@@schonkat1982 I like it, I know where he is looking, more action, the only trouble can be a bit shakey footage, but with racing it's okay, it's worse when you watch VR drifting, it can get so shakey you can't even look at it. But racing is fine, I understand your opinion though everyone is different.
Man this video is truly fantastic!! I've been watching low-key for over 2-3+ years. I'd think the fans would love VR Competitive GT7, As a weekly/semi weekly series! Just food for thought. I loved this one! 🔥❤️
Would be cool if they gave you the option to have radio communication with the pit crew, similar to the F1 games/ I racing. To be able to ask what position you’re in, tyre gradient, weather other card positions around you and lap times etc. This would be especially great when using vr, as you said at the start there’s no hud to feed you the info. Would need a mic/headset, but would also highly improve the experience.
The visibility was actually much worse in some ways, but better in others.... Firstly, when the track mists up in the dark due to rain hammering down and meeting a cold air front your actual visibility distance is massively shortened for actual detail, but, thanks to the fact that by the 1980's all cars had reasonably bright rear lights, you could still make out an "object" from a distance and typically your team would do it's best to let you know what car it is likely to be by tracking the other cars on the race in their own individual ways, or at times, by talking to other teams Despite it being a competition their is still a comradery between the mechanics and drivers, and if you ran a similar car to another team who needed a part and you had one sometimes teams would give each other parts to keep fellow teams in the race, it has made for interesting racing at times! At the end of the day, regardless of what team you race in you all want every driver to come home alive at the finish line, so theirs an element of unspoken outlook of drivers looking out for one another. These days the flags/track side lights are used to indicate when you should move to the side to let faster cars pass without incident, but that hasn't always been the case.
As someone who does not yet have the ability to get a PS5 and PSVr2, understand that you are absolutely feeding a new addiction. Please keep making these, I could watch all day! Man, that looked so fun...
Just keep your expectations in check. What you're seeing in these videos is actually better then what you see in the psvr2. The graphical fidelity is lower in the psvr2, plus there's the mura effect which is like having a faint see through veil over the lense that sometimes isn't noticeable, but sometimes it is. I'm not a hater, I have the psvr2 and I love it. Just don't want you to be disappointed if you do end up getting it. 🙂
@@fall-neckthetallneck2977 Appreciate it, but I doubt I will be. Racing in VR itself is something I've badly needed for ages, and I've waited for something just modern enough. This finally hits the levels; heck, I'm more worried how uncomfortable it'll be after hours of play because -there will be hours.- haha!
@Fall-Neck the Tallneck I don't actually agree with that. The experience is much better inside the VR headset than on the video. Yes, graphics quality is better on the video but that isn't the ultimate goal of VR. Immersion and the depth you get when actually using thr headset makes it better, there's no doubt avoid that.
@@Super_GT OH no, don't get me wrong. I'm not saying it's not immersive. What I'm seeing in a lot of places is people who havent used vr before expecting a crisp 4k display, because it's being advertised as 4k and getting disappointed by the visuals when they receive their unit. Immersion wise it's amazing though. I'll never forget going into vr mode for the first time during a race.
@@Kholdstare52 his comment isn’t so far removed from reality. Besides, there will come a point in your life when you don’t understand progress and get laughed at for it.
It would be cool if there were a "Co-op mode", kind of like "Don't Stop Talking or Everyone Explodes". Basically you pair up so one person is on the pit wall passing info to the driver, with all the telemetry and the driver is forced into this HUD-less mode. Would probably be a lot of work though.
@@Wogle Oh SNAP! YES. I would totally love that. Heck, I want to be the one that feeds the driver the info via radio! Especially with if Sophy is in the mix! I can see that being extremely intense!
I can't lie this is by far my favorite video from you as it just showcases all of your skills and you made it such an intense race. I also loved the commentary
People always say “in another 5 /10 years” haha how about now now now, don’t care about years away!! That’s too long ha.. Also mate u might not be around in 10 🤪
So crazy how good it looks. I've been enjoying it very much, but looking at it from someone else's point of view looks like I'm watching a real life onboard.
While it’s fuckin awesome, you gotta remember that inside the headset it’s not that clear. This is a 4k or 1080p screen share recording. Inside it’s still a little blurry. I think the psvr3 is gonna be the one that everything is super clear with 4k per eye screens.
guess is to help with the current sales and the PSVR2 launch onto the market .... the kit is good but would be fair reviewers perhaps advise about it ?
