Topic	Thinking of making the jump into VR.
MrSmartGuy 06/03/19 6:12:56 PM #1:	I completely forgot Everybody's Golf VR was a thing that was on its way. I checked out some videos and it looks really fun. There's a new PSVR bundle that includes the camera, two Move controllers, that game and Blood & Truth, which I've read is phenomenal. But that's $350. I could've sworn it was cheaper than that, and it sorta is, if you get it without the accessories. But from what I can tell, isn't the camera 100% necessary? Why would anyone ever just sell the headset and have that be the default listing for amazon to offer those looking for it? So the idea of VR in general has me hooked now, after doing all this research on the alternatives, but there's just so many and I have no idea what I'm truly after here. HTC Vive is $500, which is a bit out of range of what I wanna spend. On the other hand, Oculus Go seems kinda cheap. Oculus Quest seems good for a standalone thing, but I do have a dedicated gaming laptop, so I figure I should probably go for a PC-VR headset. So the Oculus Rift S, then? It just came out and claims to be the most accessible VR equipment yet. I would much prefer the inside-out tracking this offers over the camera versions. I do realize none of these would play Everybody's Golf, which is the reason I've gone into this whole escapade, and while it's the game I would most want to play in VR, it's also far from a must-have. However, I also read that Sony recently changed it so you have to pay for the service to play downloaded videos on PSVR and that would be a major strike against it for me. I guess I'm leaning toward the Oculus Rift S, but the only thing I know about VR in general is what I've read about them the past 2 days. Any other input I can would be much appreciated. --- Xbox GT/PSN name/Nintendo ID: TatteredUniform http://www.scuffletown.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/05/tRBE1.gif <cite>MrSmartGuy posted [p:922746150] in Thinking o...
