Hey! Syrsly here! This is my blog!
I talk about Game Dev, Art, Movies, TV shows, Streaming, Code, VR and Tech in general.
The Playstation VR2, affectionately called PSVR2, is a wired VR headset from 2023 that came out exclusively for the Playstation 5. However, back in August, a PSVR2 PC adapter came out, which means this console VR device is now a PCVR device as well.
The PSVR2 is on sale right now on a variety of storefronts for $349! That's the cheapest it's ever been, and it comes with Horizon: Call Of The Mountain...
Sometimes, I see a really pointless, inferior product and wonder "Maybe there's a reason tons of people buy this?" The answer is almost always that those people are ignorant of the better solution. This product, the PrismXR Carina W1 Portable Charger 30W, is nothing more than a fancy-looking battery strap you can wear multiple ways that comes with cable organization tools. It's not cheap at $40 sale price ($60 regular price), and I would not have bought this... but as a reviewer, I tend to get things for free, so... yeah, I got this for free, and I decided to review it here for others to be able to find information about not just this product but a better solution.
Okay, so the product in a vacuum is not bad....
There are a lot of times in VR's history which led to tons of user adoption, and one of those times was when Google created a mobile app that turned your phone into a simple VR headset that could look around at depth-enabled content and even connect wirelessly to your computer to play games with stereoscopic 3D visuals. Soon after that, Disney partnered with HTC to advertise a Google app called Tilt Brush which ran on the HTC Vive as a launch exclusive. Tilt Brush was actually release April 2016 as a freebie for Vive purchasers. That's right, Tilt Brush was a launch title for the HTC Vive, and its advertising was about Disney using it to create 3D Little Mermaid drawings. Times were simpler...
I'm so disappointed in The United - yeah right - States of America, and I can't emphasize enough how sorry I am for the world to have to endure our country's worst leader another 4 years...
