does it support wheels Amiga?
Is it online ?
I don't think it supports wheels delboy from my brief look, although it does work well with the joypad, it is definitely online though, so racing with friends would be a blast.
I must admit Delboy I did wonder what you would make of it, it is a pick up and play arcade racer that is a far cry from the Gran Turismo's of this world.
But still a lot of fun to be had.
haha i aint a racing snob chief !! I enjoy more laid back racers too I just focus on sims, I just dont like it when games claim to be sim when they are more arcade.
I loved Wipeout back in the day, the wheel gives you an edge though and i am pretty damn competitive.
I still dont have VR but currently looking at phones (contract up at the end of the month) that are giving them away with the phone.
Well if you do get PSVR Delboy, of the VR racing games out there, this is probably top of the pile, you might just have to join the mere mortals and use the controller.
I'm sure it won't be long before you throw it across the room, there are some pretty seasoned Wipeout pro's out there that I will never compete with.
Still waiting for PSVR to drop in price but know I'll be waiting a while
I'd need the PSVR, the camera/sensor thing, the move controllers etc the full works.
Does the headset have headphones built in, or do you use the TV sound still?
PSVR comes with earbuds, you can also use dedicated headphones if you have some.
Sound in VR is a revelation, you hear the sound from where it is being generated, so behind you, it's behind you, side of you it's from the side etc, it was probably what I found most scary in Resident Evil 7, there was literally a time I could here stuff going on behind me, but there was no way I was turning round to look
And I don't scare easy.
Just been looking at the bundle on Game/Tesco/Argos etc.
£259 at the moment for the version 2 headset (with built in earbuds), the PS4 camera, and the VR Worlds game.
Chuck in £68 for the move controllers and it's not as much as I thought tbh
Obviously then need some VR games too.
Many free ones on the PS store?
There are a lot of free VR experiences to enjoy, but a word of caution, don't expect 1080p clarity.
Although PSVR is 1080p it is sitting in front of your eyes and a lot of processing power is used, so games won't be as sharp as you nice new Samsung TV.
But if you accept it's limitations, it is a whole new way of playing, Resident Evil would not have bothered me on TV, in VR it got even me a little stressed.
I would say choose your games carefully, it is easy to get carried away and buy up anything with VR in the name, but the real quality ones shine through, and Wipeout is quality.
There have been many VR games that wouldn't interest me, but yeah Res Evil certainly does.
Have you used it much for non-VR games, or movies etc in the Cinema mode? What exactly is this?
Of course there is nothing stopping you from looking in the PS store now at the VR games.
It is a matter of taste, I loved the Batman game, short but very sweet, Headmaster a simple game but great fun, then Resi 7 if you are brave enough and of course Wipeout.
The list of VR games goes on, it all depends on what you enjoy.
I must admit my gaming days seem to be coming to an end, so my PS4 doesn't see much action these days.
PSVR does allow you to watch Blu-ray movies on it and in 3D too, which can be kinda cool.
I have watched a lot of VR on Youtube, there are all sorts of things on there, rollercoasters to jet fighters, you name it there is all sorts.
I'm excited by what VR brings to the table and I will be looking forward to what the future brings.
Didn't even think of using YouTube on the PS4 to watch VR stuff with it on
Oh in cinema mode it is basically a big screen, you can change the size, but basically think sitting at the cinema.
Thinking about it there was a cinema VR experience on the Gear VR I played around with which was cool, basically you sat in a virtual cinema, I was standing in the kitchen an tried to lean on the seat in front

I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of graphics to be honest. Played Resi at my mates and the mech game and was far better than I was expecting. I think I was worried they would be so poor.... I think its more with things like draw distance that VR struggles most with
Dont get me wrong, the graphics are surprisingly good, the resolution so close to your face means things are not as sharp as your TV.
But by no means bad
While on the subject of PSVR, anyone considering VR be aware of motion sickness.
Wipeout offers a lot of comfort features, but if you start to feel nauseous, my advice stop playing and come back to it later.
If you try to push through it, you will just feel worse and worse, little bites till you find your VR legs would be my advice.
The are many games where motion sickness is not an issue (Batman for example) but Wipeout could definitely be an issue for some, at least till you get your VR legs.
Hi, can you recommend the PS4 VR set? Was contemplating if I should buy one, but the limited available VR games and the question of VR's overall quality filled me with doubt.
I love VR, there are some amazing and unique experiences to be found, but it is far from perfect, if you can accept it's limitations I would say go for it.
The graphics are a little more limited, the resolution not as sharp, the controls a little clunky, but there is an immersion you can only get in VR.
Resi 7 would not have bothered me in the slightest playing on TV, VR made it a very different experience, same for Wipeout, I can't imagine any Wipeout fan wanting to play it any other way.
I have had some great experiences, But VR still has a lot of growing up to do, there will come a time where it truly blurs reality, and I can't wait.
Good information AmigaWolf. If it's discounted I'll look into one.
