A good thing to remember for people that haven't used VR before, is that what you see on your screen when they're showing VR footage is nothing like what it actually looks like in VR. You miss the depth of the image which is what makes it completely immersive. You really have to try VR to understand it

Exactly. Even a screen that covers the full periphery of your vision does not explain how VR works. It's stereoscopic screens, so things have depth just like in real life. A flat display cannot replicate this effect.

Just tried one in the store last week for the first time. For some reason, the ability to detect depth was something that never was conveyed in all the youtube talk about VR I have seen on the platform for years. I mean I didn't expect it to mimic perfectly the depth we perceive of things in the real world. I was totally blown away.

I think they've laid some fantastic groundwork. The headset looks great and I've only heard positive things from people who've tried it, especially those OLED displays. It opens VR up to more people and that's great to see. I hope the platform itself takes off though because its good but pretty limited at the moment. As it stands I don't think what the platform offers is enough to justify getting a ps5 just for PSVR2 unless you think you'd get good use out of the PS5 by itself anyway or already have a PS5. I already have a VR capable pc and no PS5, so it's a harder sell in my case. Although admittedly I'm still linking a Quest 2 because I don't have the room for base stations and I'm holding out on upgrading until we see how the Quest 3 turns out compared to the Pico4 and Quest Pro. The quest 2 works, but the display is pretty bad by modern headset standards. Also, part of my reasoning of getting a quest 2 back when it came out was that I get access to both PCVR and portable games. I'm just not a big fan of the closed ecosystem personally. If it got PC compatibility though, suddenly it would become both a PSVR2 and an upgrade for my PCVR headset - I'd pick one up tomorrow and probably look to get a PS5 in the next year or so too.

Ik heb het toen gekocht en ik moet echt zeggen ik speel bijna niks 2d meer. Het is echt 1 usb-c kabel in je ps5 stoppen, je stelt alles 1 keer in en daarna onthoud de psvr2 je speelruimte. Dus 1 keer instellen, de keren daarna 1 kabel erin bril opzetten en spelen maar. De haptics en de trigger weerstand is perfect net zoals bij de dualsense controller. Er zitten ook haptics in de headset zelf dus als je bijvoorbeeld in gt7 tegen een auto rijd of tegen een muur dan trilt je Hoofd ook mee en is echt een leuke ervaring. De headset is super comfortabel en ook het gewicht word perfect verdeeld. Gt7: is echt geweldig je zit echt in de auto's en het gevoel van snelheid is veel beter. Ook zien alle interieurs er gelikt uit. En de apex is makkelijker te pakken omdat je alles veel beter ziet. Resident evil village: dit spel is niet normaal het is mega vet je loopt echt in het spel en op plekken waar je nooit zou willen komen. Red matter 2: spel met fantastische graphics. Goed verhaal en schitterende omgevingen echt een aanrader. Ik vind dit zelf een van de mooiste psvr2 graphics. Minigolf: leuk spel veel banen, goede besturing en het is net of je echt aan het midgetgolfen bent. Walking dead 1 en 2: Leuk spel goed verhaal. Mooie graphics. Besturing is perfect en je kunt er goed je ei in kwijt ( lekker zombies slachten ) ;) Kayak vr: mooi spel om aan mensen te laten zien hoe vr eruit ziet. Schitterende omgevingen en leuk om relaxt rond te varen en alleen maar kijken naar de omgevingen en de dieren en de vele vissen. No man sky: Het is zo mooi hoe ze de schaling hebben gemaakt in dit spel alles lijkt echt mega groot en na de laatste updat zijn de graphics ook perfect geworden. Mooie landschappen en er is genoeg te ontdekken. Horizon call of the Mountain: spel word verkocht bij de psvr2 terwijl ik zelf vind dat ze beter gt7 erbij hadden kunnen doen of red matter 2. Die graphics zijn veel mooier. Het zijn leuke omgevingen maar het beeld kan scherper en het spel is voor 80% alleen maar klimmen. Na een tijdje zit er geen bloed meer in je armen (lol) Ghostbusters: Super leuk spel, mooie graphics en leuk om het online samen met andere mensen te spelen. Star wars: mooi spel en er zit een leuk verhaal in. Mooie planeten en de besturing werkt perfect. Pavlov: echt een mooi spel je kunt alle wapens echt pakken en gebruiken. Ook kun je alle wapens proberen op de schietbaan. Online spelen is ook leuk alleen dit vergt wel enige oefening 🤪 Ik ben super blij dat ik de stap heb genomen. Ik speel het veel vaker dan gedacht. Vooral omdat het binnen 2 minuten is aangesloten. Mijn advies koop het, probeer het en als je het niets vind stuur je het terug. Als je nieuw bent in vr begin dan met korte sessies te spelen. Je brein moet er echt aan wennen. Zorg dat je je lekker blijft voelen en op tijd stopt. Geef niet op het kan even duren voordat je er gewend aan bent. Probeer eerst zittende spellen ( bijvoorbeeld in gt7 in de vr showroom rondkijken ) of stapvoets rond rijden en kijken hoe het gaat. Je kunt ook een ventilator van een afstandje op je richten dit helpt ook bij veel mensen, ik heb dit zelf nooit nodig gehad. Er komen heel veel nieuwe spellen bij en er komt ook steeds meer bij in vr. Heb je nog vragen stel ze gerust 😃

