Gran Turismo 7 in VR is Incredible 

It’s so crazy that you can now drive cars with that level of detail in VR, but I hope one day they make cars into a real thing!

I have a copy of Gran Turismo 2 on my desk at the moment (from replaying it). It made me think though about someone who worked on that game back in 1999, seeing the part at 1:38. Then my mind momentarily blew at how far it's come in those 25 years..

I pray that I never cross paths with Scott Speed in VR. My virtual windshield will be fully obstructed by the dust he leaves behind him 🫣

It's insane, that's my first VR experience ever and I'm amazed at how much it adds to the GT fun. Great video.

I played GT7 VR for like 30 mins tonight and it’s absolutely insane, how much easier is it to race clean now. Everything has scale. It’s like real racing. Crazy good.

You mention it feels intuitive, which I completely agree with. I tried GT Sport with the previous generation VR headset and I found that it made steering with the throttle incredibly easy. With a normal screen you can direct the front wheels but you have minimal information on what the back end of the car is doing. With VR you can sense so much more what the back end of the car is doing and it adds a whole new dimension to cornering

I can already imagine so many recreations, scenarios and funny clips with this. Imagine a POV shot inside the Dodge SRT Tomohawk X.

The level of detail combined with speed and fluidity when playing is amazing. Simply bravo Polyphony Digital 👏 Right, now back to looking at minute detail of nuts and bolts...

I have been watching steves videos for about two years and love every single one of them equally. keep up the awesome work

3 hours GT7 VR today. SuperFormula on Nurbergring was the most crazy thing. Absolutely stunned especially by Nurberging, which normally feels kinda dull esthetics wise - but just jaw dropping in VR

The sound of the rain on Spa is hypnotising

The race with the rain on the windshield is absolutely insane, so immersive can only imagine how it feels with the headset on. Tempted to grab one!!

Played with the headset a couple of hours yesterday , so much fun! Great to be able to use side mirrors etc and the interiors are insane 🥳 also the haptic stuff is pretty cool when making contact

My gosh, it looks gorgeous. I love this raw reaction recording. I hope you like it enough to keep using, because I as the viewer really enjoy the extra immersion.

Very interesting watching how the resolution of the HUD adjusts by tracking your pupils; not seen that technology at work before!

Certainly noticed the lighting going into the tunnel was much better. I reckon some go-carts n rally cross would be cool to see... they just need to add that new car smell now.

I must admit: what you're showing us in VR is spot-on. One day, I might try it. Keep up the good work.

its amazing the eye tracking. Obviously I can´t have the real experience watching this video on youtube but we can notice that on internal mirror just before Super GT looks into it that the quality of the mirror was blurry and when he looks the image is crystal clear. We can´t know exactly where he is focusing to in the screen but we can have an idea to where he is looking to. And I heard that on VR some people get faster simply because you have a better notion of distances. Great video

would love to see some Group C or LMP1 at Le Mans!!!

I am completely amazed by the level of detail and graphics in GT7 VR

VR has made me so much more consistent with my laps. The depth of feeling and gauging when to brake is so much more intuitive. Also just being able to look in the direction of an upcoming corner is huge. Haven't played it enough to say it's made me faster, but it definitely feels like I am.

Been playing GT7 on VR today, absolutely amazing!

Hi Steve! Just wanted to let you know you were the one who got me into sim racing. And I blame you for making me poorer for having to get a dedicated sim rig, and now you’re making me go poorer again because I’m going to go get the PS VR2 just for GT7. I’m having a blast though, so thanks! 🚙

That experience looks so cool! I want a VR set up now.

This was great. Would love to see you do Mount Panorama in a group 3 car in VR. Curious how the sense of scale is felt with a track that has a lot of elevation change. Also, any motion sickness?

Looking to get one! Looks insane 🤯

I could spend absolutely hours just checking out the cars. The whole thing looks so good

Great video Steve! You should make more videos with the VR, that thing looks AMAZING!

I've been playing Assetto Corsa on PC for a couple years now and it makes me soooooo excited to see a big devs like PD and Codemasters offering VR support. I would love if VR could become an industry standard option for players in all racing games.

This is actually insane it looks so good I need it

I’d love to see a ‘SuperGT does this 1 track 143 billion times to get a cracking time’ video with this. Would be interesting to see what your best time is compared to non-VR

I'm blown away by the quality. Even the pass through is crisp. My Quest 2 on PC with a 2070 super doesn't even look this good.

I can't afford it right now, but I have to get this VR headset sooner than later. Everyone I know, who is usually picky on framerate, latency and image quality, says that it's phenomenal.

