Time to be EXCITED for VR Again 

Minecraft gaming channel type comment ^^

Ok

Yes I'm finally cool! Love your content sir!

@@ky333333333 thanks

Maybe, but only a piece of shit tries to bully me into it.

Completely agree! Meta is a pretty terrible company I think we can all agree but they aren't giving up on VR which is commendable in my book!

Agreed. I'm also not a fan of Zuck and his decisions BUT Meta has been carrying mainstream VR on its shoulders!

The Quest is easily the most supported and updated gaming device ever.

@@HUMDUDEthey arnt even that terrible imo. All their services are free so it shouldnt really surprise anybody that they are making money of your data, you get free services in exchange. I have rather that buisness model than paying for extremly overpriced products

I played VR 2 on PS5 I was soo disappointed on the resolution it's still blurry then I checked out quest 3 big difference on the quality and interface and I love the that there's a app you can use to watch movies in a theaters room it's been the best thing I've used meta quest 3 for before bed and the games are fantastic in there! I just wish the battery life was better but I've been using a cable that charges as I play extends the device duration for another 2 hours so.

VR with the wife is awesome, so many co-laction games now too.

​@VR_Ready Is there really? What are some good ones? Like can you play story modes together.

I gave my godson my quest 2 when I got a quest 3. I thought he would barely use it. He is like a beat saber god now. Hardest levels at the highest difficulty. He has the nerve to want to battle me. I have a hard time with easy on BS lol

@@frozenninja4030 that's awesome. Hope Meta throws more at us in the future. It's really the future of gaming IMO.

Fave games together?

I hope in 5 years we manage to stick RTX 4060’s or RTX 3080’s in headsets with ample cooling and a good cpu, running steam games on a standalone headset would be such a game changer.

Dude that's like saying "people complain about the price but then they buy a car" 😂 if you're using your VR as much as your phone, you're defo using one of them wrong

@@tanyabones215Yeah you beat me to it, a phone as a thousands times more use cases where it’s price is more than justified. It’s more than an entertainment device, it’s a tool, VR on the other hand is a very niche product, my question quest 2 literally sits on my shelf collecting dust.

@@CASA-dy4vsonly thing is though, wouldn’t those headsets just cost as much as a pc? You’re better off getting a computer

@@MajoraNoodleArms not really, those cards are going through price reductions so they’d end up only costing 500 bucks like a quest 3

True but the Quest 2 will continue to get support for at least a few more years.they have taken it out of production but with such a large user base,I don’t think they will be in any hurry to completely abandon it.with that being said,I definitely expect to see more games coming that are exclusive to Quest 3 like Batman.I think they are going to want to push the Quest 3 hardware to the limit to make Quest 2 owners feel like they need to upgrade.I expect Quest 2 will still have plenty third party games to look forward to though

That sounds really cool! What are some games you'd recommend for kids on the younger side? I'm looking for games without "social" elements, bonus points if it supports private co-op.

@@dmon1088 Elven Assasins, Blaston, Beat Saber are really good. They can be private co-op. Also Among Us but, you have to have at least 4 for private.

for real dude nobody is focusing on FOV other than pimax and theyre such a mixed bag. i would trade our color passthrough on the Quest 3 for a much wider FOV any day. it increases immersion so much.

FOV is overrated. All high fov headsets have garbage edge to edge clarity anyways

I own the Pimax5KSuper and having that large FOV feels like you’re playing on Triple Monitors it most definitely makes a difference. I just recently got my Pimax Crystal Light and its FOV is similar to my Quest 3 but, because the image is so sharp and crystal clear. You feel like you gain more FOV in distance. Being able to see such detail even far away is amazing. If you ask me which one is better FOV or Clarity. I would go with Clarity. Best Visuals I have ever seen it is Magnificent!

Yeah Quest 4 should focus on FOV and eye tracking etc to squeeze more out of the chip.

@@deejnutz2068 I don't think edge to edge clarity matters. It's the fact that it'll feel more real without the black binocular effect we get. Edges aren't crisp in real life either, they're blurry.

I agree 100%,Ive always been a huge fan of the Metro games.Metro Awakening is gonna be intense.the Metro games always had intense moments and in VR,it’s going to bring it up to another level..I can’t wait to run through that Russian subway system and start sending those mutants to hell

I hope so,there are so many great flat screen games that would be incredible in VR.any of the old Call of Duty or Battlefield campaigns,Fallout 3 and New Vegas,Mass Effect,Witcher 3,any sim racer,Dead Space,Tomb Raider,etc..the possibilities are endless

I’m ready to see some gameplay for the Batman game,I’m going to be highly disappointed if they drop the ball.

Prey is great. Although only ok for people with vr legs.

@@casteldredge I’m assuming you are talking about games that require PC,right?

