Speaking of old school gaming, has anyone tried the Sega Megadrive Collection in VR yet?

Is's 20 euro for 50 games so...it's already worth buying. The VR is ok you just need to move yourself a little closer to the VR tv to get a decent picture.

Anyone else get an email with a code to access the pre release of Dark Eclipse? I've never heard of it before, VR MOBA it says.

Seen Skyrim VR in Smyths today for 25 new. Haven't seen it priced that low before

fixXxer · 01-10-2018 10:49am

Has anyone seen a reasonable price for a replacement HDMI extension cable? Started getting static and red lines on my PSVR last night. When I plugged it directly into the box it was fine, so it seems to be the cable that's the issue.

Wow - just looked at some reviews - time to get back to my PSVR methinks.....

mrcheez · 01-10-2018 11:29pm

I never spend more than €20 on a game except for extreme exceptions. This will be one of them.

Lads, have a look at the Tony Hawk challenge on Next VR. It's amazing. There's a live show coming on November 25th too.

Unfortunately the Firewall DLC does not mention new maps. It says new "items" which is pretty vague.

Still though PSVR is on fire lately.

coolisin · 10-10-2018 8:13am

yeah this Firewall DLC is cosmetics only
Maps/changes at a later date, FOC

I just cant figure out how to incorporate vr into my gaming habit. Its all set up but the only time it gets dusted off is when i want to show someone.
Its about 3 foot too short to sit on the couch with and dragging the couch forward and messing around with the camera is just a pain in the arse.
Sounds like im a right lazy btard but flopping down on the couch with controller in hand is far more convenient.
Any thoughts?

I certainly use my Go a lot more than my PSVR / Rift purely based on these reasons.

Go is always-on, so I'm in VR in about 5 seconds after the thought enters my head to put the headset on. Great for quick 10-30 min bouts before nodding off at night.

I certainly see Oculus Quest doing very well purely because of this.

Im really lucky that it all fits into my room perfect, so I can flop onto the couch.
Could you adjust your setup in anyway to make it closer to the couch for you?

or get a dedicated gaming chair that you can put in place when you want to play, this is what I do when I'm settling in for a session.

weiland79 · 10-10-2018 7:32pm

Thats actually one of the questions i wanted to ask . Would most of you play games comfortably sitting down?
The only one ive tried sitting down was resident evil but i had to bring a kitchen chair for that.

Would i be right in saying that, that shooter from last month, cant think of the name would be better played standing up.
( im conscious of coming across like a right moany **** here)

But i does be tired at the end of the day

Yeah a lot of games are better played standing up like the fps shooters and Superhot/Job Simulator.

But plenty can be played sitting too. Skyrim is one I played sitting as I don't think I could last 5 hours standing
