At this point you are not going to get one in 3 days unless you buy off Kijiji. If there are even any drops before Christmas (doubt it) you won't have it in hand before the 25th.

Scalper prices have come down too.

Somebody was selling a PS5 Disc + Ratchet and Clank for $800 on facebook marketplace today.

Considering Ratchet and Clank regular retail is $80, and the disc PS5 is $630 that's really only $50 mark up once you include GST.

Was there a thread specifically for selling/trading games? Couldn't find it.

In case anyone is looking for AC Valhalla:

*Sold*

Got a refurbished Xbox Series X in a few days ago for the living room, and sold the last Xbox One X in the house that I'm allowed to sell.

Now I'm really thinking that the living room TV needs a refresh.

Have the drops for these systems just completely dried up? I haven’t seen much lately at all.

There was a big drop right after Christmas...think it was the 28th.

Hasn't been anything since then though.

New PS VR2 Details

https://blog.playstation.com/2022/01...gaming-on-ps5/
  • Visual Fidelity: For a high-fidelity visual experience, PS VR2 offers 4K HDR, 110-degree field of view, and foveated rendering. With an OLED display, players can expect a display resolution of 2000×2040 per eye and smooth frame rates of 90/120Hz.
  • Headset-based Controller Tracking: With inside-out tracking, PS VR2 tracks you and your controller through integrated cameras embedded in the VR headset. Your movements and the direction you look at are reflected in-game without the need for an external camera.
  • New Sensory Features: PS VR2 Sense Technology combines eye tracking, headset feedback, 3D Audio, and the innovative PS VR2 Sense controller to create an incredibly deep feeling of immersion. Headset feedback is a new sensory feature that amplifies the sensations of in-game actions from the player. It’s created by a single built-in motor with vibrations that add an intelligent tactile element, bringing players closer to the gameplay experience. For example, gamers can feel a character’s elevated pulse during tense moments, the rush of objects passing close to the character’s head, or the thrust of a vehicle as the character speeds forward. Additionally, PS5’s Tempest 3D AudioTech makes sounds in the player’s surroundings come alive, adding to this new level of immersion.
  • Eye Tracking: With eye tracking, PS VR2 detects the motion of your eyes, so a simple look in a specific direction can create an additional input for the game character. This allows players to interact more intuitively in new and lifelike ways, allowing for a heightened emotional response and enhanced expression that provide a new level of realism in gaming.

I just bought a Quest 2 but I'll probably end up getting this too for the exclusives. The first officially announced exclusive is a VR Horizon game.

PSVR2 is the first gaming related thing I'm going to pre-order in a very long time. It'll be my first foray into VR, I've held off because of a combination of price (PC VR) and poor 1st gen specs (PS4 VR). But this one looks amazing spec wise and if they can keep the price under $500 I'm in

FTFY, I didn't see any pictures/concept images of the unit yet but it sounds like it will be impressive!

Estimates on cost? $799 Canadian?

I'm pretty pumped for the PSVR 2. I've enjoyed the first one alot. Pretty excited to see what next Gen graphics and interface will do. Lately I've been playing a ton of Zen Pinball in VR. lol

I doubt it will be more expensive than the PS5 itself. My guess would be $599 CDN.

The Valve Index costs $1300 CDN.

If Sony puts this thing out at around $600 CDN, it'll be a hell of a deal.

I hope they have some sort of waiting list to order these - I think they're going to have a hell of a time with scalpers again.

Sounds like Microsoft has acquired Activision-Blizzard for a tidy 70-ish billion quid.

Does that mean all Activision-Blizzard games will be coming to Game Pass?

As many as possible seems to be the intention, yes.

I bet they will but I would expect a price hike or a separate tier. That’s a lot of AAA game franchises.
