@JaxonH For what it's worth, setting it up will be quick this time around LOL.

I'm hoping they can stay under 400 for the PSVR2. Anything above 400, and it'll have difficulty getting off the ground.

Heh, yeah, I'm waiting for VR sets to go down in price a lot more before I get one, @JaxonH ..... There do seem to be more & more games for it on Steam now, though! Amy number of them I have to pass on because they require some VR headset to play as well as lots more that support it in addition to normal playing
But Sony seems to be taking it seriously & that'll help all of us, in the end.

Yeah, VR is seriously cool, but due to all the setup required to use it, I just haven't used my PSVR in a long time.

I even managed to track down a pair of Move controllers (they were hard to get ahold of, not sure if they still are), and I did use them for Vader Immortal & Archangel (the latter of which I never finished), but haven't went back sense.

I am thinking about picking up a Quest 2 though (I know it has it's own games, but think you can play more demanding games by plugging it into your PC and use it on Steam?)

I will try VR, some day.

@NeonPizza
I don't take issue with the specs- they seem sufficient to provide a quality experience. My issue is just in the format of VR in general. I really do believe every person should try VR out, cause that first time is an exhilarating experience. But, at least for me, it just wasn't something I ended up wanting to use on a regular basis... or at all, after a certain amount of time.

I acknowledge there is a subset of ppl who are hard-core unto VR, but for most I kind of feel like it's similar to a theme park. Nice to visit once in a while, but not somewhere I'd want to be every day. If you've got the extra cash to burn and just want some cool experiences every once in a while, having a VR set laying around is nice.

Both of mine ended up sitting on the floor for 2-3 years though, never being used. And eventually I just boxed them up. Felt bad since my brother gifted me the Vive. But... if you're not gonna use it, why take up space.

They've also got a poor track record supporting their secondary devices. After Vita and PSVR I decided I wasn't going to trust them for anything beyond home consoles again. Probably best to wait out the generation, see if they actually put quality games on it beyond the first 18 months.

With future updates it could go above 100GB

LOL
Who need Gran Turismo 7 if I can get Race with Ryan on PS4 ?
Way smaller Gigabyte size, way cheaper price.

If it was anyone else, I would've assumed it was sarcasm.

tbh I'd probably play Race with Ryan before GT7 as well. Realistic racers bore me to tears.

Although playing something else entirety would be a better third option, lol.

@Octane
I wasn't make sarcasm joke, I really meant it when I said it.
I would rather play Race with Ryan than Gran Turismo 7 since I like kiddie looking games than hyper ultra realistic racing games.
Realistic racing games are very boring for me, no drama or quirky things from items to be smacked onto opponents. It just driving the car as smooth and as fast as possible. Boring for me.
Race with Ryan have some Mario Kart vibes despite in decent ways, at least something that stole my attention.
Also, Gran Turismo 7 need constant online to play from what I heard. I do not want DRM check and constant online to play an offline game. Obviously, I will pick Race with Ryan over than Gran Turismo 7.

@Anti-Matter We know you always post this stuff with a straight face.

Keep being yourself, sunshine.

Just pre ordered River City Girls Zero for PS4 from Limited Run Games. I ordered two copies so I can place in storage so if something happens like with my copy of the Samurai Shodown Collection, I have another one.

It'd be nice if Destiny 3 was a video game instead of a live service. Maybe under Playstation, that would happen.

I'm kinda iffy on Sony saying they're going to acquire more studios. I'd much rather them not eat tons of studios up, and it'd be great if they leave companies like Square, Capcom, and Sega alone.

@VoidofLight Don't want it either, but after MS bought Zenimax (Bethesda) and Activision-Blizzard, I fear that they're not giving them any choice.

At least Sony has said Bungie's games continue to be multiplat, as opposed to Microsoft keeping them off PlayStation. What a weird turn of events. Who would've thought it was Sony that would continue to allow them to publish wherever they wanted?

But yah, a healthy industry isn't one where most is owned by a few companies. (Large) independent companies are a good thing. But there's fewer of them left every year. It's pretty much inevitable, just look at the film industry.

Peoples are really busy to think about the upcoming Big AAA games for PS4 and PS5 + acquisition of some companies, meanwhile for me I just only care the cartoonish PS4 / PS5 games in physical release I can pick from my country.
AAA games are not my gaming agenda, don't even care the hubbub about acquisition over there.

@VoidofLight And @Octane pretty much summed up my feelings about the whole thing, I don't want them just buying out all the company's, but at the same time, there's not much room for choice, if they don't jump on it, who knows what microsoft will buy next, I mean, activision is a big one, they kinda lost there (Used to me sorta but not really) mascot, COD, even tho we are still going to get some games.

an I'm not saying those games aren't going to be on the console no more, but who knows, Crash 4 ended up getting skins only on the ps4 version, and for all we know, a lot of these games might start having that for the Xbox.

Sorry for the longish post, of me talking about something, I probably don't know what I'm talking about.

@Snatcher
I will start to worry when there are new Barbie games and new Skylanders games exclusively for XBOX Series X since Barbie and Skylanders games are used to be published by Activision.