He qualifies it by mentioning the 30 million existing ps5s. I think that's the part that tends to be ignored.

The ps5 is a great console and the headset is pretty affordable if you already planned to own a ps5

A side note about the Quest 2 (And presumably future versions): The OOTB strap sucks. It gets the job done, but if you plan on spending any amount of time in the thing, I highly recommend getting the BOBOVR strap with battery slot. Much more adjustable and comfortable, and easier to position the headset itself to ensure clear visuals. While tethered VR is fantastic, I truly believe cordless is the way to go when possible, and with the Oculus software for a wireless PC tether for any Steam VR gaming, it is top notch. I notice very little compression issues in Steam VR with this method. So the BOBOVR strap with battery slot enables pretty darn good performance, and it's only another $50 or so ($80 if you want/need a second battery pack and charging stand for near limitless playtime). All that said, I'm really looking forward to what the tech the PSVR headset will bring to the VR market, and how the devices will evolve as a result.

Yeah, I was thinking the same. Or, in other words; Linus can't tell that only the bits he focuses on are rendered in more detail because whatever he's focuses on then becomes the part that's rendered in high detail. It's almost like a 'did the chicken or the egg come first?' kind of thing. To experience what I'm describing without this headset; focus on a point anywhere in the room you're in, and then, without moving your eyeballs and moving your visual focus, try to be aware of what you're seeing around the edges of your field of vision. Not surprisingly, it's all very blurry. So to me it sounds like Sony did an excellent job mimicking how human vision works.

It's not as good as they are making it seem, still not low enough latency (currently 200hz, needs to be around 500hz) to actually help with processing power. More of a "proof-of-concept" for future technologies that can bring eye tracking latency down low enough to make a difference for the hardware. The biggest hurdle is eye-to-photon latency and we won't come across a breakthrough regarding that tech for at least a few decades or more.

On the heavy Quest 2 link cable, if you haven't already you should really try messing around with how to get the most out of Air Link. You definitely want the router in the same room where you'll use VR, run ethernet from the PC to the router, and connect the Quest 2 over 5 ghz wifi. The latency is so low with it setup that way that I forgot I wasn't playing games natively on the Quest 2. What I haven't done yet is play around with all settings in the Oculus app to maximize the image quality, but with the games I was playing I didn't notice any sacrifices over being tethered.