@@Thomas-cr2pt are you talking about the Prey game that came out last gen with the shape shifting mimics?I bet that would be amazing in VR…I gotta get a PC

​@@garrettferrell6821no prey 2006. Its standalone dr beef port.

@garrettferrell6821 no, all of those run natively on the quest.

That is only part of the reason I want to get a PC to use with my Quest 3.I used to play Dirt Rally VR on PSVR1 and it was a lot of fun.I can only imagine how awesome a good sim racer would be in VR with the steering wheel and pedals

Underworld Overseer?is it based on the Underworld movies by chance?

@@garrettferrell6821 No idea, never seen the movies. It seems to resemble the flat screen game Dungeon Keeper by Bullfrog.

@@andrewthomson5266 I looked it up,it’s not based on the movies

@@jessekoepp3928 I agree,this showcase was weak af..I was hoping for a big announcement or 2..like wtf is going on with GTA:San Andreas? I need another Resident Evil VR remake,Dead Space 2,Mass Effect 2,Silent Hill,Witcher 3,Saints Row,classic CoD and Battlefield campaigns,Prey,Fallout 3 & New Vegas,etc Im really excited for Metro:Awakening,Hitman 3 and Alien..I look forward to seeing some gameplay for Batman too.I want more good VR ports and/or games based off popular flat screen franchises like they are doing with Metro:Awakening

With a solid network, compression and artifacts are nearly nonexistent. I have 16 headsets, the quest 3 is finally there in terms of pc performance. It lots much better than my index and even prefer it over the bigscreen beyond

The quest 3 is a nice upgrade but 500 is a lot. It depends on your budget

Same,I’m a huge fan of the Metro series and spraying down a bunch of mutants charging at you in VR is going to be intense.I can’t wait to step into that Russian subway system

yup

hell yeah, me too

Meta commercial

@@Gamingwithmatteo311 Found it, thanks. I cannot wait for behemoth.

Facts, I want a higher end headset

I just want a headset capable of wireless PCVR, that has an XR2 Gen 2 chipset for the best streaming quality, has OLED screens/lenses and is somewhat light (around 400-600 grams). What's amazing is that a headset that features all of this is not out and also not announced. Something like this is easily possible to put into a $700-$1000 device. And if it becomes somewhat of a succes you can try to drive the price down to $400-$500 in 6-12 months after release. And if you play it smart you'll probably be able to release a $300 one like 2 years after the release of the initial one with some improvements that's cheaper to produce and then alongside it a higher end model. I feel like one's actually trying to make VR grow properly these days. Not even Meta's trying hard enough, if they were they'd have released a Q3 with an OLED screen. Or heck, their Quest Pro would've had an XR2 Gen 2 chip instead of being an extremely expensive deluxe version of the Quest 2. All of them are pretty much straight up trying to avoid the biggest issues in VR.

@@thenonexistinghero owning my one little small business my self, people are incredibly cheap tbh, it’s difficult to sell premium products, past $200 it’s a bigger financial decision, not that I would have the knowledge and things of meta but just my 2 cents, they have to make the headsets dirt cheap for people to buy them. Because there hasn’t been a era defining VR software that is a system seller. One day that will happen, a piece of software will be so intriguing the general public will have to buy

@@biggpapaclay There's enough people willing to invest some money into PC VR to make it grow as long as the right products are offered. The main problem is that what's offered simply isn't good enough for the price. And I think the best way to make it grow is to introduce a proper standard, then work towards making that standard as cheap as possible. Most people don't want to be stuck to a cable when playing VR, but they also don't want it to feel like playing cheap mobile phone games. To make it grow you'll have to make it a magical experience. And that magical experience is a combination of lightweight & comfortable, wireless with good streaming quality and deep blacks. Also high enough resolution I guess but resolution isnt exactly an issue anymore. For me personally I was very happy when I got my Pico 4 and got rid of being stuck to a cable with the Reverb G2. Could be more comfy I guess, but it's lightweight enough and the weight distribution is superb. Only real issues I have with it is the streaming quality being a bit too low and the blacks being on the greyish side. And well, the biggest issue by far is the greyish blacks. Miniled could have acceptable levels, but for VR is probably best to go with OLED. Currently I think the greyness breaks the immersion. And I'm in no way an OLED fanboy or anything. I'd never buy an OLED TV because they simply wouldn't last more than 3 years before burning in with my TV viewing habits. I just think it's the best option for VR. Anyhow, I'm just confused about headset makers. Not a single one seems to even be remotely interested in focusing on these 4 things in a headset. And if something like that became successful, there would probably also be more focus on the quality of streaming PCVR to strain the system less and perhaps even be able to develop codecs specifically for PCVR streaming. I think we could've been at this point already. Arpara was able to create a 'decently priced' headset with a cable that had all the things I mentioned and were (supposedly still are) working on one that's wireless. Turned out to be 'somewhat' of a scam, but also not entirely. The wired version can be bought and gotten. The software experience is horrible, but it exist and was released quite a while ago. I have no faith in them actually delivering something proper eventually, but it's about the hardware existing and a small company was able to create it. Meaning something like this is very much technologically possible for the pricing window that I mentioned.