This is what I was looking for. The fact that Steve was actually fearful when he hydroplaned confirms to me that PSVR2 is the real deal. Looks like now I’ve got to blow $4k on a whole rig.
great thing about VR is you don't need crazy rig with monitor stands and stuff... I'm using normal wheel stand and office chair and it's fucking great... I will probably make wheel stand with aluminium profiles for more rigid structure but you don't need whole rig.
Just find a cheap carpenter if you're going for cheap and solid. LOL but I'd blow 4K, I'd imagine you can afford it if you went the ez route that quick.
Yeah, the night sky is beatiful in GT7, the only complaint I have is that the moon seems really small, and my grand parents being from Le Mans, I can guarantee this is not how small the moon looks there, no matter the season. It kinda threw me off, but apart from that everything is beautiful in this game (although Driveclub's rain seems much more realistic than the plastic balls GT7 throws at the windshield)
That's the constellation Scorpio you are seeing down the back straight. I'm impressed with Polyphony's dedication to realism. I don't know if that is the proper location for that constellation at this time (I don't know what time of the year it is in the game) but that is beautiful. However, I'm in doubt you can see that many stars being so close to a town. Still amazing though.
Fun fact. PSVR2 tracks your eye movements and decreases the resolution the areas you are not looking at. If you look at the side mirror it's usually blurry but when Steve looks at it it gets clear.
The draw distance in the mirrors is also quite scary as we can see stuff just disappearing like in the PS1-PS2 era... but I don't know if that's caused by the VR or if that's also in the regular game
That would push that game to the top for me. Already is my favorite racing sim on console and I love 24spa and Lemans. 24 at Nurburgring and a 24 at Leguna Seca would be perfect.
Can't wait for his videos on FM8's multi-player cause you just know that the lobbies will be filled with noobs thanks to game being available on GP day one lol
@@vyasrushi5177 Funny you said that when GT7 is bootleg iRacing. Tried to copy iRacings online framework but failed miserably in the physics engine. Ever car in GT7 behave like immovable concrete blocks except when you get occasionally pit maneuvered or punted from the back.
I revisited this video after 7 months, and buying a VR2. The joy Steve feels is similar to what i experience every day, still. I never race in flatscreen anymore. Sure, there are disadvantages for pure racers (lack of HUD details), but the immersion ... Blasting down pit straight at Spa at night, rain belting down, grandstand lights illuminating the cockpit of the 917K. Just wow.
Yup, totally agree. I had my headset to play other games, once I tried GT7 even on the controller I was shopping for a wheel and chair haha. Nearly a year now and all I play on my headset is GT7. 100s of hours with no hud. My only issue is I have to turn the hud on for some races, but since they added custom races I can just make fuel and tires nothing something I have to monitor
If only Sony would make this PC compatible for my PC sims too I'd buy one in a heartbeat... and PC sim racers would then also be tempted to buy a PS5. Sim racers like me who only bought a PS5 for GT7 in the first place don't want to buy a VR headset for just one game too. I bought an expensive Logitech G Pro steering wheel and that tempted me to get the PS5 in the first place! But at least I can use the G Pro/Pedals on both PC and PS5 systems for the price and capability. VR is the same kind of purchase as an expensive direct drive wheel.
@@olavofernandes7286 Insomniac is also first party and both Spiderman games came to PC. so did god of war and zero dawn if I remember correctly. As well as other exclusives im sure
That was seriously an amazing video. How far has VR come! It was so damn immersive. The scenes of stars on the straight is something I will probably dream about for days. C'est absolument beau! Hilarious ending too lol. Thanks for this Steve!
Having owned pc and playing acc, ac, iracing, to name a few, I'd never tried vr before. So I bought psvr2 with Gt7 in mind. The headset come a few days ago, quite easy to set up, 5 to 10 mins, headset looks, feels nice, very light on the head, and I will say this. It is a level of immersion I was not prepared for in any way. I simply did not understand this was possible. I figured it was some cool 3d experience me and my son could have a blast on now and then. I was dead, dead wrong.
@@nextgengaming7803 definitely. I still get excited now when I'm playing vr games. Sometimes I just like to stop and enjoy the scenery in games. Its amazing that you can almost escape to different worlds inside your own home. Its amazing tech.
