Being able to look into your corners, gauge your speed better as you come into a breaking zone, watch your opponent while trying to keep your line in a corner, all impractical with just a TV screen. I do wish you could customize the HUD a bit more in VR, some cars the speedometer is just to damn small to read when in VR.

Online VR racing is the best online multiplayer gaming experience I've had in my life, hands down.

Even with this being my first foray into VR there was next to no motion sickness. I did notice my stomach 'lift' when coming over a big hill at speed, but that subsided the more laps I put in.

If you’re already a sim racer with a wheel setup then GT7 and a PSVR2 is such a great option. It really is amazing.

Unfortunately for me I’m just not into racing that much. I ended up selling my PSVR2 because it just became a dust collector.

Personally I find when I have time to game I don’t want to strap a helmet on. I much prefer to just sit on my couch and relax.

It’s pretty puzzling why Sony won’t show any support for the PSVR2. It feels like they were too deep in development on it and just decided to release it despite not having any plans to support it.

Besides GT7, Resident Evil, and Horizon (which although beautiful, wasn’t that much fun) everything you can play on PSVR2 you can also play on a Meta Quest 2 for 250 bucks less plus it’s wireless and has a bunch of productivity apps.

Sony hasn’t even revealed plans for a VR media player. For how much they are charging for the headset, it’s really baffling.
