I love PSVR. The exclusives are excellent, as is the ability to play PlayStation games on a giant floating virtual screen. But I will admit, the hardware can’t compete in the 2022 VR space. Against tech from Meta and HTC, it’s the perfect time for PlayStation VR 2 to launch. And while we won’t see it until sometime early next year, we can start securing our spot right now (as long as we’re chosen).
What’s new with PS VR2?
Sony’s PS VR2 is a considerable upgrade from the original PlayStation VR. The new headset bumps the resolution from 960 x 1080 to 2000 x 2040 (4K), supports HDR, and increases the field of view from 100˚ to 110˚. It also supports eye tracking for realistic eye movements, and Tempest 3D audio. Its inside-out tracking system eliminates the need for a camera, which should make setup so much easier.
Of course, the even bigger upgrade is to the controllers. While PS VR used 2010's PlayStation Move controllers, PS VR2's controllers are designed for VR, packing finger-touch detection, adaptive triggers, haptic feedback, and joysticks (thank god) into a design familiar to anyone who has used a modern VR system.
It won’t come cheap, though. The system launches at $550, and requires a PS5 to use. All in, that’s $950 or $1,050 to enjoy the latest from Sony’s VR offerings. There’s no doubt the PS VR2 is a worthy upgrade over the original, but it’s a pricey one at that. As someone that doesn’t have a PS5 yet, the sheer cost to entry for PS VR2 is a little intimidating. At least getting in line to pre-order one is free, though.

How to pre-order PS VR2
Right now, only Sony is running pre-orders for PS VR2, so you won’t be able to secure one at a retail location. In addition, the pre-orders are only for those who register with Sony. You can’t roll up to the PlayStation store’s website and expect to pre-order the system, so if you’re interested, register ASAP.
To register for PS VR2 pre-order, go to the official PlayStation VR2 website here, and click “Register to pre-order.” Sign in with your PSN account (I had to complete a CAPTCHA puzzle to continue), then click “Register Now.” Once registered, all you need to do is wait. If you’re selected, you’ll receive an email from PlayStation with instructions on how to pre-order your PS VR2.

As we’ve written about in the past, not only can ceiling fans keep your home cooler in the summer— with or without air conditioning —but they can also help your home stay warm and toasty in colder weather. 02:15 How to Steam an Egg Wednesday 11:19AM But when it comes to choosing a ceiling fan, it’s not solely a matter of finding one to match your decor: You should also consider the room’s square footage in order to ensure that the fan is able to get the job done.

I recently watched “ the greatest film of all time ,” and the most boring one. In retrospect, the title alone should have been a sufficient warning: Jeanne Dielman, 23 Quai du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles . Alas, I’m old enough to be a bit nostalgic about massive telephone address books. And massive it is. Clocking over 200 minutes, Chantal Akerman's 1975 dreary drama follows three days in the monotonous routine of Jeanne, a widow, a mother, and a prostitute. I watched Jeanne’s autopilot existence, until, staring at her back as she washes dishes, I decided to fast-forward a couple of minutes, only to discover she was still at it. And Jeanne is equally thorough when she’s busy baking, cleaning, folding laundry, or shining her son’s shoes. She speaks so scarcely and mechanically, that it’s impossible to detect any emotion or volition beyond her carefully controlled chores . Watching Jeanne Dielman is what the word “painstaking” was invented for. Chantal...
Photo : Pixel-Shot ( Shutterstock ) This game is nearly identical to the “drink every time” game above, but adjusted for shots, so it’s for those trying to party a little harder. The idea is to make a list of shot-worthy occurrences—like “a coach yells at a referee” or “something goes wrong during the halftime show”—and then take a shot whenever they happen. If the promise of regular shots isn’t enough for you, we have another twist for you: The “1, 2, 3" rule. The first time something from your shot list happens, you take one shot. The second time it occurs, take two. The third, three...and then hopefully you don’t push your health and safety past that point. On the other hand, you can always choose to sip instead of taking a full shot. Again, none of these party games have to involve alcohol. But they definitely can if you want them to. Super Bowl LVII is on Sunday, Feb. 12, 2023. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 p.m. E T /3:30 p.m. P T.