A note regarding the compression on the Quest 2, you can use one of the programs included with an Oculus app install manually set the bitrate *much* higher than the Oculus app itself lets you, which can make the compression nearly unnoticeable. It really should just be an option in the app officially. Edit: for anyone wondering, you use Oculus Diagnostic Tool, it's installed along with the Oculus desktop app under /Oculus/Support/oculus-diagnostics/. I have a 3070 and use the link cable, so these settings get me great results: - Encode Dynamic Bitrate: Enabled - Dynamic Bitrate Max: 350 - Encode Bitrate (Mbps): 350 - Dynamic Bitrate Offset (Mbps): 100 Link Sharpening: Auto Mobile ASW: Auto Black levels aside, the end result looks pretty great.

I'm using a Pico 4 with Virtual Desktop's godlike settings. It does require a beefy PC, but I can't say I've noticed any compression during gameplay unless I'm trying really hard in specific parts. The screens are higher res than the Quest 2, they are pancake lenses and thus stuff outside the center doesn't blur, has a wider IPD range support, better weight distribution and more comfort, etc. Quest 2 is still better if you're using it a lot for standalone though. And it can get a bit brighter. And I guess Quest 2 has better finger tracking (not that it's useful outside of tech demos and maybe VR chat). Anything else, Pico 4 is pretty much objectively superior or at least equal.

The thing about the eye tracking is so important because the reality of things is that our eyes aren’t in focus on everything all the time. What PSVR is doing is doing a really good job on focusing on what matters. Our eyes will also move to look at something before our head turns towards that thing. Doing it this way allows the system to put more resources where they matter and allow the system to effectively punch above its weight class. I have a Quest 2 and use it wirelessly with my PC. I like it well enough, though I don’t really have much experience with VR headsets (I’ve also used a PSVR1 and a Rift S). I really do like no wire and since my PC is on ethernet i can connect my Quest 2 to my PC directly over Wifi. I think i will have a PSVR2 before the end of the year. I just wish there could have been some tool they could use to convert PSVR 1 titles to PSVR 2, though going from the single camera with light balls on sticks to this is probably impossible, so that’s why everything is being remade from scratch.

It really is damn good. It's kind of amazing. I think gran turismo is a proper killer app. Therea a ridiculous number of cars you can drive like something like 450 cars. All modelled with near photo realistic interiors. And it's fun to drive them. Omg so addictive. And you have a showroom you can use and get close to all the details and it's crazy how detailed the dashboard elements are. The screens are clear enough to read the dials on the car while driving. You don't need a HUD. I can't tell you.. it's just so good but I built a driving rig onto my sofa (I can't hear the wife when headset is on and earphones are in!) You would need a headset that costs idk $1500 or more like pimax crystal and a PC that costs idk $2000 or more to exceed the fidelity here. And everything is already built in on PSVR2 and more importantly the software is optimised for the hardware. So even then, you have a hard time keeping up with this tech. You could have eye tracking on PC... Nothing really supports it. You certainly won't benefit from the aggressive foveated rendering like on psvr2. You could have headset haptics (a bhaptics extra) but your game may not support it and it's a tack-on face gasket that will change your comfort (make it worse). You'll have to faf with Bluetooth, find the settings in game, run a paring program, make sure it's separately charged etcetera. The VR community is mostly blown away by psvr2. It's not quite the most comfortable headset. It's not quite perfect tracking... But damn! You have to spend a small fortune to beat it out. And games? Well idk 50 games in the first couple of months is going to be too much for most people to get through. I only had 95 out of the 600 games for the whole of the 6 years of psvr1. It's just the beginning. What a great start!

As a PC VR player, I'm still excited that PSVR2 is a thing. Hopefully it helps VR gaming get bigger and bring more games to both platforms, and I look forward to advances made in this tech making their way to PC headsets in the future. I started with an OG Vive and then upgraded to an Index. I think at this point, I'm gonna wait to upgrade again until I can have a fully wireless experience along with stronger visuals. If we can get headsets with an alternative to fresnel lenses it would be ideal as I think that's honestly the biggest issue with the Index. If you don't have the headset on just perfectly right, the edges of the lenses are really blurry which is rough for games like into the radius.

