GT Sport is looking good on PlayStation 4 Pro, that’s for certain, but there are still quite a few question marks hanging over the PlayStation VR support. One thing has now become clear: it won’t support PSVR across the entire game.
Speaking to Eurogamer, Kazunori Yamauchi said, “It will be one part of the game. One thing we discovered in developing and doing the VR, to do the whole game playable in VR is going to be a strain on the players. You can see in the demo downstairs, there’ll be a VR Tour mode that’ll be included in the game. That showcases the VR effects.”
That demo, which we played on Wednesday, was a limited showing, with just three cars to choose from and letting you drive around Willow Springs. It was good, the game running on PS4 Pro not suffering the same compromises as Driveclub VR, but is this is the kind of thing that Kaz meant when talking about a showcase of VR, and not a full on racing series, people will be understandably… disappointed, let’s say.
We’ll have to wait for more details on what this actually means, but it’s not that reassuring for those who bought a PSVR or are thinking of buying a PSVR specifically with GT Sport in mind.

I don’t understand how having the whole game is a strain on the players. I’ve played DriveClub VR for many hours at a time without any straining or other I’ll effects. I wouldn’t be surprised if the reason it’s not all VR is that it’s a strain on the old/slim PS4.

The problem with GT is they live off the past ps1/ps2 games and think there the master of all driving games …. how can they nearly skip a whole cycle of the ps4 to release a game with some half baked VR… when you have project cars, assetto corsa and driveclub to name a few with full on experiences, next we here we only can use our steering wheel set up on a few courses;)

Pretty damning to VR. It feels like every major game is adding a ‘VR experience’, but isn’t actually fully utilising the headset as a choice of display. It still remains a novelty, whereas I was hoping it would become a platform with GT Sport.

What the feck does this have to do with the article?
Bloody spam is starting to get more and more random.
At least start doing penis enlarger spam! We’ve yet to have that occur.