@@donnajones1075 it was always something I talked about. I intended on grabbing the first vr years back. But one reason or another, I didn't. The possibilities here are endless, and I'm all for it. What other stuff have you played in vr?
so VR, specially driving, really is life changing? there's a VR place here close to where i live but it's a shitty standing still shooting game. it's cute like thor in the game but the "immersion" aint rly there
14:55 The way the light in the mirror shines differently depending on whether you are looking directly at it or not... I don't think even Digital Foundry has noticed this lol
The VR driving really gives you a sense of the Track. Like the Corkscrew on Mazda Laguna. I had no Idea it was so Steep, It's a 3 story drop.. in VR it's incredible. All the Tracks really come to life with the VR..
That shot of through the long straight at night, with Scorpio poking out over the trees, was immaculate. GT7 put in the work for a very bright and accurate star map
I already learned that if I can see a mist on Le Mans I switch to intermediates. Even if the rain is not there I'll lost way less time doing that than slicking on the puddles at 10km/h for the whole lap 🤣 That was fun to watch. Respect to all of the real drivers who drove on this track for all the years. True madmen! 🤪
Honestly, my favorite video of yours in a long time! Loved the immersion, dynamic whether, no HUD (or radio), variety of cars, not knowing the exact time to finish, ALL of it! Only one question/suggestion; Is it possible to add a mandatory fuel stop for all cars in at least your class? This was a great video.
Yeah, the VR truly highlights how insane the level of detail is in this game. In the Sauber Mercedes C9, the metal cockpit even reflects the colour of racing suit you’re wearing!
@super GT thanks so much for this video, it really is striking how much more engaged you are in the moment when you are in VR compared to almost a more laid back approach when you are flat gaming. Its fun to watch. I wonder if you could do a series where you see how high ranked you could get with a vr only account, vs. your main account.
Driving down the mulsanne stars while looking above at night while you are racing alone feels like a vibe before the end of the world.. the moment almost brought tears in my eyes
I managed a 5:32 lap in the Porsche 919 Hybrid yesterday, there is absolutely no way I could have done that without VR. The Ring is exceptional in VR with a DD wheel
This sold me on the PSVR2. Just got the PS5 + VR2 + Fanatec DD GT + Load cell + shifter just to play 1 single game in VR. Cannot wait to try it once all is delivered!
Do you think GT7 should add a race engineer? I think someone talking to you with no HUD would be insane for immersion. Maybe they can Just call lap, crashes, weather, position etc. Just not sure how they would handle pit stop strategy with tyres and fuel.... Maybe skip it? I love that player choice creates multiple strategies in GT7, if AI starts calling pit stops it'll be the end of this
I have a full rig as well with the VR to like how you can switch your position to make it exactly how your body is by looking down at the wheel or towards your belt buckle and holding the option button
Hey Steve, fellow video editor here who also has messed around with capturing GT7. The headset is HDR, so the captured video or the PS screen record are HDR as well. If you do a Color Space Transform to Rec709, your input space/gamma should be Rec.2020 / Rec.2100 ST2084. Output is Rec709 / Gamma 2.4 as usual. I am sure you encountered this, I just noticed watching the video that the sky is very blown out in certain parts of the video. I think if you play around with the color space transform, you can get a better looking result (if that's the issue--I just had a hunch). Loving all the content man, your races are so fun to watch.
I can hear the genuine excitement in your voice...good stuff man...if i could have afforded this and a ps5 , i would definitely have gotten this based on your reviews and vids
Guys keep something in mind before buying a PSVR2 : every video of gameplay you see is recorded 4K exactly like if you played ON SCREEN. In reality, psvr2 gives you a very lower resolution. Not even 1080p. Sony did a very bad advertising cause every player expects having a 4k gameplay. But it's truly not. But despite this fact, the gameplay is still amazing and truly immersive. Like, it's day and not compared to a flat screen. But remember you will never see what you are watching when streamers record their game.
I'd like to share two things I didn't know about VR until yesterday, when I first tried my own. First, the vision you have is not quite like the one we see in the video. That one looks like the one when you're playing in a flat screen, but the one you have when driving with the VR is literally the same as if you were inside the car on the drivers seat. The notion of the space around you changes dramatically in a good way and everything is 3D. Second, the resolution is not like the one in the video as well. Unfortunately it is much lower. I'd say that if we have 4k on TVs, what we have in the VR is something about 720p. It's that different. Don't expect the same graphics quality you have on the TV. My expectations were too high before playing it for the first time and I kinda got a little disappointed for a while, but I think I will just get used to it. Keep in mind that the resolution is going to look very worse on the VR in case you are thinking about getting one and that's because of hardware limitations. Just sharing something I'd like to know before.
