"PSVR is on par with a rift/vive with a GTX 970"-Actual VR Developer

Yeah, what resolution though?

Better non pentile OLED screens means they need less GPU power to display the same graphic fidelity, possible better optics and technology out of their camera research also adds to this. And they have found away to only needing 60FPS out of the hardware instead of 90FPS on the Rift and Vive. Last but not least it's a console, everything is optimized for efficiency. This adds up, and for many it could be enough compared with the first gen of PC VR HMDs.

Why are people skeptical of the PSVR?

If your app runs at 90Hz on a PC with a gtx970 then you should be very close to 60 on the ps4. And with the 120Hz reprojection applied it's glassy smooth

The display for the psvr is apparently really good.

* Gamers don't like to move
* It requires the use of 2 garbage peripherals that no one cares about
* Gaming is still a social experience that people enjoy more with people physically around them enjoying the same experience
* People want to play COD in full VR with the same graphics they would see on a normal TV, not some corny 3D version of these PS Move games that no one cares about. The gimmick will wear off quickly and the first gen of these peripherals will collect dust.

120hz interpolation.

Sony got another one

So you saying psvr is trash?

I'm not gonna argue against your opinion but I'm gonna note this. We'll see how this thing takes off. I think some people are just lumping VR as a gimmick such as the motion controls or kinect games which were gimmicks.

Oh @MeachTheMonster dapping that post like if M$ was making a VR solution you wouldn't be on it.

You know me breh. Note it. Save it. Throw the comment in my face if I'm wrong. I don't have a problem owning up to it if I'm wrong. I just don't believe in it at this point for the reasons I stated. If it turns out to be dope we all win.

I just don't believe it will succeed right now. I've never used it so I can't say. I'm just going on past experience with motion controls and other useless peripherals that don't deliver the experience they promise.

I don't know how fps will work if both the analog and your head turn the R joystick

People aren't lumping it with those gimmicks for no reason. VR uses those gimmicks to work. Couldn't sell the move or camera separately, but you think they are gonna be a big hit packaged together with some more complicated and expensive tech?

And has nothing to do with Sony and Microsoft VR has existed long before PSVR was a thing

Actually it does. I'm quite sure if M$ was doing VR you'd be singing a different tune.

They aren't expecting you to use a controller, they are selling this thing to work with that garbage PS Move controller and the PS camera.

2 year old technology is something to be hype about im confused
