Gran Turismo 7 PSVR2 review: one of the best VR experiences on PS5 - Eurogamer

It's the quality of the games that will make or break PlayStation VR2 - and launch titles supplied in the review period did not quite convince. Gran Turismo 7 was made available to journalists and public alike at the headset's launch - and it's a game-changer. In this video, John breaks down how good the VR upgrade is, and how Sony achieved it, with head-to-head comparisons with the standard 'flat' version of the game.

F*ck yeah it is... pardon my language. I played it in VR for the first time last night. I tried to get into VR1 but had issues. The VR2 is so awesome. No lens fogging, higher res and fps. And Rez Infinite made me feel like being in the movie lawnmower man.

Can't wait for more.

[SullysCigar]

Lol your language is warranted @darthv72, I couldn't have said it better myself!

[darthv72]

I'm not very far into the game but I want to progress to experience the spectator mode. So far in replays I can only switch cars to follow or be inside or outside the car. I want to see things from the side of the road like some have said.

[Darth] Skip past the auto replay after a race. On the next screen, instead of hitting the continue/next option to the far right, look for the replay option and scroll down to VR REPLAY... ; )

[darthv72]

^^thanks... I will do that tonight after work.

[MADGameR]

Why would you go back to PSVR1 after trying it with PSVR2? LOL Your logic is flawed my friend.......

[darthv72]

I think you read that wrong. I didn't allude to going back to VR1 after getting VR2.... at all.

Now i will say i have several VR1 games i want to play, but I can't due to my own issues. I would hope many get the VR2 support so i may fully enjoy them. For now, i just dont play them.

VR is the future and Sony has already got a head start.

[Aloymetal]

Kayak VR is also amazing. A must for VR!

[mandf]

I want it but I'm buying the vr, racing wheel, chair setup, and 4 games for it. Is it truly worth it as a must have? I will trust your opinion

[darthv72]

I've seen some of those racing chair setups... pretty nice. I'd want one with hydraulics to pitch and yaw with every turn.

[Aloymetal]

It is truly worth it, as a matter of fact after playing GT7, HCOM and a few others, Kayak VR looks the best and the immersion is jaw dropping. Absolutely stunning!

I'm getting a 500 max.wheel. I'm going through a divorce and this my treat to myself for 20 years of crap. Basic setup is all I need. I with you on wanting what you want.

[mandf]

Thank you I will get it. I agree it looks the best. It's going to be an expensive month

[darthv72]

okay... now i gotta try that out. It looks crazy real.

[Aloymetal]

You won't regret it, trust me. It's so good.

[outsider1624]

You should try Pavlov too...a sort of Counter strike game in VR

[Aloymetal]

Great, gotta look into that one.;)

[mandf]

Aloymetal I bought kayack and it was intense for my first vr game. Thank you for the suggestion. Wow oh wow. Much better than I thought it was going to be

[Aloymetal]

Ha, nice! Glad you liked it;)

[darkrider]

Yeah even DF is amazed. It's really the next step in racing. I think even the way I'm driving it's diferent. This is next Gen racing. Amazing job from PD and Sony.

Not just one of the best VR experience on PS5, one of the best VR experiences, period. It’s massively more immersive in VR, leagues better than GT Sport was on VR1 and easily one of the most complete virtual/simulation racing titles ever. So far VR2 is delivering the full meat VR quality PC users have been enjoying for years. Can’t wait to see what’s around the corner!

[Babadook7]

I really find using dual sense motion steering (plus R2 L2 for brake accel) is a wonderful way to control the cars in VR. Anyone else using that? I would get a driving wheel but the price for a good one is pretty steep and I’ve already blown enough money for now.

[Aloymetal]

That's exactly the way I play it, using the motion steering and I know it's not as good as a dedicated wheel but the feeling is damn close. I'm hooked and unable to go back to flat screen in gt7 after playing it in vr.

[UltimateOwnage]

Same here. I get lost in the turns and slopes with motion controls + VR.

[dmonee]

After playing Gran Turismo on PSVR 1, it was tough to go back to playing it on a regular tv. In my opinion, VR for a racing game, fixes the biggest issue with racing games and that is peripheral vision. You just have a much better feeling for your surroundings when racing in VR. I cant wait to play GT7 on the PSVR2.

[Aloymetal]

You're in for a treat! Also, try Kayak VR if you can. You won't regret it.

The Sony console VR dominance. Sony's flagship title is leading the way with Capcom backing them up.
