Also, I obtained a disc containing Infinite Warfare for tenbux. I am on the 3rd mission and despite the fact that I am playing as SUPEREARTH operator imperialists against galactic communards the sheer spectacle of it all is indeed based. I'll post my final impressions when I wrap it up, which probably won't take long knowing this series.

I think it's the best in the series by miles and it looks insane on PS5

It’s funny that they did infinite warfare to cash in on the space game fever stoked up by star citizen and now nobody cares and star citizen still doesn’t exist

I preorderes the VR2 in November. Can't wait to experience GT7 in VR with my wheel and pedals. The better image quality is going to be a gamechanger, VR2 was a strain on the eyes after a while due to the grainy quality. Andhopefully Squadrons gets an update. Being tipped out of the Star Destroyer in the Tie and "falling" to the planet was crazy. That game with better graphics would be mind blowing. Edit: NMS is much more fun in VR, still not a great survival game, but the sense of the planets' size and everything is really cool. Maybe Green Hell VR comes to PSVR2, that game is almost perfect. Edit2: Jup GH is confirmed for PSVR2. Hopper fucked around with this message at 15:18 on Jan 12, 2023 |

I'm excited for Horizon too although I already know I'm gonna put it on whatever the easiest setting is cause my brain isn't good at oh no a thing is attacking me in VR. I keep forgetting about NMS and then getting excited again because I've never played it and I'm easily impressed by cool alien worlds to explore. Ragnarock I already love on Quest as a rhythm game more focused on metal/celtic music/basically just more my kind of music than Beat Saber and Audica, I'm really looking forward to having nicer graphics and a comfier headset for it. Is Skyrim worth it for someone who loved Morrowind waaaay back in the day but hasn't touched Elder Scrolls at all since then? The snowy mountainy sort of setting doesn't do much for me and everyone always says Skyrim needs modding but on the other hand it is a big game full of stuff to do that I could experience for the first time.

BeanpolePeckerwood posted:Currently installing Stranger of Paradise. Menu music goes extremely hard lol Its funny because the ps4 version is smaller at like 40 gigabytes or so. So they've obviously hosed up the delta patching or something for the ps5 so it has to install the base version and then the fixed one on top.

Is PSVR2 moving away from the 'click to move ahead 6 feet' mechanic? It was such a fun killer with NMS on version 1.

I honestly am having a hard time playing through Skyrim. Its probably because its such an old game and I am trying to play it like I play Fallout by exploring everything and burning myself out. Its a somewhat different experience from Morrowind in my opinion so you may like it or hate it. But I am leaning on saying to get it. Its a solid game.

You mean in VR? Not the PSVR1 Version anything at 2+ meters distance became a blurry mess, especially the characters. If a PSVR2 Version is released with updated graphics, it could potentially be great. While not pretty it was a surprisingly immersive experience through VR.

Yeah I mean PSVR2, there's no way I'm playing it flatscreen at this point. I thought it had been confirmed for it, just checked again and it looks like not but it's Skyrim so surely it will at some point.

Skyrim is fine. The story and writing is as dry as it gets and repetition sets in after a bit but it still scratches the “wander around and find places and loot everything not nailed down” itch. It’s probably a more “casual” experience than Morrowind but if you can get it on the cheap you’ll probably have fun.

I went in on the Horizon bundle, between my work discount and payment gimmicks I can do with the card my store offers it was a much easier sell to say $120 CAD a month for 6 months instead of an $820 upfront purchase. I'm still disappointed that a lot of VR1 stuff isn't available on the 2 like man I need Rez and Tetris effect but hey NMS and Horizon and RE8 sound good.

I finally got a PS5! I own a PS4 disc copy of Spider-Man (which I never got around to playing) - if I now want to play it and Miles Morales, what's the most cost-effective way to get the next-gen experience?

Subscribe to a month of ps plus extra so you get access to miles morales for as long as you have the sub Then in the main menu of miles morales there’s a button you can press that takes you to a special store page to buy ps5 Spider-Man for 20bux or whatever it costs now Your ps4 disc is now a coaster unless you want to import a ps4 save into ps5 Spider-Man in which case you can use it to export the save and then it’s a coaster. You’ll lose MM when your sub expires but you’ll have ps5 Spider-Man forever because once you buy it from the special menu it becomes it’s own game.

Miles is available on the second tier of PlayStation Plus, it may be cheaper to flat out buy it but if you think you might use online anyway it's not much more than the basic tier.

Nuts and Gum posted:Do you remember what system/game? Some of the early stuff was very rudimentary. I’ve definitely tried the original PSVR at a friend’s, although I don’t remember exactly what I played on it. Mostly tech demo kind of stuff? I’m pretty sure I tried an Occulus too, that wasn’t as bad but the only thing I played on it was Beat Saber. From what I understand the biggest issue to overcome with dizziness/motion sickness in VR is frame rate, which PSVR2 prioritizes. So I’m optimistic, the bigger hurdle might be getting my wife to let me buy it.

Frame rate is important but there are a lot of subtle little things about the camera and motion that you need to get right and not every game does I played a lot of VR and eventually got pretty resistant to motion sickness, with one exception- Battlezone would always, always throw me for a loop. I don't know what it was, just something in the way the tank drove and rotated completely hosed me up and I never got used to it

I’ve played a lot of PC and PSVR and usually turn off all the ‘comfort’ stuff in favour of getting a more immersive experience but RIGS is the only thing that’s ever made me feel sick as a dog after about 5 minutes, dunno why but it absolutely ruined me.

How does the PS4 to PS5 upgrade work? Is there a specific list of games that have free upgrades? I assume I should be able to buy a PS4 game and upgrade to the PS5 version if an upgrade is available?

When you go to their store/game page, you can often click the ... button and see the different versions. If the store title has PS4 & PS5 in its title, when you go to the download screen you can choose which one to download.

obi_ant posted:How does the PS4 to PS5 upgrade work? Is there a specific list of games that have free upgrades? I assume I should be able to buy a PS4 game and upgrade to the PS5 version if an upgrade is available? It can be annoying and varies a bit between games. For disc games: Insert the disc. This will put the PS4 version of the game on your home list of games. If you hover over it, there should be a link in the sort of "page" that loads that will say "free PS5 upgrade" that you can navigate to, select, and then "buy". This will give you a downloadable copy of the game that mostly works like a typical digital purchase (so you don't even need the disc to install), but what gets installed will require the PS4 version's disc to be launchable. For games which have paid upgrades, this may work similarly, but for a small number of games you have to access the upgrade through the PS4 game's menus (this will open a hidden store page giving you access to the upgrade). For digital games you own the PS4 version of, search the store, the PS5 version should show up as free and you can just buy it (and this will give you a proper full digital version, no disc or anything required).

Yes there's some games that you can buy a cheap PS4 version and get a free upgrade vs. paying more for the PS5 version. If there's a game you're curious about, I'd google it first to check the upgrade path.