@@thenonexistingherosome of you are obsessed with OLED displays. Meta doesn’t suddenly not care about VR because they’re not releasing devices with OLED displays. They’re not perfect.

Quest 3 isn’t that heavy, it’s a bit lighter than a quest 2 in some cases and is slim.

:)

I don't see it happening but who knows

Hitman 3 should be much better as it is being remade just for VR.the last Hitman VR was an after thought built off the back of the flat screen version.

@@ZFCaio awesome

If you are a collector of games. Like to play different games at the same time, and want to do more than just gaming go with the 512. If you are very focussed in what you play and like, 128 is enough. Requires uninstalls though.

The extra space would allow for the loading of movies for watching when streaming is not available.

I personally got the 128gb and it can hold quite a few of games.if need be,you can always delete games you no longer play and redownload them later if you need to Personally,I would get the 128gb and spend the rest of that money on games

The price was already high on the quest 3, that's the main reason

@@Gamingwithmatteo311 I don't really care about the price, I care about the functionality, why would I upgrade from my quest 2 for anything other than eye tracking and foveated rendering. What I wanted was basically what the psvr2 offers but in a standalone wireless form factor. Honestly as long as they can provide eye tracking natively for less than $1000 I would have been really happy. I buy cheap phones, but a $4,000 pc, I don't own a car, but my vr/gaming budget is $200 a month. The problem is that pass through isn't a selling point for me because it's nothing but a tech demo and a gimmick that promises a future, as where foveated eye tracking is a massive improvement that is to quality, comfort, and would help Bridge the gap between standalone and pc quality. Plus I really want to try mixing UE5 nanite with eye tracking. 🤯

what service do you use to stream games?

The Quest 3S will sell more than Quest 2 very soon, since Quest 2 no longer being produced and 3S will be more affordable than Quest 3.

I used to get all my stuff on the Meta end because you almost always got the PC and standalone versions for one purchase. Cross buy isn’t very common these days though and the PC side of the store is basically dead.

@Thezuule1 I do like you can get a 25% discount from people's links but it doesn't work for me most of the time

@@86themadhatter27 I think those codes only last for like a week or so. There’s always sales in any case. Between Meta, Steam, and Humble Bundle sales I’ve been able to build a decent library without spending anywhere near what it would’ve cost outright.

Meta is really going to have to start pushing out some higher quality games that will push the Quest 3 hardware to the limits to get the Quest 3 to do the type of numbers the Quest 2 did

The Walking Dead: Saints & Sinners is an absolut must play, IMO. Underdogs. A rogue-like arena fighter has the best contact feeling of any VR game I've played so far. The story is also very captivating. Blade & Sorcery is for those players that like a little fun. The story is not the best and the gameplay is fine, however, you'll spend more time than you'll admit with this one. Pick it up if you're out of good story games. If you're into old consoles and would like to play them again - Look for EMU VR. The absolut best enulator VR experience. And it's free. This one have had me entertained through 3 BoBoVR batteries several times. Into The Radius 2 is about to drop. The first one is a highly regarded game and it's successor is meant to improve uppon a lot of it and introduces co-op as well. I'll be picking this one up for sure. Dungeons of Eternity is a standalone VR game for Meta Quest. It feaures co-op and is an absolut fucking blast to play with friends. Even my GF loves to play it (Her VR experience has been Beat Saber for the most part).

Walking Dead:Saints & Sinners 1 & 2,Resident Evil 4,Population:One(it’s free),Arizona Sunshine 2,Boneworks,Ghost of Tabor,Medal of Honor,Zero Caliber(the sequel is about to come out too),Golf+,Into the Radius,Medieval Dynasty,Espire 2,Super Hot,Pistol Whip,Beat Saber,Trover Saves the Universe and After The Fall are all great options

I also recommend the Sea Band bracelets,they will help with motion sickness until you can gain your VR legs

Microsoft Flight Simulator, Riven, Madison, The Forest, Skyrim, The Climb

lol, comes with a free trip to vomit city

Your internet is irrelevant to local streaming. The data never leaves your home router and it does far more than 100Mb locally.

yeah ure right! but my router wifi with 5 Gz frequency in wifi 6 standard is revelant cause 2.4 Gz did not not work too good. I've also tried GeForce cloud gaming on my steamdeck and that 100 Mb download was working fine with some titles but gamepass cloud on Quest 3 was not. I've only tried fortnite on gamepass cloud cause it is free and I do not have subscription

@@jbcpopis 2.4ghz definitely doesn’t work as well for streaming stuff. Not sure what the technical stuff is between 2.4ghz and 5ghz that makes such a big difference but it does.
