NickButera Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Anyone else have one? I know three was a thread and a few owners in the last forum Up till recently it was mostly gimmicky. But with Bethesda announcing Skyrim VR (Nov 17th) and DOOM VFR (Dec12th), and Battlefront 2 to have having some VR capabilities, and the rumor of even Fallout 4 VR leaked for PSVR, there seems to be some legitimate games coming. I recently found a copy of Farpoint with the Aim controller. VR in general was a game changing experience, like nothing I've ever experienced. But adding the VR Aim Controller gun took it to a whole new level. There's not much else that can compare to VR and being able to look down the scope of your own gun. Shoot at something at your foot without looking, or to the side as soon as you see it pop up, as you flinch away in shock and shoot to the left Which btw, for the longest time the Aim Controller was OOS, but I'm finding them in stock now, Best Buy has them right now (If you're a PSVR owner, you need this. Go buy this right now.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Mine has been gathering dust. I'm really only interested in horror games, and if I buy a game I'm going to buy a hard copy. I'll eventually be getting Resident Evil, Farpoint and maybe a few others, but I'd like to get it setup better and have it in a bigger area where I can really enjoy it. All I've really been using mine for is the VR Experience promotions from movies like It and Annabelle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Just got Resident Evil whatever number that you can play in VR. Going to try it tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matts4313 Posted September 5, 2017 Share Posted September 5, 2017 Interested in this. Ive heard not good things about PSVR. But, I want to make the dive and give it a shot. Was planning on ordering it for my phone first, but might consider this if you all think its worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickButera Posted September 11, 2017 Author Share Posted September 11, 2017 With the recent price drop for the bundle, and the games coming out in the next 2 months (Bravo Team and DOOM - using the aim controller and SKYRIM) there almost seems to be enough content to justify getting one of these now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waiting for the price to go down or the novelty to wear off on some kid on CL lol. Then yep, I'm on it. This is part of the reason I got the PS4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacReady Posted November 18, 2017 Share Posted November 18, 2017 For anybody on the fence about VR, I will say that when it comes to playing horror games, there is no substitute. I go into movies and video games WANTING to get scared because I absolutely LOVE getting scared. I can say that there has never been an entertainment experience in my life (TV, film, video games) where I was more scared than playing Resident Evil: Biohazard. It's on a completely different level than anything non-vr movies or video games can provide because you are IN THE ****. Movies have had a more lasting scare (made me scared after the movie was over), but while actually playing or in the middle of something, nothing was more scary than playing RE in VR. Jump scares in it literally made me yell out loud. PSVR was worth what I paid for it just to play Resident Evil alone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jump scares in it literally made me yell out loud. PSVR was worth what I paid for it just to play Resident Evil alone. Agreed. Horror games are ultimately what the PSVR was tailor-made for IMO, RE7 and Until Dawn: Rush of Blood are the two reasons I picked mine up to begin with. It makes me wish we would've gotten an Alien: Isolation VR and Silent Hills wasn't cancelled. Just the mere thought of seeing the Xenomorphs and this: in VR makes me all the more eager to put dem goggles on in anticipation of getting a heart attack. Don't get me wrong, I love the thrill of going into horror movies expecting to be petrified, too, it's just that not a lot of movies really do it, anymore for me. Dead Silence scared the shyt out of me to the point I literally had to shield my eyes during some scenes (I think you know which parts I'm talking about) and STILL had trouble sleeping for a couple nights afterwards (of course, it didn't help that I had the balls to watch it all the way downstairs at night alone with no lights on), Conjuring 2 left me on the edge of my seat and had others jumping out of their seats around me in the theater and Insidious Part 3 definitely had some moments that made me go "holy shyt". Other than that, I can't think of a single movie, old or recent that made me feel legitimately scared in the slightest, not in this day and age. And the funny thing is, James Wan was involved in all 3 of those movies because he's the master of horror. He's the modern day Wes Craven. It almost makes me shudder to think just how batshyt scary P.T. (and, by extension, Silent Hills) would've been if it were him co-directing alongside Hideo instead of GDT.

kingseanjohn Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 I've been debating getting one this weekend. Target has them for 199.99 Black Friday. But with the lack of games I don't think I'm going to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 I got the Skyrim bundle. Really pumped to try that. NO WAY am I ever putting a horror game in. I hate that stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