I love the implementation of foveated rendering with this headset. The reason Linus can't tell is because the rendering *always* tracks his pupil location. It's like trying to catch those floaters when you close your eyes real tight; the moment you move your focus they disappear. The rendering is always shifting to track where he's looking. From an external observer you can tell, but while wearing it it'd basically impossible to notice the shift, unless there were processing lag or you closed your eyes. I'm curious though how fast it redetects your pupil location after a blink, for example. Like if you close your eyes for a while and look in a different direction and then open, will you see a blurry screen until it redetects your iris location, and how long will that take?

What surprised Linus the most is the fact that it was *entirely* unnoticeable to him. Specifically two things, 1: The speed at which the textures and focus shifted was faster than he could see. And 2: The transition between low and high quality was so smooth, it wasn't detected at all in his peripheral vision.

The way your brain works helps a lot. It is very used to having to wait for refocusing and stabilization of the eye after movement. You're temporarily blind during eye movement, and don't notice that due to time and space being warped for you.

it does detect when you blink,, was mentioned in a review about that on rails horror shooter. like the game moved mannequins every time you blinked. also I'm not sure if humans can redirect their eyes while they're closed. like human vision is weird we do like saccadic movements or something, we rapidly move our eyes back and forth to form a complete image but we don't really notice this because of persistent of vision, like we don't get raw input from our eyes. the brain does a lot of processing to make it a stable consistent image while our eyes are racing around in their sockets... from wikipedia: When scanning immediate surroundings or reading, human eyes make saccadic movements and stop several times, moving very quickly between each stop. The speed of movement during each saccade cannot be controlled; the eyes move as fast as they are able.[4] One reason for the saccadic movement of the human eye is that the central part of the retina-known as the fovea-which provides the high-resolution portion of vision is very small in humans, only about 1-2 degrees of vision, but it plays a critical role in resolving objects.[5] By moving the eye so that small parts of a scene can be sensed with greater resolution, body resources can be used more efficiently.[how?] which makes this whole dynamic foveated rendering even more impressive. like you'd think our eyes would wander of into the low resolution part of the scene in the few miliseconds it takes them to dart around.

I have the PSVR2 and a VIVE Pro (with Gear VR lens mod), the latter of which I jerry rigged to pull the headset at the top to avoid alleviate the pressure under the eyes. The VIVE Pro wins in terms of blocking out light but the PSVR2 easily wins in terms of comfort, even with the jerry rig solution on my VIVE Pro. What I can't understand is why the PSVR2 went with the ridiculous rubber (or whatever that is) to try and block out light. You're always aware of it pressing against your face and although it's not a big deal it just feels cheap. My only other issue is PSVR2 is more finicky with tracking due to a lack of base stations. I occasionally lose tracking in games even with plenty of light in the surrounding area, which especially sucks with Call of the Mountain because the game pauses.

I was hooked from there. I bought psvr and upgraded my ps4 to the pro, I bought ps5 at launch and got my psvr2 on Feb 22nd! I loved psvr1 and the limitations were noticeable right out of the box, but I still fell head over heels in love with it. Psvr 2 is a game changer. Me personally I don’t notice ANY screen door effect. I lowered my displays brightness to about 3/4. It took me a little bit to find where to wear it on my head and find the sweet spot. But I absolutely love it! I can race better and faster in GT7. I find myself swaying with car movements and really really getting involved. I’m really lucky to be able to afford all of this stuff and get to experience this early consumer tech. I can’t wait to play moss 2. Moss was so adorable and I loved it. RIGS was my jam!! I rocked that game hard!! I boroughs almost every psvr game. Except the scary stuff! Haha I tried rush of blood but I couldn’t do it. I don’t get scared in reality but in vr I get horrified. I would like to be able to play it but I just can’t! 🤣 racing games on psvr weren’t good and I would rather play them normally. But again GT7 is so perfect and so realistic, I really feel like I’m there. Next I need a steering wheel and pedals!

