hd8bit: After well over a year of waiting, we have finally been given a launch date. On October 13th, 2016, we will be playing with our new PSVR headsets! I am super excited, so you can imagine how I felt when I found out I was going to get to try it out before that! Sony announced at E3 that they would be traveling around the country (and world), giving fans a chance to try out this greatly anticipated hardware. After looking online, I found that the truck would not be coming to my city, but the local PlayStation Rep would be demoing the headset at a local Best Buy! Turns out, he will be at the Best Buy the last weekend in June and every Friday and Saturday in July! The first demo was starting at 1:00 on Friday, so naturally, I took a lunch break and was in line by 1:10. I was handed two laminated pieces of paper. A menu of sorts. The first explained that some people may get sick in VR and that if I was one of them I could raise my left hand at any time and they would remove the headset. The second listed five “experiences” to choose from. I knew immediately the one I wanted to try… After talking to some cool people in line-it was finally my turn!
This looks fun and affordable for fans of Retro Cabinet games.
Introducing Evercade Alpha, the first Evercade-compatible arcade machine. This bartop-sized arcade gives you everything you want in a home arcade machine with one big feature - full compatibility with the Evercade cartridge ecosystem.
I like the Mega Man one more as it has a better variety of games. Strider, Carrier Airwing, Final fight... The other is all SF. Plus i like that i can pop in any of my evercade carts to play as well.
During Sony’s recent business segment meeting and investor presentation regarding its game and network services, the PlayStation company revealed that PlayStation 5 is the company’s “most profitable generation to-date.”
It’s the top slide of the presentation, showing that in its first four years, the PS5 generation has already hit $106 billion in sales, having almost caught up to the PS4’s total $107 billion generated.
Operating income for the PS5 generation has also already surpassed that of the PS4, having now reached $10 billion.
I wouldn't doubt it. They released a high quality system. A lot of high quality games from themselves and their support of 3rd party developers and indies. They released many high quality remakes and remasters. They released a high quality GaaS game going against the naysayers thinking Sony would abandon single player games. And they most likely are profiting a lot more than PS1, PS2 PS4 and the loss leading PS3 that drained all their profits.
Now, I'll wait to see what's cooking tomorrow. But can you use some of those profits to better support your high quality VR headset? Because, by supporting it, you can sell more games and more systems and make more profits?
This will surely shut up all the new trolling accounts trying to spread lies and non facts in other articles comment sections before this article is posted.
Wow! I am super impressed that in just 4 years, ps5 already caught up to the PS4's. Congratulations.
This sounds like a very interesting mobile gaming PC. ZOTAC returns to COMPUTEX 2024 to showcase its biggest push yet into brand-new product categories from Handheld Gaming.
lol, "PS$!"
I'd love to try it but I doubt I'll feel like driving to any of the locations they have for me. Living in one of the biggest cities in the US I really thought there'd be more locations.
I wanna go to a kiosk and try it
I tried Battlezone last week. I want to go back and try some of the others
If you haven't tried VR yet, you will definitely love it. I just bought a Vive for my PC and it's awesome but the lack of AAA titles is a drawback. I also have a PS4 and will definitely be considering the PSVR next Spring after I hear some feedback from gamers.
