El Tigre Chino Posted January 5, 2022 Report Share Posted January 5, 2022 Meta still feels like a smoke to take attention away from all the controversy around Facebook. Apart from Decentraland business where brands and people are jumping onto the hype, I don't see a mass adoption anytime soon for these Metaverses especially ones in VR. Maybe I've reached that boomer stage where I can't envision a shift of this magnitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then quest 2 came out is blowing everything out of the water bcoz of its wireless functionality and in built hw. Both vr 2 and quest 2 are targeting different markets but quest 2 def has the edge. Only question is whether Facebook/meta are in for the long haul or will they drop it if they don't see much growth. Facebook is creating Metaverse & going in big with the VR. They want to capitalise on the ongoing crypto boom & want ppl to invest all their crypto earnings as much as they can in buying NFT’s in Meta. It’s a huge prospect but then again it only grew because of the pandemic. If ppl decide to take their investments in real world now that it’s ending, only then it might flop.

My guess is Q2 2023 Ps5 didn't have much going either. I guess they will just release it because it will still sell because of impulse buy and demand/supply. There are already enough VR games to take advantage of the better hardware. Having hardware already sold will be a good strategy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not doing a comparison. There weren't enough games for the launch of a brand new system, be it Ps5/Ps4/XSX but they still sold out. The same thing will happen with VR2 and that's why it makes sense to release it before games are in the market so that people will just flock to any game which is released. Not every Ps5 owner will get it, the people who do will already have a set of games they want to play on new hardware, be it Beat Saber. Personally I will buy it just for better Beat Saber.

The old games will work on the psvr2? Or else we should be looking at the good old 10$ upgrades . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why it would be any different for PSVR to PSVR2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discs wouldn't eject unless you press and hold the eject button for long. Once the disc was out you couldn't enter discs again unless you changed orientation or give it a tap outside the drive. Only reason I delayed the replacement was because I was playing ac Valhalla for like a month and didn't know replacement would be so quick.

Just try to buy a extended warranty if possible. The sony service centre guy told me that they honor it and tata aig is the best. Sadly I completely forgot about it today or else would've got it.

No idea if you can get it directly from tata aig website or someplace else. Try calling the service centre near your place or the one I visited (02225221626). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