@@leebeeskee mate did you honestly read his comment and think he was talking about the psvr1? Daniel is right, resolution in VR is much, much lower than on a 4K tv and the image really does look like a 720p video. I was pretty disappointed myself upon putting it on and thought my unit might be faulty seeing as all the reviewers were going on about how the image in the psvr2 headset was "crystal clear". Sad truth is any gameplay video you're watching on your smartphone or tv is not an accurate reflection of what it looks like inside the headset, wish more reviewers had pointed this out as I would have thought twice before picking one up.
I'm sorry, but it seems you are extremely ignorant of how current technology works. I mean, OF COURSE it's not going to look like a high resolution phone or computer screen. You are looking at a small 4k screen from a few cm away through something comparable to a magnifying lens. Try doing that to any normal 4k display today and you get to see a terribly low resolution. Did you >>really
@@ZappBrannigan88 I agree 100% with you. The reviewers don’t talk about the difference in the resolution and how the overall quality and details had to be lowered in order for GT7 to run smoothly. We are so used to the beautiful graphics, specially on the PS5. When we first try the Vr2, there’s no way to not feel the difference.
Thank you for sharing more VR GT7 experience with us! I'm not sure when I'll be able to experience VR like this myself, so it makes me happy when you upload VR videos.
don't stop the VR content, this is so good. would like more car variety tho.
Yeah I agree. Maybe some of those cars that no one gets to drive IRL.
Too much movement, hard to watch
Nice to see something different and I'm sure the different cars will come with the weekly races, no?
@@schonkat1982 I like it, I know where he is looking, more action, the only trouble can be a bit shakey footage, but with racing it's okay, it's worse when you watch VR drifting, it can get so shakey you can't even look at it. But racing is fine, I understand your opinion though everyone is different.

Looking to buy my first kart for racing and wondering what I would need to buy to start racing, do you have any recommendations?
The fact that they raced with this visibility in real life is incredible
I'd think it would be a bit easier in real life at night because in the game the AI's headlights don't do anything but yeah
@@sahmirlareum2718 1980's headlights weren't that great either.

I think irl human eyes will adjust even more when it is this dark, that the visiblility should be slightly better than that of VR.

Such a breathtaking view throughout the Mulsanne straight!
The VR and commentary feels like the perfect evolution of your content ngl, its even more immersive and still has that SuperGT feel
That was seriously an amazing video. How far has VR come! It was so damn immersive. The scenes of stars on the straight is something I will probably dream about for days. C'est absolument beau! Hilarious ending too lol. Thanks for this Steve!
Having owned pc and playing acc, ac, iracing, to name a few, I'd never tried vr before. So I bought psvr2 with Gt7 in mind. The headset come a few days ago, quite easy to set up, 5 to 10 mins, headset looks, feels nice, very light on the head, and I will say this. It is a level of immersion I was not prepared for in any way. I simply did not understand this was possible. I figured it was some cool 3d experience me and my son could have a blast on now and then. I was dead, dead wrong.
Its amazing isnt it. Vr is so much fun. It takes games to a whole new level. It's hard to go back to flat screen games afterwards.
@@donnajones1075 I just didn't know. I had absolutely no clue, I've actually been buzzing from it all week telling my buddies how impressive it was.
@@nextgengaming7803 definitely. I still get excited now when I'm playing vr games. Sometimes I just like to stop and enjoy the scenery in games. Its amazing that you can almost escape to different worlds inside your own home. Its amazing tech.
@@donnajones1075 it was always something I talked about. I intended on grabbing the first vr years back. But one reason or another, I didn't. The possibilities here are endless, and I'm all for it. What other stuff have you played in vr?
so VR, specially driving, really is life changing?
there's a VR place here close to where i live but it's a shitty standing still shooting game. it's cute like thor in the game but the "immersion" aint rly there
That actually looked amazing crazy how psvr2 has just brought gt7 to a whole new level.
Your on-the-spot self commentary is impeccable. More of this yeah.
You need to do 200 Laps of the Nürburgring Nordschleife in VR
200 laps??
14:55 The way the light in the mirror shines differently depending on whether you are looking directly at it or not... I don't think even Digital Foundry has noticed this lol
They have, John made a tweet about it and that due to the HDR it really blinds the driver. It feels incredible.
