Okay so I actually missed the first few minutes of the stream and had no idea so much was shown. All I saw was Days Gone, Concrete Genie, and MK11 I think.
Iron Man and NMS VR look awesome, and HEY WE GOT DATES FOR Blood and Truth and Vacation Simulator!!! I'm happy with that.
Do we have any idea how often they're going to do these SoP streams?

Kinda still is until ALL of Sony's big franchises are made with VR in mind. Is there any current or upcoming AAA franchises using VR?
VR is amazing but at this stage it can't provide the best experience in every genre that Sony makes AAA games in; I'd say they're doing an admirable job playing to their hardware's strengths at the moment and the number of meaty VR titles in general is growing.
No, but there's Blood and Truth which looks like a AAA game VR title.
Dreams has PSVR support and Blood & Truth is called a AAA VR game by the devs.
Everybody's Golf VR also goes in a higher budget direction.
I assume you guys know what I meant or are you being disingenuous?
Disingenuous ?
I thought It was already known that games like Days Gone, Tlou2, GoT or Death Stranding don't have VR support.
But sry for giving you an answer and I will not do that again...
All of them? Wow, that's not moving the goalposts, that's loading the goalposts onto a rocket and shooting it out of the Solar System. :D
The premise of your argument is flawed. VR doesn't work well with traditional games, and if you didn't know this then maybe do a bit of research before taking on said topic.
VR doesn't need big names, it needs good games designed specifically for the platform. And Sony has proved this with Astro Bot last year, and oculus with Lone Echo the year before.

Said every successful platform ever.
Also I thought you can play Skyrim in VR. And didn't Sony just release a platformer on VR. What is a "traditional game"? Your discussion points are being disingenuous again...
What am I moving the goal post from?

While you're at it, might as well bold and underline the remaining sentence for context.
You can, you can also tell it wasn't made with VR in mind.
Yes, unlike any other platformer on the market. It's the best thing since cheese.
Games played on your TV/monitor.
I think you might need to go look up the definition disingenuous.
Awesome!! Cant wait for Blood & Truth. Regarding Concrete Genie - entire game is playable in VR?
mk11 as in mortal kombat 11?
In vr? In vr separate game or mk 11 is also compatible in vr, whats vr its a 2.5 d
game , how would that even work?
Is Everybody's Golf a separate title or a free add-on?
I own it on disc but it's on sale digitally at the moment which I find easier for VR titles ... looking at NMS now also!

I'm super happy with the amount of new VR content they showed off. Keeps on pushing it into mainstream for the platform itself to grow.
In for Iron Man, NMS, Falcon Age, Vacation Simulator and Concrete Genie. To be honest, the only disappointing part of that presentation was that Concrete Genie is Fall 2019. I was hoping for spring/summer and a concrete release date. Pun intended.
He means that those particular announcements were enough to make the State of Play stream worth it. But no, MK11 isn't in VR. However, that concept has been tried already though. Bamco made a VR mode for Tekken 7 which was lack luster.
Slightly off topic but did anyone else notice the PS2 system sound effects when state of play was switching between game demonstrations?
Like clockwork what? The poster I responded to opened up for criticism when they made that post...
And has been said before, Sony doesn't put it's all (big AAA franchises) to VR like Nintendo will do for all its platforms. A huge testament to Vita's failed state, it leaves that up to 3rd parties which may or may not follow through. It doesn't exhume confidence at all. Small experimental games does not show confidence...
1. Yes, a platform NEEDS big names to be successful. We have an enormous amount of history that proves this.
2. So what you are saying is that they CAN build games like that with VR in mind? What's stopping Sony from making a game like Killzone to support VR like RE7?
3. You don't say? That game proves the above point.
4. Ok. So your "traditional games" is not about the genre of game but the platform used. Got it.
5. Yes, you are acting like you don't know what I meant.

What I still dont understand and hopefully somebody can help me here.
Concrete genie has "VR modes", so does this mean the main part of the game isnt in VR? Im not interested in Concrete Genie as a regular game, so for me its either in VR or im not interested.

Golem?! Wow hopefully they show this off again soon.
History doesn't prove jack when it comes to VR. I'll acknowledge that big names do help to some degree, but you can't just slap on VR or include half-assed additions. VR needs games built specifically for the system.
My original point flew right over your head. They can build almost any genre in VR. What's stopping Sony? Maybe their allocation of resources. Why on earth would you want a tacked on Killzone experience they're making Blood and Truth from the ground up for VR?
What on earth are you talking about :s
Yes, you got it. Why do you seem confused in your earlier points.
I do know this word, lol. You've been calling me disingenuous since your first reply. You want to have a conversation or throw around accusations?
They didn't detail anything but it seems the full game won't be in VR but it will include two VR modes. The PlayStation Blog had this to say:
So, it seems that one mode is an " immersive first-person painting experience"
1./2. No one says anything about being "tacked on". This is the disingenuousness I was talking about. They can build the games from the ground up. Pretty sure if Nintendo was pioneering VR, you bet your ass they would build a Mario game from the ground up to sell the idea to the masses.
3. That Sony can build games in any genre that they want to work with VR; Astro Bot being one example but it will not get people to run out in droves to buy VR.
4. Disingenous : not candid or sincere, typically by pretending that one knows less about something than one really does.
Not even a game like this gets the full VR experience from Sony smh...
Your issue with Sony seems to stem from the lack of popular exclusive PlayStation games on VR - this is understandable. But your original comment is simply absurd, you think they can't do well without porting their big names over to VR.
I think they can continue to grow without the big AAA names, as long as Sony/indies continue to works on good intuitive games designed specifically for VR.
That's the difference between Sony and Nintendo. Sony is known for cultivating new IPs.
Nothing will get people to run out in droves to buy VR, not even Call of Duty. PSVR is a first-gen tech with an uphill battle. Sony is doing good so far.
Welldone for posting Google's definition. Maybe now you'll realise this word doesn't really fit in this discussion.
1. It could've been more successful if Sony actually put weight behind it. As my original posts suggested. Sales are so minuscule compared to the PS4 sales.
2. So Nintendo isn't known to cultivate New IPs too, gotcha./
3. You base this on no proof that Call Of Duty couldn't sell VR units...
4. Yes, you were acting like you didn't know what I was talking about.
Your argument is getting dumber by the post. PSVR is the most successful and accessible premium platform in its category - it has sold more than Rift and Vive combined, do you think this happened without content?
Sony has put actual weight behind PSVR and it shows.

Do you think all of this content has just magically appeared out of thin air?
Yup, unless you know something I don't.
Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare has a VR mode, lol.
I knew exactly what you were talking about, as a consequence, I was trying to show you an alternative point of view. You asked if there were any AAA (presumably Sony) franchises using VR, I answered this with an unequivocal NO and followed it up with an exclusive game with good production values.
This is where your accusation of disingenuity started, that's why I questioned if you understood what it meant to be disingenuous.
Now let me showcase actual disingenuous behaviour:
