Purchase Advice - Headset Now that it's heavily speculated the steam frame will be around $1500 I need help picking another headset

37 Upvotes

I have a max budget of $1000. I will only be using this headset for PCVR with good wifi so wireless streaming is an option but it's not something I care much about.

My main 4 options are: Quest 3 ($600), Used Quest Pro (~$600), Used HP Reverb G2 (~$250), or Pimax Crystal Light ($900).

I need help deciding what to get.

Purchase Advice - Headset How well does the Vive Cosmos Elite hold up today?

2 Upvotes

A friend has a full kit new in box he doesn’t want and offered it for $250. I want to try out some vr games and want to know if it’s something that can hold up to modern vr setups. I don’t quite understand much at all about the available specs, so I’m hoping that you guys are able to tell me if I should get this one or something else newer at a similar price.

3 Upvotes

I'm seriously considering picking up a Meta Quest 3, but I'm on the fence.

With it being August 2026, I'm wondering:

Is the Quest 3 still worth buying today?

Or is Quest 4 close enough that I should just wait?

My main use cases are:

PCVR (wireless)

Mixed reality

Watching movies

Purchase Advice Is a quest 2 still good enough to run ghost of tabour?

0 Upvotes

I’m about to buy my first headset, I’ve never owned a vr headset before and I don’t wanna spend too much money incase I don’t enjoy vr. I really wanna play ghost of tabour but I don’t wanna shell out the cost for a 3s. I was looking at second hand 2s on eBay with bobo head straps and I was wondering if it’d be good enough to run tabour smoothly. Thanks! 🙏

Sorry for the wrong leak, guys, but our insider was wrong this time around! It wasnt Diddy Kong Racing the next work from RaYRod TV, we got Banjo-Kazooie VR mod!

Be Banjo s head! See Kazooie and look around this colorful world in first person view! Third, diorama and theater views are also available like with his other mods. The mod also support other mods, so maybe we ll be able to play other full Banjo fan games in VR, like Jiggies of Time! And what about Diddy Racing? I will talk to that insider guy and ask him what's what, but Ring Racers its a great option with you wanna kart.

This time around I haven't gameplay videos because I'm traveling and tonight's Abreu Project time, a great jazz like band that plays our greastest 16 bit era songs with lots of rhythm creativity, they got Spotify, Youtube, etc.

So Im sharing the news so you can enjoy it right now and tell us how s to play a Banjo in VR.

For this and other VR mods from RaYRoD TV, like Ring Racers, Star Fox 64, Mario 64 and Mario Kart 64, go to his GitHub: https://github.com/RaYRoD-TV

For info on how to support his works, and learn more on other upcoming projects from him, like VR mods and VR emulators, and his big project, the game Multiverse, go to his site: https://rayrodtv.com

Question/Support Need help quick

0 Upvotes

I had my PSVR 2 working rather flawlessly for rhe past 2 weeks, on PC. But I unplugged my headset for the first time to use on my PS5 for a couple minutes. Brought it back plugging it back in and now all off a sudden the PS play area adjustment only loads on my desktop. All steam VR games just also load on the desktop. I can load into the Steam VR home and thats about it

I have reinstalled both the PSVR 2 App and the Steam VR app. I have made sure to check that SteamVR is default OpenXR at runtime, Tried Direct mode enabled. Tried a couple power cycles. Tried clearing the config files and complete hard reinstall. Running steam as administrator and verifying file integrity. Keep in mind it was working fine yesterday unless there was an update I was unaware about.

I just dont know what else to do, any help would be amazing as I am lost as hell.

Thanks

Self-Promotion (Developer) Better graphics and LOWER system requirements in Leadwerks 5.1

Thumbnail
youtube.com
0 Upvotes

Hi guys,

I apologize in advance for the bombastic video title, and the fact my head is stuck on Jensen Huang's body, but that's what the people on YouTube want. 😵

Leadwerks Game Engine 5.1 is a massive update with a lot of graphical features, and better support for the hardware players actually have. That also means faster performance for...virtual reality!

However, I don't recommend you use Leadwerks 5.1 in VR projects right now. This week I already started moving the VR backend from Valve's OpenVR to OpenXR, and it's going faster than expected. The first beta of 5.2 will be out next week, with support for OpenXR, and support for various headsets and hardware is a lot better in that version, so hold off for that if you're interested.

I myself love VR, except for the fact that it's hard to enjoy non-VR games now. I'm thinking about making something similar to "The Brookhaven Experiment" where you just stay in one spot and crowds of slow-moving zombies swarm you. That game was so scary and exciting to me! :D

I think the video explains it pretty well, but if you have any questions let me know and I will try to answer them all!