Super GT has been on fire with the uploads this past weeks👍👍👍
The VR driving really gives you a sense of the Track.
Like the Corkscrew on Mazda Laguna.
I had no Idea it was so Steep, It's a 3 story drop.. in VR it's incredible.
All the Tracks really come to life with the VR..
That shot of through the long straight at night, with Scorpio poking out over the trees, was immaculate. GT7 put in the work for a very bright and accurate star map
VR content is great GT. Looking forward for them to add a stabilizer for VR capture like they do on PC
This is an awesome video, this VR is going to add so much content to watch i can't wait
Good content mate, do more VR videos like this!
That race was incredible Steve!! Please do more like this!
MORE VR content. This was EPIC
That was awesome. The four way battle down Mulsanne at night was intense. I was getting nervous just watching!
I already learned that if I can see a mist on Le Mans I switch to intermediates. Even if the rain is not there I'll lost way less time doing that than slicking on the puddles at 10km/h for the whole lap 🤣
That was fun to watch. Respect to all of the real drivers who drove on this track for all the years. True madmen! 🤪
This is Incredible!!! I was at the edge of my seat the entire night section! 🤯🤯
a full vr race of this would be sick, with multiple different povs, i would pay to see that happens
Honestly, my favorite video of yours in a long time! Loved the immersion, dynamic whether, no HUD (or radio), variety of cars, not knowing the exact time to finish, ALL of it! Only one question/suggestion; Is it possible to add a mandatory fuel stop for all cars in at least your class?
This was a great video.
I like how the headlights from the cars behind you light up the interior of your car. The immersion is real!
Yeah, the VR truly highlights how insane the level of detail is in this game. In the Sauber Mercedes C9, the metal cockpit even reflects the colour of racing suit you’re wearing!
@super GT thanks so much for this video, it really is striking how much more engaged you are in the moment when you are in VR compared to almost a more laid back approach when you are flat gaming. Its fun to watch. I wonder if you could do a series where you see how high ranked you could get with a vr only account, vs. your main account.
This would be a great idea
Driving down the mulsanne stars while looking above at night while you are racing alone feels like a vibe before the end of the world.. the moment almost brought tears in my eyes
The rain section was crazy! Almost as crazy as that time you called Kirby a Pokemon
The lighting in the room is 🔥
Just WOW!!! That was a terrific video, and gorgeous also. Thanks for sharing.
youre right. that was extremely immersive to watch. we need you to do stream doing the real 24 hour le mans. that would be insane
What an awesome video! Looking forward to more VR content. 🙏🏾
I LOVED THIS ♥ pls do more, this is perfect
Steve sounds a lot like Tom Scott when amazed with the immersion as he passes through the grandstands.
As breathtaking as this is to watch, I can only imagine how incredible it must be to actual be in it. Insane.
Very incredible.. best experience in gaming so far
So fun to look at I can imagine playing! I can already hear the Nürburgring calling your name 😎
I managed a 5:32 lap in the Porsche 919 Hybrid yesterday, there is absolutely no way I could have done that without VR. The Ring is exceptional in VR with a DD wheel
This looks insane, I will give it a go tomorrow.
Dude this was amazing!!!! When you begin the attack at 10:10 through the crowd I said “give the people a show!” Great content.
Kireth reckons if you change to 720p while watching someone do VR, it's as close to what they're seeing graphically.
This sold me on the PSVR2. Just got the PS5 + VR2 + Fanatec DD GT + Load cell + shifter just to play 1 single game in VR. Cannot wait to try it once all is delivered!
If you are familiar with vr and got vr legs and temper your expectations you'll have a blast. Its not for everyone though.
so how do you like it?
Do you think GT7 should add a race engineer? I think someone talking to you with no HUD would be insane for immersion. Maybe they can Just call lap, crashes, weather, position etc. Just not sure how they would handle pit stop strategy with tyres and fuel.... Maybe skip it? I love that player choice creates multiple strategies in GT7, if AI starts calling pit stops it'll be the end of this
hello viewer
Super GT here
Hello
I think I might of found the most immersive experience on gran tourism 7
I have a full rig as well with the VR to like how you can switch your position to make it exactly how your body is by looking down at the wheel or towards your belt buckle and holding the option button
My new favorite video from you! No cuts, playing in VR with a really nice day/night setting. 👌
That looked INTENSE! omg I havent been on gt7 ina while because of work but with the new track and now VR ?!! YES I NEEED THISSS
This genuinely got my heart pumping, absolutely incredible. Gotta save up for a VR2 now.
