Hands On With Driveclub VR For PlayStation VR - Do You Even Game Bro?

Josh goes hands on with Driveclub VR at EB Expo

[Death]

IMO one of the best examples of VR and a title that has me very interested in getting PSVR.

All reports have been great for this one. Imagine playing this with a wheel and seat rig - sheer awesome gaming!

EDIT: @below, I see what you did there! ;^)

[Death]

That is what I call VR. :)

@goldby: Wouldn't that mess up the headtracking?

Probably until some mad scientist named Quanz calibrates the shit out of it

Driving and flying sims would be great for VR.

Maybe a boxing game by EA would be good too.

that's about it really, and of course your first person horror games. I just feel this VR movement is being rushed and forced without understanding that it works really well for SOME games, but not all games. Seems like people just want VR to be the end all, but that's stupid.

[Barricade]

Gaming is only one of the applications VR can be used for. It'll be big for watching live concerts and events. It's not rushed, years and years of r&d went into this, and it'll only get better when the next gen of VR headsets will release.

I agree some genres will be better suited for VR than others. But I think it depends on the devs how they will integratie VR support. It's an entire new way of experiencing games.

Have you tried it yourself yet? Because I have, more than once, and it litterally blew my mind. This feels like the next step in gaming to me.

It early.

Nintendo rushed VR with their virtual boy (if you can call that vr) and that left a scare for many.

VR is still early, but we've reached a point where we can get it started and start building it's fpundations

'that's about it really'
Not at all. There r many more that would work well in VR

[Wallstreet37]

Rushed? Do you know how long VR has been around? I remember paying 5 dollars early 90s to get in a vr rig at the mall. On top of that Sony have had their hands in vr r@d for yearsssss! This is far from rushed. Sony is the first console company to bring real (true) vr to consoles and not that virtual boy bs that all professional agree was only vr in name. I commend Sony on setting the foundation and bcus of them Other consoles companies have decided to go head in on VR too.

Someone has to really do it first and Sony are showing why they are the hardware Kings! I can't wait.

I agree that it isn't for ALL games. But, there are many genres that can be altered to provide a great VR experience. I watched a demo of a mini-golf game on the Vive and I immediately wanted to play. There was a zombie FPS as well that looked fun. In the end, it's new tech. It's like the Atari of VR. It will get better and cheaper as it grows. The games are meant to be the Trojan Horse for other things like VR concerts, VR travel, VR sporting events, maybe even VR movie watching. Outside of gaming, it's already making some strides in medicine, engineering, and even sports. (several NCAA and NFL teams are using it as a means for the QB to make pre-snap reads and adjustments to defenses)
IMO, it's not being rushed. It's just that people have such high expectations of the tech so early on. Think of this as the first smartphone. It's not the fastest. Maybe not even the prettiest. But, it does things that couldn't be done before. It isn't meant to replace traditional gaming. It's meant to give you an alternate experience.

I've been waiting for a PS4 boxing game to be announced since before the PS4 launched. Good luck on that front.

DriveClub VR is the one title I shall be envious of (can't get a PSVR just yet).
