It's still going to get strong software support if that's what you're worried about. There's a lot of ports just waiting to happen. PSVR1 sold very slowly and had so many technical hurdles but it still had a pretty good library in the end. I expect something very similar. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tears of the Cows 1,206 Posted January 31, 2023 Author Share Posted January 31, 2023 Sonys apparently denying this now, but it’s likely true. Time will tell once they release their forecast for next year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

VR isn’t proprietary technology from Sony like Betamax was . https://www.gamesindustry.biz/sony-we-have-not-cut-ps-vr-2-production-numbers Anyway, garbage debunked clickbait article. The guy who wrote the original article has a history of wrong Sony reports. He claimed some months ago Sony was slashing production of PS5 and that turned out to be wrong as well. Whether it was true or not I was still gonna get one. The software support for it is going to be solid if it’s anything like the PSVR1 and that’s all that matters to me. I want AAA VR games and Sony are in the best position to offer AAA VR games to their platform in a substantial quantity. Edited January 31, 2023 by FIREPOWER 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Which they likely did. Not only does PS5 have a smaller user base than PS4 at the time of PSVRs release, this is also a lot more expensive. They probably had higher expectations for the preorders. Doesn’t mean PSVR2 will suck, just means they may have been a little over zealous with their thoughts on how much pre-release demand they’d get.

Ike★ 2,906 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 I’ll still wait for a discount. $600 is a bit much for me. That or Astro Bot 2 is released. Whichever comes first. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. House 3,371 Posted January 31, 2023 Share Posted January 31, 2023 If I had more disposable income I'd buy a PS5 and a PSVR2 headsets straight up at launch just to support it. Speaking of, is there any PSVR2 launch titles coming in physical form? I'll buy them, even if I don't have it. For collecting/reselling/supporting purposes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The guy who your article is based on has a history of false reports. There's no point dying on the hill, the article has been debunked. They aren't slashing anything. The article was wrong and the guy's sources are ass. Sony never came out and told us sales forecasts or even production numbers for that matter. There was speculation and rumors that they would be producing 2 million PSVRs but nothing concrete from them. The article is bullshit and news sources that cited hm have issued updates correcting the mistake. The specific guy who wrote the article has a long history of fake news and debunked articles. 1 hour ago, Ike said: I’ll still wait for a discount. $600 is a bit much for me. That or Astro Bot 2 is released. Whichever comes first. It's actually $550 but I get what you mean. It's still a lot of money but it's worth it for the quality of VR that it is. It's going to be better than any VR headset when it launches and it will have a lot of support too. Edited January 31, 2023 by FIREPOWER Quote Link to post Share on other sites