Car track combos, Porsche: Spa Porsche: Suzuka Porsche: Red Bull Porsche: All Tracks Mercedes: All Tracks BMW: All Tracks All Cars: All Tracks 200 lap races each Sexy Super GT Commentary throughout

Please do your content from this pov more. I really like the immersion it's giving.

I love my VR on PC. Always found myself to be about a tenth off my ultimate times on PC Sims using it. But my lap times are always super consistent. The spatial awareness is massively improved. And I find i can now visually notice the car becoming unstable before the feeling comes through the wheel. Thus giving me another form of feedback that ultimately helps my Sim racing.

I need VR in my life 🕹

that foveated rendering with eye tracking is pretty awesome.

I’ve been waiting for GT7VR since the 90’s. It’s the only way to play now. Literal game changer.

So excited to see online races with this

IMAGINE being able to stand at the start/finish line during a esports championship final or spectating at youtube hill at the nurburgring... or passenger to your friend while they drive

You should totally do the really difficult last few license tests with VR

the graphics jump from GT Sport on PSVR 1 to GT7 on PSVR2 is crazy

Great review, I picked mine up yesterday and the sense of immersion is incredible. I was feeling the sun when driving open cockpit cars and actually getting an adrenaline rush. It did take a while to get situated in the "play space", I did need to move my seat around within the space in order to be able to see the mirrors on some cars. One other thing I noticed is that the low fuel warning is gone from the HUD, hopefully PD can bring that back!

This is awesome mate! I want VR only from now on! ❤

I have watched Jimmer's VR videos and they are so jarring but this looks so good and doesn't give me a headache watching this

That shit does look incredible. Literally the vision, the dream of VR.

Can’t wait to play this tomorrow 🤩

That rain sound is so good i want to relax in rain

I normally don’t like driving games or fps games but with VR2 I really think this will add something that I was missing before.

Dynamic Resolution on the peripheral view is how they are maintaining the game looking good and running pretty smooth. It's actually a pretty great way of lowering image quality where you aren't focused on to boost performance. Bravo Sony.

When I first tried gt7 in vr it was in my fxx at trial Mountain and I was amazed by the feel of the elevation changes. I was looking at my mirrors to see the opponents I passed but after that I kept getting distracted by the level of detail in the interior. Like I'm just looking at my seatbelt in the game and it's so real

PLEASE consider doing a 240Z on Trial Mountain, so hoping this looks as amazing as i think it would. Awesome stuff yet again, either way from you GT.

Playing GT Sport in VR was almost worth the £200 I paid for the headset. Can't imagine how much better this will be.. It's also cool because if you're driving a normal car, you can look at the back of the passenger seat and check the crumbs on the rug.. Unbelievable detail!

I got the psvr but this psvr2 I'll just get this for GT7. VR is great with any racing, flying games. It just makes so much sense when u play such titles in vr.

I desperately want to see a competitive race in a top lobby that you have in VR. Can you record and edit together the different camera perspectives? I would love a cockpit view of you passing Kie25 but I would prefer a mixture of cameras for perspective on the race. Thanks for your hard work. I've been a fan for a long time and congratulations on all your success.

Wait until you add a motion rig in VR, its insane. But yeah VR racing is next level and I was blown away by it in iracing.

It's amazing, it's like you're sitting in the cockpit and everything isn't flat around you, it's all of the objects in 3D around you - lean your head far enough and you can clip into the side bolsters of your headrest... Like I guess it's obvious it's supposed to be like that, but the first time you see it it's like... woah. Watching video footage of it just doesn't do it justice

I just got done with my first couple races in VR. Feeling a little queasy but that was awesome. Excited to go back in.

If you all wondering if in the headset this looks as good as on flat screen the answer is: YES , played 3 hours today, It's actually shocking how good this is.

Wow. Wasn’t going to get one, but after this vid, will be saving for one asap. Thx Super GT

It's such a surreal experience, after playing GT7 for years on a 2d screen to going to VR, it makes it so much easier to judge everything from overtaking to braking distance.. Definitely adds a huge level of excitement

Haven't used my VR for a long time but used to love Project Cars 2 on PC with it with a good steering wheel. So immersive. Making me want to hook it up again

I think Xbox is really losing out on not having a VR headset. This looks awesome!

Run the new Honda ‘65 F1 car on the California track. It’s incredible being out in the open and seeing everything about you. I AM LOVING THIS.

Can you do the spa 1 hour race? Would be good to see how the weather feels

I'm really impressed with PSVR2, it is amazing what Sony have created, and it is running on a console, has eye tracking, foveated rendering and works for people with a very large IPD (up to 75mm). I have over 800 hours in PC VR, been into VR for 6 years. I've had five VR headsets, Vive, Vive Pro, HP Reverb G2 (this lives in a box because Windows Mixed Reality is rubbish and the max IPD is too small for me), Vive Pro 2 (returned because the max IPD was too small, they down graded from the old headsets which had 74mm, down too 70mm), and I currently have a Pimax 8KX.

