Why do we call demos "betas" now? They're not fecking betas if they're finished fecking products that are being demoed, even if it's only to a few people. It really makes my anti-marketing department bones shake with uncontrollable rage.

PlayStation VR is the only way I'd get on the VR train. Now i own a decent but not top of the line PC (i5 4590 + GTX970) but the Vive and Rift are both too expensive for me. I suspect this will be the case for most people as well.
Dr.Richard Marks had a talk about PSVR at the Vision AR/VR Summit last week. The video has now been released online:
Some details as I watch:
- *<18ms super low latency thanks to fixed hardware.
- 100degree FOV.
- Console effectively ~60% more powerful than same-spec PC (as reported by middleware providers, not Sony).

And with the 120Hz reprojection applied it's glassy smooth."
- Reprojection was previously on as an option but now Sony has made it permanently on as it has no down-sides (contra keeping it off).
- The breakout box doesn't touch the signal between the PS4 and the PSVR, just takes it post and warps it for TV. The only thing it feeds to the PSVR is the 3D audio which it *does* process. No PS4 GPU/CPU cycles spent on Audio.
- Reconfirms that the only new hardware is the PSVR hmd itself, the rest is what's already in the market (PS4 camera, PS Move, DS4).
Here's a video of the 'Disc Battle' demo that had an hardware error during PSX keynote (here's how it is when working):
Gonna flop worse than 3d
nope, I think the tech will be here to stay and keep getting better and betterGonna flop worse than 3d
For the future of VR the price point Sony set is going to be huge. I read HTC's headset is around £700...I mean that's already DoA they should just scrap it.
It's not DOA for those who want the best available - HTC are targeting a very small segment of the gaming population. The Rift is aiming at a larger segment, while the PSVR will have the broadest appeal / attractiveness.For the future of VR the price point Sony set is going to be huge.

But even so, as was said above, they are not looking at mass market. Sony has a huge userbase with the PS4, but they are certainly not expecting everyone to rush our and buy the PSVR.
Xbox has decent ones this month aswell iirc, batters the PS offerings all over. Rocket league was easily the best PS free game and that was ages ago nowThe PS+ games get worse every month.

Yeah they have been disappointing since then. Mind you the PS Store had some amazing deals a couple of weeks ago. Plants v Zombies was down to £6.39 NHL 2016 was £12 and Rory McIlroy PGA golf was £12 and Madden 2016 was £9, only as Valentines Day specials though, they went back up a day or so later.
Look at Parmo trying to justify the Xbox because he still hasn't found his PS4.
I found it but been on 2-10 this week so by time I get home all GTA spaces are taken as you're all mission dickhead this week thanks to captain gta
How do you lose a PS4 (or any console)?

Yes, Seagate and yes I get the bleeping now and then.Right guys, I've run out of space on my PS4. Has anyone upgraded their Hard Drive? If so, did you use the Seagate/Samsung 2TB one? If so, do you get that beeping noise?

Hmm. I guess I will try it and see. Some people on HUKD say if you change the settings to give power to the USB ports all the time, the beeping might go away.I upgraded mine last summer (I think, could have been earlier). Nothing to worry about.
Did you take yours from an external hard drive or just buy the hard drive by itself?I upgraded mine last summer (I think, could have been earlier). Nothing to worry about.
