It's about fucking time Sony. I will definetly be getting this when its available.

It's finally happened although you now still need a supposedly less intrusive Meta account. Too bad they put the devices up by £100 last month - people were in limbo because they wanted to get one before the increase but didn't want to be left in the dark as to when Facebook would finally remove the login. As per scummy practice as usual, they leave people in the dark on the cheap and then bait people as the price rockets Finally, the Quest 2 no longer requires a Facebook login | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM A simple email address will suffice.

@LordBaguette I've merged your post into the Saints Row thread but the wrong way round so keeping your title👍

Looks like another mediocre disappointment. Seems to be the theme for 2022. Might buy it when its 14.99

Definitely interested in that if I can afford anything after paying for my gas and electricity 😁

Yeah. Same. Hopefully it won’t be as scarce as the console.

I believe my phrasing was "This cunt I know suggested..." 🤪 But, in all seriousness. Adrian's good shit. I spoke with him last night about it and we're gonna see what we can do.

I didn't know there had been an update on this game but not looking good according to this chap.

After playing through the initial bit of it, It's definetly saints row. It's plays pretty much like the previous games in the series and in all honesty, doesn't look any better than those said versions. I'm really disappointed they didn't try to create some new assets like fonts, or imagery for this "remake/reboot." Right off the bat, when I seen the same ole saints row font on all the in game menus, I knew right then that this was just gonna be "more of the same." It's been fun at least. I will give it that. It still has that SR charm, but I expected a lot more from something touted as a "next-gen reboot" of the series. At least I didn't pay full price for it. Lucky me! 🤪

I was looking forward to it, hope it's not as bad as it sounds...

Tempted to pick up a VR headset sometime and the Oculus Rift S right now is going fairly cheap at £100 off. The only catch seems to be that support for the unit is being stopped as newer models like the Quest 2 are being prioritised. However, a further concern is that the device has a fucking Facebook account requirement to function apparently that is now being enforced. I quit that platform many years ago and have no desire to return especially just to run a piece of electronic equipment. At this rate you'll need to be online to use your toilet and do a shit soon the way technology is going. I just want to use a device and not have any commercial crap attached. Anyone got any experience with the Oculus headsets and any more information about this? Index is too expensive, Vive is also pricey and the mixed reality HP ones are largely unavailable in the UK. Oculus ticks all the boxes aside from the Facebook requirement. I've also heard whispers people getting locked out of their devices because of separate issues with their Facebook accounts and also investigations in Germany about the legality of such things. I may have to give it a miss because of all this added bullshit. Don't want the headache.

Seems reasonable to me, however this ain't any random guy on the Internet.......................It's Diddums! That's right Fucking Diddums. Better get that backdrop sorted Adrian or I will send Diddums round to your house. 🤔 I'm sure you will tell him Chad. 🙂

Some great news Oculus Quest VR headsets to eliminate mandatory Facebook account log-in requirement | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM You will soon no longer need a personal Facebook account in order to play your Oculus VR headset. It's also good that you can pick up a 128gb one for £299 now. As soon as they remove the Facebook requirement then this may become an interesting proposition especially with San Andreas now confirmed for VR. I'd love to play RE4 and Alyx this way. Anyhow, fuck Zuckerberg and Facebook.

It has a fatal flaw. Facebook😆

This is interesting Oculus Quest 2 120Hz update potential makes the Valve Index a far tougher sell | PC Gamer WWW.PCGAMER.COM Oculus Quest 2's 120Hz update could make it a better VR headset than Valve's pricey goggles.

Seems I'm in good company in this thread as I went for the index. For me this was driven by it's one of the few HMD's that fit as my IPD (basically the distance between your eyes) is ~70-71mm and most HMD's top out in the 60's. Though I also went for the index for the buy right buy once motto as at the time it was the best (And arguably still is). Though if you're looking at the Rift S, I thought the facebook profile thing was coming in but if you already had an Oculus account it would carry on or something like that? It isn't something I looked too deeply in to though so there's a good chance I'm wrong. Sadly no HMD is perfect; between God rays, chromatic aberration, resolutions, black levels, refresh rates etc. each one has some negative about it. The Rift S does get recommended a lot though and, anecdotally, I'd say when I was looking all recommendations were for the Rift S or Index depending on budget. So assuming the Rift S would fit, I don't you'd be disappointed with it.

I think I’ve tried all the VR headsets apart from the PSVR, the Index wins hands down for me. It’s not just resolution, the fit and feel is a lot nicer. Also the controllers are the dogs ballz.

@tronic44 you tried them at all? I know @McNasty and @Greboth just picked up VR headsets so they might be able to chime in if they have any experience or comparison.

If I was to splash out I'd go for the Index. I don't have a Facebook account and don't plan to until the day it's the only way to get my Soylent Green.