This is amazing, i just wish the price for everything needed to experience this, wasn't so huge..(PS5, GT7, VR Headset, rig, steering wheel all totals around $2100) 🤯🤯

The red bull x2019 concept on the nordschleife in VR would be a thing to behold

Great vid as always! Something you might want to mention to viewers while streaming or creating videos with PSVR2 is that it uses foveated rendering. This means the headset tracks your eyes and only renders the parts of the screen you are looking at at full quality. Your peripherals show reduced quality, but since you aren't looking there, you don't notice the reduction. This saves on processing power, allowing the headset to display higher resolution and framerates. The reason I bring this up is that viewers are looking at a 2D panel, and see exactly what you see. So we can see your peripherals. So we can see the reduced render quality on your recordings. I just think this is important for people to understand so they don't get the wrong impression of the PSVR2 or your recordings. Examples: 4:40 during the left hand turn, the HUD is extremely muddled on the right side of the screen. But in right turns, it becomes clear. 11:08 everything on the right side of the screen, especially the trees and windows

Seeing the vision GT cats in VR would be cool. Especially the McClaren

The depth perception and spatial awareness are what makes the difference, massive game changer

Thanks for showcasing this. The game looks incredible. It looks like this headset is finally a usable one. Did you get motion-sick?

I just did my.1st ever VR race, the 1hr of Spa with the 08 NSX and it was such a fun trip. I can't wait to play more of GT7 in VR

It's really cool and really immersive, can you do some VR daily race videos on your channel, I think it would be really cool.

I’ve been waiting all day for this upload!

Love seeing the way you look ahead at the apex for every corner. Proper incredible racing driver stuff!

Always a stunning video when I have time to visit your channel. PSV2 is absolutely incredible what you have shown. I'm still on PSV1 ...lol.

Remember that the PSVR2 uses Foveated Rendering, so you can actually see which part of the screen Steve's eyes are focused on.

always lovely to see SUPERGT in the flesh

This is absolutely awesome, forza is gonna have a hard time competing with this...

I would love to see some online races with the headset on! Must really feel closer to real racing, this new headset looks bloody amazing!

Will you be doing VR races going forward? It looks insane!

I spent 3hrs in VR GT7 last night and my biggest takeaway was that it won’t make me faster or slower….. but I will have more fun. Other comments about clean racing are spot on. My awareness on the track has really shot up.

Awesome! Would love for you to do more VR content. Thought you handled it well. Seeing as you haven't played VR much and haven't yet got your "VR legs". It's a testament on how far VR has come!

Woohooo was looking forward to hearing your impressions.

You said you’ve only played VR twice before yet you didn’t feel the need to hurl,very impressive right there. My first VR go was Drive Club and I almost barfed in half a lap.

GT Sport in VR was already pretty good and looking at this on a screen looks pretty much the same as that. It must be great with the new PSVR2 headset, PSVR is a real pain to not get blurry image with so little adjustment that headset has.

More VR content, please!

Nurburgring Nordschleife. The OG track is a must do. Any group 3 car of ur choice but maybe the 911 RSR? Or maybe a group 1 car... like the 919 hybrid

I remember back in 1997, when I played the first Gran Turismo on PS1, imagining that someday we might play GT in VR. Only concept of VR we had back then was scifi movies such as Lawnmower Man and Johnny Mnemonic. And here we are, finally a real GT game in VR. So far I will have to say it's an amazing experience (1 hour into it).

In VR, specifically ACC, I find that I'm a little slower than a screen, but more consistent. Some tracks are quicker in VR than a screen however.

I can’t believe we went from PS1 GT to this Real Life Racing Sim

Crazy how calm you are. And I recognized you moved your head close to nothing. Even in sharp corners you looked pretty straight forward. I've expected something else.

I like how we can kinda guess where you're looking due to the eye tracker and the graphics adjusting accordingly.

Imagine Sophy all over you in VR....for some reason that would worry me even more looking at the emoji change in my rear mirror! Car track combos? How about like, a few cars and the goodwood hill climb? :D

You should definitely do more videos in VR, that's cool.

that looks really immersive. I have quite a few hours of VR games under my belt but am too bad to play racing games and I get motion sick pretty easily if the movement aren't straight on and smooth. i tried Dirt racing in VR and barrel rolled off a cliff and almost threw up irl lol. I had to put it down after that.

Haven’t watched the channel in a while but was waiting to see you cover this in VR

Want to see a 'am I faster in VR' video and some daily races please 🙏
