Sony just shared PSVR images.


So I'm guessing that out of Valve,Meta, and Sony, that somehow Valve will keep being the one with the best audio?

That's kind of crazy and I guess that it's like Anton said that people expect sub audio quality because they have not heard good sound quality in VR games, or In "headsets" for that matter.

This is one of those reasons why Linus wants Valve to make their own gaming headset seeing how great the audio and the mic is on the Valve index while every one else makes not so great products, even Sonys own Headsets from what I have heard are not that amazing, they are decent for $100 but that's about it. The Xbox Headset is a lot better and that's because it offers more connectivity options and what you can use it with. But there is still the issue of the audio itself.




Valve branded gaming headset in 2024????

Im on a trip to Finland and all I have to say is fuck winter, the cold and snow!

Also im so tempted by Elden Ring!
I just got back from a week visiting family in SoCal, just north of San Diego.

Average temp. there is a dry 72F/22C in spite of it still being winter months in that hemisphere. The pleasant, temperate weather they get year round is just stupid.

Bonus points in that my father lives just 2 miles in from the beach, so I do a morning run along the water every day I'm there followed by Starbucks and wave-watching. Saw dolphins 2 of those days swimming maybe 40 yards off shore and an actual gosh-darn whale on my last day. Cripes that whole region is magical.

I often jokingly tell my dad that if he lived in Mississippi I'd likely begrudgingly come visit once every 5+ years. But since he's in Carlsbad, CA, once a year is just fine, lol.

Oh, and yes. Elden hype is even spilling over onto my radar. And that's saying a lot as a resident AAA poo-poo'er.

Steam Next Fest is completely overwhelming. Their recommendations for me are right on, and I don't really even have time to check them out since I can't even make a dent in my backlog. Why do so many games look so GOOD? Anyone whining about the game industry should stop engaging with AAA games and look at this stuff.

What do the R6Siege yearly passes even add? The new one (7th!!) is like 30 and has a premium version on top like a full price whole new game, 60.

Oculus Store
Origin
Rockstar Social Club
Uplay
Epic Store

Oculus won't shut down as it is Facebooks platform for their VR stuff on PC.
Discord store is basically already shutdown.
Itch can exist.
GOG can exist.

The rest can go play in traffic.

Tiny Combat Arena seems neat, like what if YSFlight was a combat focused sim. Not much to it yet.

It seems to have trouble with the trigger on my flight stick though, input is inconsistent. I feared the worst but loaded up MechWarrior 4 and it works fine there.

Ha! Good riddance Beth Launcher:coffee-blob:
Sucks that you still need a Beth account for some games though.

MS should use Battle.net as the foundation for a decent future Game Pass/ Xbox app.

sounds like scary idea .... Battle.net as its now is like perfect for the small amount of titles there .... but i cant imagien them scaling it up for 100+ titles in its current state without rebuilding it alltogether

Scary? Maybe. But what's the point of having the vast majority of games on the shitty Xbox/GP app and a few Blizzard games on the way superior Battle.net. Nah. Sure they'll need to rebuild big parts of Battle.net or even build a new app from scratch. But with the Blizzard expertise, it can be a great place for Xbox (XGS, Bethesda, ABK) on PC (next to Steam).

Also get rid of all the stupid accounts please
Right now you need three accounts for the Xbox ecosystem: MS Account, Bethesda Account and Battle.net. Crazy. Just one account and one launcher for Xbox games please. Thank you :D

That price




I'm sorry aint paying 60 bucks for left over Vita games.
It's not a Vita game though, it's a new game released on Japan last October for PS4, PS5 and Switch, while western release is a simultaneous release for PC and consoles.

Though, yeah, the price is too high, especially with Caligula being $50/50€ (and since Caligula 2 didn't come to PC, I guess it didn't sell well?).

It's also on GMG, those that have GMG gold get a 20% discount:
I need some impressions. Even on Era there's nothing except that the demo was bad. (not that I would start it anytime soon, 35 hours into Cold Steel IV and JUST started Act.2...)
