@carlos82 - sounds very similar to me, except I have 4 boys!
I hope Sony's PC strategy continues to expand/improve and we get confirmation soon regarding PSVR2 and how that will work with PC. I've been waiting for something with OLED panels to upgrade to from my ageing Samsung Odyssey+.
If they confirmed PC compatibility or Trinus managed a good implementation, for example - it would be a day one purchase for me. PC VR has been stagnant for too long and no real worthwhile upgrade path for me from my Odyssey+.
Bare facts - this is a great HMD set, hassle free (single USB-C connection), great looking controllers and a great price for the tech that you're getting. Might be too much money for some to consider paying but for people like me that love VR, I think it is a good proposition.
Caveat for me - I had PSVR and used it quite a lot, but the amount of time I used it dwindled after I got VR for PC. I'm an avid sim-racer and wouldn't want to go back to flat-screen for that at any cost.
Uncharted hasn't popped despite playing. I only seem to have the legacy edition - should work I assume? First two games were fine - popped immediately. I didn't realise about streaming, so left those downloading from when I last switched the PS5 on...
@Jaz007 - on paper, it should be better than most, maybe with the exception of high-end Pimax or Varjo. Any, I will reserve judgement. I'm still clinging onto the hope that it will be supported on PC by Sony, so it can replace my ageing Samsung Odyssey+. But I know chances are slim!
@Bismarck - I use VR more than flat screen. Mainly due to the fact that I enjoy realistic driving and flight simulators. Admittedly these are niche markets, within niche markets but there are many that love VR and could not go back to a predominantly flat screen experience. I and many other do also enjoy other more mainstream arcade/adventure type VR games but I agree there is still a long way to go before seeing mass adoption - price, ease of access, evolving technology, etc...
@themightyant - I know it is optimistic but there could be positives. Even if they do decide to make it compatible, I guess it's likely that won't be at the start of the products life-cycle. I'm sure the headset would be very popular with PC owners. Sony have their 'Playstation PC' brand, which the headset could help promote, particularly for later PC ports. Also, it may increase (in a small way) the no. of PS5's purchased - buy the headset for PC, then buy PS5 to take advantage of exclusives and the 'full' PSVR2 experience.
Even if it doesn't happen - at least it should push the other companies to innovate a bit more and provide new headsets with at least equal specifications at a reasonable price. I'm still sat here with my Samsung Odyssey+ and not seeing much to tempt me away from it...
I'm contemplating getting some store credit @ 15% off and then extending my PS Now by 12 months.
Good idea? I'm not entirely convinced! Obviously a personal choice, but I guess I add 'Premium' for less than half price for a one year extension, until Nov 2023, albeit potentially an overlap with my existing PS+ subscription that runs until April 2023.
All too confusing but, depending on what games get added, I think the refreshed service sounds pretty good...
Sony really need to make it clearer what the upgrade paths/costs will be.
Seem good to me and Looks like I'm OK for Premium until end of October this year when my PS Now subscription runs out.
I have PS+ until April 2023 already. Assuming it might make sense to try and get a 'top up card' for my PS Now for about £40 to extend my current membership... only an existing PS Now subscription required to be automatically eligible for Premium for the same duration?!
Unfortunate that the game was down for so long, but I think there will be at least some form of 'compensation'.
I had an issue with GT Sport when playing on two different PS4s. The online system of progress saving messed up and I lost quite a lot of levels, a bunch of credits and some cars. They ended up giving me about 20million credits, a load of 'car passes' that I could use to purchase anything and a proper apology / recognition of the problem with the save game system.
Based on my experience above and what Kazunori has responded with, I'm happy to keep enjoying the game (loving it so far) and see what they have planned for special events / updates / etc.
@Anke - LOL there is an extremely passionate community around this game. One guy by the name of Palladean has a series of in-depth YT videos that look at various technical aspects of the game, including track lengths and comparisons to real world circuits. He looked into how long it would take to achieve 50,000km if driving continuously and worked this out to be around 18 days and 6hrs!!!
@thefourfoldroot - no rubber-banding. Slip-stream effect got introduced recently but obviously you need to be in the right place to benefit from that. The AI needs some improvement, but the devs roadmap has a further update due this quarter, plus improved contact physics being beta tested tonight before general release. You really do need to think about fuel and tyre management to get the optimum strategy - plus oval racing which is a whole discipline in itself!
@Anke - If you fall in love like me and many others, 500+hrs is not a problem! I have nearing 1000hrs in the PC (Steam) version and I am nowhere near the guys with the most hours!
By the way - I don't yet have the 50000km trophy - that is for the truly dedicated and I kind of like it like that...
@Olmaz - Yes, local 4-player split-screen. You can all join an online lobby race together or just race locally. Also worth checking out the devs roadmap. Custom/Private lobbies coming soon, ranked matchmaking and more. On PC there is a beta tonight (for improved physics where cars contact each other) which, if successful, will be rolled out to all platforms. The game comes from a very passionate group of just 6 people I believe who are very active on the Discord
A great game I can thoroughly recommend! Reviewed well on PC (Steam) and Xbox and is a lot of fun for both casual and more competitive drivers. A surprising amount of strategy is involved for a top down racer, with fuel, tyre wear and pitstops, etc. It might not be everyone's 'cup of tea' but for a nostalgic 44yr old like me, it's an amazing game - far too many hours already spent racing little toy cars around miniature race tracks!!! The Devs also have a decent roadmap for future updates including custom lobbies, etc..
