Something like a Quest Pro is basically past the point of making 99% of people nauseous. The high-res full color passthrough means you can look at actual real world visual reference points if needed, which combined with the totally open sides (aka you have full peripheral vision, which is SIGNIFICANT for the motion…

All the people doubting that Meta can pull this off without traditional tracking pucks ala Vive Trackers are likely gonna end up looking like all the people that said controller-less hand tracking would be impossible without a dedicated hand tracker like a Leap Motion. 🤷♂️ Aka like short-sighted idiots. Bet against…
No actually. See the sensor free hand tracking Meta’s already been able to pull off. Using a combination of the tracking cameras on the headset + REALLY advanced AI, this is totally possible. RIDICULOUSLY hard to pull off, but totally possible.
... The exact same way their groundbreaking controller free hand tracking works you dingus... Aka using a combination of the visual tracking cameras + machine learning. This is TOTALLY possible. Ridiculously hard, most definitely, but totally possible.
This is the same thing everyone said about hand tracking without external sensors... Until Meta cracked that completely using just the tracking cameras. Anyone counting out Meta completely as not being able to pull this off at this ridiculously early moment is an idiot with no awareness of the VR technology space.
What ”software features” that AMD’s supposedly still missing/lacking are you even talking about here? 😑 FSR 2.0/2.1 is EVERY bit DLSS 2.X’s equal in all the ways that really count (& can be easily modded into most existing games w/ DLSS 2 support), they have a quality RTX Voice-alike, & the semi-recent addition of B…
Just wait for Quest 3 next year and ignore Sony’s disgustingly anti-consumer trash. Unlike Meta, Sony has proven unwilling & unable to make a proper cross-gen compatible VR software platform, so why invest money into a platform for software that will become unavailable the second new hardware shows up? Answer? You…
This decision has absolutely ZERO technical basis in reality. There is no reason whatsoever that PSVR 1 titles shouldn’t “just work” on the new hardware. That’d be like buying a new monitor that refused to play certain games. It's absolutely delusional. They are doing this STRICTLY for anti-consumer financial reasons.…
This is NONSENSE! VR headsets don't work like that! They are basically just an over-glorified display! There's absolutely ZERO technical reasons PSVR 1 games can't work on PSVR 2 with basically no work required!
... Except VR hardware doesn’t work ANYTHING like that! It’s mostly just a over-glorified display. There’s absolutely ZERO technical reasons PSVR 1 games shouldn’t “just work” on PSVR 2 with basically no work. This is just Sony being anti-consumer to be anti-consumer out of greed. (They want new games sales not being…
Just in case you needed yet ANOTHER example of the radical far left craphole that Kotaku has become since Jason Schreier and all the other actual games industry journalists left... 😑🤦♂️
Just in case you needed any more evidence that Kotaku has become nothing but a radical far left propaganda rag... -_- ... Remember the days of Jason Schreier and ACTUAL games industry journalism instead of the constant incessant obsessive whinging & whining about identity politics this site has now become? Pepperidge…
This article perfectly typifies everything wrong with modern Kotaku... Remember when Jason Schreier still worked here and they did ACTUAL journalism instead of just being an identity politics obsessed ultra far-left zoomer rag???... Pepperidge Farms remembers. -_-
Lol so does Patricia just never NOT have the ABSOLUTE WORST takes??? O_o
This is a pile of absolute f**king nonsense... The 64GB eMMC model is PLENTY usable! First off, no current games REQUIRE an SSD, meaning SD card play works PERFECTLY FINE for ANY GAME you could want! (w/ the obvious downside of anywhere from like +0-50% longer load times.)
My jealousy cannot be explained with mere words... God damn “After Q3" reservation! 😑🤦♂️
“how often are you gaming away from your rig?”
Most reviewers actually PRAISED the Deck’s ergonomics (or were at worst, neutral). This review’s take on that particular aspect just happens to be FAR from the commonly accepted norm. I would definitely at least give it a shot. And then if it just REALLY doesn’t work for you, just return it. 🤷♂️
“Verified” titles can still need some minor to heavy control reconfiguring for the ideal Deck play experience, but they’ll basically for sure run well!
