hd8bit: After well over a year of waiting, we have finally been given a launch date. On October 13th, 2016, we will be playing with our new PSVR headsets! I am super excited, so you can imagine how I felt when I found out I was going to get to try it out before that! Sony announced at E3 that they would be traveling around the country (and world), giving fans a chance to try out this greatly anticipated hardware. After looking online, I found that the truck would not be coming to my city, but the local PlayStation Rep would be demoing the headset at a local Best Buy! Turns out, he will be at the Best Buy the last weekend in June and every Friday and Saturday in July! The first demo was starting at 1:00 on Friday, so naturally, I took a lunch break and was in line by 1:10. I was handed two laminated pieces of paper. A menu of sorts. The first explained that some people may get sick in VR and that if I was one of them I could raise my left hand at any time and they would remove the headset. The second listed five “experiences” to choose from. I knew immediately the one I wanted to try… After talking to some cool people in line-it was finally my turn!
PSLS writes: I have traveled across the country using the Razer Kishi Ultra in airports and hotels for both PlayStation Remote Play and mobile gaming in general, and I am thoroughly impressed.
A new patent recently published by Sony wants to gather biometric data of gamers to track whether one is being harassed using AI tools.
I hope this is one of those patents that never comes to fruition.
I already dislike the fact you can pay a significant amount for a online service buy associated games and content on said service and get banned from that service over potentially a misunderstanding the bans are already handed out for flimsy reasons
I'd rather see money invested in a ban that simply removes the offensive players ability to communicate with unknown players allow them to continue party chats with friends but not with Joe blow on cod.
Agreed. Blizzard recently banned a college Overwatch 2 player who's dependent for saying "shit." Pretty harsh.
Take my social security and bank account numbers too! Here’s a picture of my wife and our address.
At this rate I feel Sony will eventually sell a room to play games in it where they can monitor your every breath
I want them to censor erotic content by measuring my groin temperature so i dont get too distracted while playing black ops 2.
Terrible idea. Not only do I not consent to providing my biometric data, the potential for mishandling biometric data is almost a certainty. Positive stress and negative stress can produce similar changes in biometrics. Interpreting the precise emotion a person is feeling is not only invasive but could be easily misconstrued. I hope this never comes to fruition.
Supercell has released its new squad-building action game Squad Busters in Spain, Mexico, Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Canada, and Singapore. This game features characters from different Supercell titles, such as Clash of Clans, Brawl Stars, Hay Day, Clash Royale, and Boom Beach.
lol, "PS$!"
I'd love to try it but I doubt I'll feel like driving to any of the locations they have for me. Living in one of the biggest cities in the US I really thought there'd be more locations.
I wanna go to a kiosk and try it
I tried Battlezone last week. I want to go back and try some of the others
If you haven't tried VR yet, you will definitely love it. I just bought a Vive for my PC and it's awesome but the lack of AAA titles is a drawback. I also have a PS4 and will definitely be considering the PSVR next Spring after I hear some feedback from gamers.