@eagletrippin - Great to hear they did respond to the online chat thing. $93 for 'Strengthening Kit' which they say is mainly shipping costs. Not terrible but still more than I would have expected! Guess I have to decide if I wait and go 'all in' on 8020 rig plus DD or do this and either wait or get the DD wheel at the same time and see how it goes...
I am likely moving house soon, so might just wait it out and get a new rig in time for setting up in the new house...
@eagletrippin That's great to hear Eagle. Thanks for taking the time to let me know. I need to chase NLR as I haven't had a response to my web note. Will use your suggestion of Facebook was it?
@eagletrippin Thanks and good luck to you ;--) I sent them a webnote - being as polite and complimentary as possible. I've learned over the years that it generally helps to be positive with these things 😂
@eagletrippin Just discovered that new F-GTs now come with additional strengthening bars for the wheel deck and modification to pedal plate. So, hopefully all will be good for you. I'm trying to see if I can get a kit with the parts separately for my old F-GT.
@Dan_ozzzy189 - It has paddles on the wheel. It doesn't have an H-Shifter as part of the package I'm not aware of any cars with 8 manual gears. I have the Fanatec H-Shifter for PC and only use it on older, manual cars - so that it is authentic. The separate Fanatec H-Shifter has 7 gears + reverse, which I've only used fully in the past when I've played Euro Truck Simulator.
@glassmusic - I thought I had read that the GT DD is compatible with everything in their 'eco-system' and therefore the ClubSport Shifter. Guess it's down to how big the user base would be and whether games would support it too... Another £250 or so too!
@Dr-M - best sim title available on PS is probably Assetto Corsa Competizione. I race or have tried just about all the racing simulators on PC. Unfortunately ACC doesn't have very good VR implementation, so I don't race it much.
@eagletrippin - I think you might be OK with F-GT and the CSL DD. Are you going 5nm or 8nm? My CSL Elite PS4 has 'up to 6nm' torque and is fine with the F-GT. My concern over flex is more if I end up getting a Simucube Pro with 25nm (not that I would run it anywhere near that!). The most benefit you get with a DD wheel is the fine detail, rather than brute force. I've also seen some people have made minor mods to their F-GT to strengthen them for use with higher torque DD wheel bases. There's a video somewhere showing the stock F-GT and an OSW without any noticeable flex - but don't think it was particularly independent, maybe even from NLR themselves...
I have been sim-racing on PC for nearly 20yrs and have had a few different wheels. I haven't yet gone Direct Drive but, based on the type of wheel you get here + pedals, this is a good price for the tech that you're getting (believe it or not!). It's clearly not for everyone and I don't personally think it's worth it for a game like GT7 (I love the GT series by the way) - but the extra detail afforded by a DD wheel is likely better served by one of the more 'hardcore' PC simulators. I'm currently saving to upgrade from my CSL Elite PS4 wheel to a Simucube wheel (or maybe Fanatec DD1/2) but will need a stronger rig than my Next Level Racing F-GT to avoid movement/flex.
I got YCCC for my eldest son 2-3 yrs ago when it was on sale - he's now 13. He tried it but quickly got more interested in more serious city building things and Kerbal on PC! Got myself a 2TB expansion drive for my PS5 and was looking through my back catalogue and decided to download it again to see if my 9yr old would like it and he does - would go as far as to say he love's it. So money not wasted! This new game looks 'right up his street' too Look forward to the mini-review...
Got this on release and slowly working my way through with a bit of playtime in the evenings every so often. Really enjoying it and look forward to each 'session'. I've heard the final boss fight is quite tricky/lengthy (10-15mins?), with multiple phases. However, if you die it re-sets to the 1st phase. Not sure if the difficulty is exaggerated by others but sounds like it could do with a 'fix'. Anyone else have experience / able to comment (without spoilers!)?
@Grimwood - Exactly. Game mode, frame creation, blah blah blah - always turn this stuff off. Doesn't take much effort to tweak the 'basic' settings to make the most of your TV. I also like tweaking
It's still a 6/10. A respectable score. Metacritic average closer to 70? This sort of game appeals to me and still interested to give it a go. Asking price is low but will wait a while to see if it gets updated/improved and ultimately buy it, probably just before it goes on PS+!
@Integrity - watching the Spoony Pizza's live stream on You Tube earlier, doesn't look like there's any hope for gameplay either...
Guess there are a couple of options for me - make the switch to FIFA (change controls to mimic PES) or persist with PES 2021 and PES Universe latest Option Files (up to v9 currently)...
There was apparently a build made available for content creators that seemed to be a later version than the one released to the public. Apparently graphics and gameplay were better - so there is some hope I guess, maybe it will get sorted in time for Master League release, which is what I play mainly.
Pre-ordered for PS5, working my way through it in the evenings and has me looking forward to going back and progressing a bit further each time (I have 4 kids, so gaming time is limited!).
I can easily recommend it to anyone that likes this type of game - looks gorgeous too, which makes searching for collectibles an enjoyable experience

Re: Poll: Years Later, How Do You Feel About PlayStation's PC Strategy?

Re: Poll: Will You Pay the PSVR2 Launch Price?
If they confirmed PC compatibility or Trinus managed a good implementation, for example - it would be a day one purchase for me. PC VR has been stagnant for too long and no real worthwhile upgrade path for me from my Odyssey+.
Bare facts - this is a great HMD set, hassle free (single USB-C connection), great looking controllers and a great price for the tech that you're getting. Might be too much money for some to consider paying but for people like me that love VR, I think it is a good proposition.
Caveat for me - I had PSVR and used it quite a lot, but the amount of time I used it dwindled after I got VR for PC. I'm an avid sim-racer and wouldn't want to go back to flat-screen for that at any cost.
