to anyone. Vive Pro Eye has been around for years and no vr game studios care about Eye tracking outside vrchat and Facebook horizons. The rest of the PSVR2s features can be found on any PCVR system and standalone.

@@sqlevolicious Again with the nonsense, stop your BS my guy. You're not convincing anybody lmao😂 All reviewers including Digital foundry and NXgamer have tested eyetracking and foveated rendering and they say it's a gamechanger. Even the pavlov devs said with eyetracking and FoVR they are getting 10% better performance than their high end PC! It not being used in PCVR is because non of these companies give a shit about PCVR. We are lucky to have the modding community otherwise PCVR would've been burried a long time ago. So again stop your bullshit crusade and go play your little PCVR library and go wave your knuckles around😂

​@@sqlevolicious eye tracking could be really important if it allows demanding games to run at decent framerate on ps5 equivalent hardware, it means not having to buy both an expensive headset and a very expensive graphics card

05:10 These OLED panels are not pentile, they are RGB, so the SDE should be the same as on LCD. Was this a mistake? Or is it the case that OLED pixels, even when RGB, are furthered spaced apart? Thanks.

Here we go!!!!!!! The single charging cable is baffling though, I brought that up as one of my silly concerns on my podcast and thought I was probably just being paranoid but it turns out I was right to be, dunno how I'm gonna charge them both at the same time.

[@Robert-px7fw]

Why is this even an issue in reality? If you have any spare USB C (fast charging) leads from mobile phones that are not being used. I have acquired several over the years. They obviously can be used. I charge my dual sense controller either separately from the wall socket or an extension lead if the PS 5 usb C port is charging my Pulse 3d headset at the same time. Any good quality fast charging USB C lead will suffice. Everyone thinks they need a dedicated charging unit for the Sense controllers but this is not correct. A simple fast charging USB C lead will suffice. Hopefully one less silly concern? Hope that's helpful?

Excellent review, Mike. Looking forward to getting mine. Will you be doing a review of Horizon CotM this week?

[@VirtualRealityOasis]

Yes, hopefully over the weekend. It’s excellent! []-)

[@lrstudio3221]

@@VirtualRealityOasis good to hear! Will be looking for your review. I've watched others, but your reviews always seem to be pretty level headed and not biased due to hype, etc. I've come to rely on them for an accurate look at things. 👍

Can't wait till it arrives. My first VR set so I'm happy to see the positive reviews. I only hope to someday play HL Alyx on this thing too.

[@joelface]

Looks like it's going to be REALLY awesome. Hope it manages to get a huge install base, so we can get lots and lots of new VR content! Also, this is thinking way ahead, but seems like the kind of device that might still run well on the PS6, considering it's basically the TV, not the gaming system itself.

[@LinuxCoder-Root]

I tested Quest for 2 weeks, then returned. And Sony VR2 for months until now... Sony VR2 is so perfect. The only issue is VR2 games is limited (around 20 games) for now.

[@sicKENasty]

Thank you Mike for this video. My pre-order has pulled today which has me super excited. Hopefully we can get a second headset so my (18 year old) son can play with me. Sony limited the preorders to one per household which was kind of a bummer, but hey, I get mine first. Ha Ha. Solid review. I can't wait.

[@VirtualRealityOasis]

You and your son are gonna have blast mate. Do you plan to play any multiplayer stuff together?? Demeo and racing in GT7 would be really fun! []-)

[@aaronclay4665]

i think they did the one per household cuz of the scalpers problem with the ps5.

[@fffrrraannkk]

Are you sure playing flat games through the headset is only 1080p? Digital Foundry said it will display games up to 4k@120hz in their review.

[@henfromhell]

Great review, Defo convinced me i will get one in the next month or so, plus the real game changing element of this is devs can now get their teeth into much higher grade PC level VR Games! Good for everyone and ports!. I hope the ghosting when smooth moving can be fixed with software maybe with some FSR to smooth things out? I am also glad you touched on the using the headset as a tv replacement playing flat 2D PS5 games, though 1080p?? jez I hope this also improves with software!

[@ironicanimations]

This PSVR 2 is everything I imagined and I’m so glad it’s finally here 😊 I’m not gonna get it cuz, I don’t have a PS5, but this looks amazing!! In the near future, if someone is able to make a mod or plug-in to use the PSVR2 for PCVR, it’s going to be game changing-

The ps5 library needs games like vrchat and gorilla tag to succeed

Great review as always..Your the best!!! Is all the content like watching movies via Netflix downscaled to 1080p on the big screen? Or just gaming?

[@OliNorwell]

Definitely seems like a game changer!

[@IanStevensZA]

I am concerned with what you said about the small sweetspot. It was the reason i sent back the HP reverb g2. Could you possibly elaborate on how it affects your experience? I am worried that due to the eye tracking we are encouraged to look off center to follow things but then are wandering off of the sweetspot just to face annoyance with the lack of sharpness.

[@sidney1234usc]

I don't understand why they just didn't put cameras in the controllers smh hopefully in the future they come out with some controllers that track themselves I wouldn't mind paying for that upgrade.

[@kraenk12]

Only headset that has that costs 1500 dollars. Cost is why.

[@deadringer28]

I think they have to enable a new eye setup if you touch the dial. In our house, the IPD will vary a lot between 5 players.

[@thehumblewolf]

Smooth turning issues IS a deal breaker for me.