If your argument is because Sony already has their own VR headset so why would they let other Manufacturers make their VR headsets work on their console. Then why does no manufacturer let their VR headset work on Xbox considering there is no Xbox VR in the near future? In short it costs more to make it work on consoles like how it will cost more to make it work on PC's.

Especially when you have kids and they want to play. So you can charge it overnight. Definitely going to buy something better in a few years, when these things get better and the price drops like with the Oculus 2 (a bargain for 359€). And that thing for 550 is awesome.

VR has been languishing a little, somewhat down to Facebook's drive towards monopolising it but I really hope that PSVR 2 helps drive demand up some more and incites more competition, including for PC. I do really enjoy my Index still, but VR tech has some a way since it was released and I would be happy to see if any of the long circulating rumours of a successor turn out to be true. There are certainly hardware things about the Index that could be fixed, in addition to spec bumps, and hopefully Valve would be able to bring something a bit more updated to the table alongside a subsidised price like the Steam Deck. Trouble again is Facebook and how they've drawn away a lot of the talent from publishing on PC VR, making a lot Quest exclusive. The positive response to the PSVR 2 is encouraging, and given the popularity of VR in Japan, it was a sensible idea. I would love to try it myself if I had a PS5.

Can play 4 hour sessions no problem. If its balanced, the weight is going on the top of your head, and not your face. You don't even need to tighten the headset.

I have concerns with the lack of onboard speakers, earbuds will only get you so far. I'm assuming they expect you to get the Pulse 3d headset, which is another considerable amount of money on top of the console purchase and vr peripheral. I'm really not sure it weighs out just for an OLED screen essentially when put up against pc VR or even just the Quest 2 as a standalone.

VR simulates reality, you don't wear headphones 24/7 when doing things unless you're involved in racing or listening to music. External sound is better.

@@Clay3613 agreed, I definitely prefer the way the Quest 2 handles audio with their external speakers.

One thing to remember about the quest 2 is that by default the bitrate is pathetically low by default. You'll get about 10 mbits when you can go up to 250 with tray tool or oculus debug. That eliminates 95% of compression artifacts. Funny enough if you use airlink you get a bitrate slider in your dashboard and it looks very good there as well.

It's funny how oculus software tests your USB cable at 2.8gbps and then sets the transfer speed so low.. I actually switched to Airlink as it currently run perfect smooth at 120hz but USB link is full of dropped frames ;/

@@Blix8 use the debug tool thats built into the oculus app on PC. you can change encode resolution and bitrate. it is miles better than airlink. unfortunately the default settings are just terrible for link, and the official 80$ link cable is over priced for what you get. watch Get hips video on how to do it, he explains it well. Type "GetHip Stop Using Your Link Cable Wrong... (Oculus Quest 2)" into search and its at the 5:52 mark

Quest 2 is nice for what it cost since its an all in one solution, but for latency and tracking its way behind the original Rift and of course newer wired PCVR headset with outside in tracking lol

Foveated rendering is a killer feature for VR. If this is the quality of a consumer VR headset today, can you imagine 5-10 years? Our children are going to see such insane technology become perfected. The latency will continue to drop. Eye tracking will be perfect. Resolution will skyrocket. Graphical improvements in GPUs alone will be massive, let alone those smaller technologies being polished. Great job Alex and Linus. Love your work, as usual. Edit: You can just imagine our cats and dogs enjoying it too if you don’t like kids! “You want to play Wildlife Wipeout Simulator, Fluffy?! And what about you Fido? Butt Sniffer 4 was reviewed well?”

Playing Doom 3 in VR over the last decade on every new VR device has been stunning. Started on a DK1 in 2013, just played it through on wireless PCVR on Quest Pro.

you could have at least credited Sony for pushing VR technology, especially eye tracking for consumer grade VR at an affordable price.
