Welcome to the Family! New to the club!

I’ve been playing video games since 1988, and this feels unbelievably brilliant! GT7 and Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy’s Edge are currently ongoing, and I have to say that I’m really enjoying playing again in a very refreshing way.

PSVR2 and VR in general absolutely revitalized my love of gaming.

u/LazyPancake 1d ago

I love gaming, and still regularly play all kinds of stuff.

We got a VR2 for Christmas and I am BLOWN AWAY. I got my first Gameboy when I was 11, and I thought that was cool. 36 year old me is having the same level of insane excitement as 11 year old me did 😂

Felt the same when I got mine.

Back to being a kid and just wanting to get home from school to play ps3 with my mates.

Except now I can’t wait to get home from work and play VR.

And no one can tell me off if I stay up late gaming on a work night!

What are some of your favorite games? I got the PS VR two for $370 on Black Friday. I’m thinking about taking it back to the store I have until December 1. I don’t get motion sickness, but it really hurts my head. It’s either too tight or it’s too loose. I don’t like the material That is supposed to support. Other than that, what are some of your favorite games? The only thing I’ve played on they are so far as Gran Turismo seven and that is amazing. I got a G923 in the closet that I haven’t even set up yet. I need to buy a desk or a chair for it.

Agree with others, globular cluster is great. Highly recommend.

Games i have a huge list, and it depends on what you're interested in.

Here's the community tier list: https://www.reddit.com/r/PSVR/s/KS4LalysSk

Personally I'm just starting to love Alien Rogue Incursion. I also highly recommend resident Evil 4 and 8 in VR. In the same genre of RE is Propagation Paradise Hotel. It's a really quality homage to Resident Evil 1. VR does horror exceptionally, like Madison.

Others like Synapse, Metro, Into the Radius, Behemoth, Red Matter collection, Subside, FnAf, Phasmophobia, Arizona Sunshine, 7th Guest, the Room, Metal Hellsinger, No Man's Sky, Breachers, Border Bots, Ghost signal, before your eyes, VR Skater.

I could go on

While your still trying to decide if keeping, try using a beanie to help the comfort and fit. If you keep vr look into globular cluster mod it's highly recommended from people who have issues with comfort and fit.

Definitely get your wheel out and temporarily set up on something before return window is over. If that dosnt convince you to keep get ps plus premium teir for 1 month and check out the games that on that free list there is atleast 10 games worth keeping the headset for there.

I’m not gonna be able to do the beanie thing because my head already sweats in there I’m gonna look into the global cluster thing. I’ve heard that before. Also, I would pull my wheel out but I’ve moved apartments and I don’t have a table to set it up too, and I’m scared to count my money after the holidays so I don’t know if I’m getting a place seat yet which is another reason why I’m thinking about returning itand I got PlayStation extra. I’ll look at the PlayStation premium. Is there anyway you know some of the games that it comes with because lately, my concentration has been so shocked that looking through that game catalog for certain games feels like the death of me I gotta fix my mental health.

u/Mud_g1 1d ago

In premium there is saints and sinners 1&2, synapse, synth riders, walkabout mini golf, starwars galaxies edge, puzzling places, kayak vr. All of them are good games and highly recommended. And the other 6 or so are still half decent games aswell.

Way to get ahead of the question!

u/AllAboutDolph 1d ago

If you’re into multiplayer games and don’t have a group with VR, highly recommend the Without Parole community. Great people who just love VR games, favoring the PS VR / PS VR2 platforms.

u/GregoryPokemon 2d ago

Welcome. I'd recommend a globular cluster mod

u/CraigR-81 1d ago

A what?

2

u/GregoryPokemon 1d ago

A mod to improve comfort of the device. It adds a head strap and cushions the front and back of your head: globular cluster for psvr2

u/SirVeritaz 1d ago

Agreed! Made wearing glasses more comfortable for me.

u/iceman5820 1d ago

u/Abject-Corgi1515 1d ago

Can someone please help....set up the psVR2 the way it instructed us to, set up the playroom/space, done the eye teacking then went to play a game, didn't work, done the same at a friend's, didn't work, took it back and got it replaced, got someone else to set it up, same deal Message only pops up when we try to play a game

2

u/Damosgreat123 Game backlogs'R'me 1d ago

Yes, what is this mysterious message you are keeping from us?

1

u/Nietzsches_dream 1d ago

What’s the message? If you have PSVR2 you can only play games for PSVR2, not PSVR

u/PuzzlingPlacesDEV 1d ago

We might have a suggestion if you're into some chill vibes.. 👀

Tons of brilliant stuff there! Thanks!

u/jsmitt716 1d ago

So much fun isn't it?? The thing I love most is watching my wife become obsessed with a video game for the first time ever. I woke up at like 3 am last night and she was awake, she says I wanna hop on the VR while I have a chance since the kids are asleep. We played together untill 6:30. I get such a kick out of watching her hunt mechanical dinosaurs and climb around

My fucking X button won’t work

u/t3stdummi 1d ago

Spray a little electronics contact cleaner under it and press a few times. Should fix it.

u/riencore 1d ago

That sucks. The PS button on my right controller has no travel at all. Works for now, but worried it’s going to fail before anything else and I will no longer be able to power it on.

This YouTube short covers a potential fix.

u/KingDingALing7804 1d ago

Thanks all - I’ve tried all the fixes I could find in Reddit (which there are a ton since this seems to be a widespread issue) but will try there too!

u/amusedt 1d ago

Not widespread issue, but people who have it, are often going to post here looking for answers

u/KingDingALing7804 1d ago

Seems pretty widespread

u/amusedt 1d ago

It isn't. Around 2M headsets sold. The problem isn't even common enough to get talked about in gaming journalism sites nor by psvr2 Youtubers. People with a problem will of course come here to start a post. And everyone with no problem will never come here to start a post "my controllers are fine". It will never occur to them that problems even exist