This has done more to make me want a VR rig than anything I have ever seen. That darkness is terrifying at that speed, especially in traffic.
Hey Steve, fellow video editor here who also has messed around with capturing GT7. The headset is HDR, so the captured video or the PS screen record are HDR as well. If you do a Color Space Transform to Rec709, your input space/gamma should be Rec.2020 / Rec.2100 ST2084. Output is Rec709 / Gamma 2.4 as usual. I am sure you encountered this, I just noticed watching the video that the sky is very blown out in certain parts of the video. I think if you play around with the color space transform, you can get a better looking result (if that's the issue--I just had a hunch). Loving all the content man, your races are so fun to watch.
Man PS5VR is reallly well done. Its the only VR content i cant watch and not get a headache from. Super cool video man!
This setup of track/time/weather needs to become the new daily race standard.
Description says Forza motorsport, surely that's not the most realistic Gran Turismo experience... ;)
You can see the foveated rendering in action. It's surprising how it reacts quickly to where you can tell he's looking.
More of these please Steve. That was absolutely immense. 👌🏻
I can hear the genuine excitement in your voice...good stuff man...if i could have afforded this and a ps5 , i would definitely have gotten this based on your reviews and vids
Most insane race simulation I have ever seen. Great setup !!! Mind blowing
Guys keep something in mind before buying a PSVR2 : every video of gameplay you see is recorded 4K exactly like if you played ON SCREEN. In reality, psvr2 gives you a very lower resolution. Not even 1080p. Sony did a very bad advertising cause every player expects having a 4k gameplay. But it's truly not.
But despite this fact, the gameplay is still amazing and truly immersive. Like, it's day and not compared to a flat screen. But remember you will never see what you are watching when streamers record their game.
I'd like to share two things I didn't know about VR until yesterday, when I first tried my own.
First, the vision you have is not quite like the one we see in the video. That one looks like the one when you're playing in a flat screen, but the one you have when driving with the VR is literally the same as if you were inside the car on the drivers seat. The notion of the space around you changes dramatically in a good way and everything is 3D.
Second, the resolution is not like the one in the video as well. Unfortunately it is much lower. I'd say that if we have 4k on TVs, what we have in the VR is something about 720p. It's that different. Don't expect the same graphics quality you have on the TV.
My expectations were too high before playing it for the first time and I kinda got a little disappointed for a while, but I think I will just get used to it. Keep in mind that the resolution is going to look very worse on the VR in case you are thinking about getting one and that's because of hardware limitations.
Just sharing something I'd like to know before.
I believe you but I haven't seen anyone else claim that it's THAT much different. Were you on PSVR 2 or 1?
@@leebeeskee mate did you honestly read his comment and think he was talking about the psvr1? Daniel is right, resolution in VR is much, much lower than on a 4K tv and the image really does look like a 720p video. I was pretty disappointed myself upon putting it on and thought my unit might be faulty seeing as all the reviewers were going on about how the image in the psvr2 headset was "crystal clear". Sad truth is any gameplay video you're watching on your smartphone or tv is not an accurate reflection of what it looks like inside the headset, wish more reviewers had pointed this out as I would have thought twice before picking one up.
I'm sorry, but it seems you are extremely ignorant of how current technology works. I mean, OF COURSE it's not going to look like a high resolution phone or computer screen. You are looking at a small 4k screen from a few cm away through something comparable to a magnifying lens. Try doing that to any normal 4k display today and you get to see a terribly low resolution. Did you >>really
@@leebeeskee I was really talking about the ps vr2
@@ZappBrannigan88 I agree 100% with you. The reviewers don’t talk about the difference in the resolution and how the overall quality and details had to be lowered in order for GT7 to run smoothly. We are so used to the beautiful graphics, specially on the PS5. When we first try the Vr2, there’s no way to not feel the difference.
That description lol
I guess the motion sickness from VR makes you confuse GT7 with FM7 lol
This is just wow. Looks absolutely beautiful so immersive. ❤
Thank you for sharing more VR GT7 experience with us! I'm not sure when I'll be able to experience VR like this myself, so it makes me happy when you upload VR videos.
The lighting at night looks so realistic
From seeing you play Forza 7 on Xbox to this absolute banger video!! What a journey mate~~ Absolutely love it
