We'll see. I'm pessimistic and skeptical by nature.
I like it a lotHow's driveclub VR?
The headset isn't 720P it's 1080P. 980 x 1080 per eye.
I've played games in Cinema mode on the PSVR and while it is obviously lower quality than the TV, it's not that bad and with this update seemingly improving the cinenmatic mode quality that's great. Plus I'm also using a Pro.
Ns would be like "day 1"
You're about to get negged from the Ginyu Force. Get your Flame Shield ready!
Man idk if it's because I haven't tried the Playroom in such a while but man the added clarity from that game on the Pro is really obvious. On the reg PS4 when you first start and that floating bot is on your right it's kind of blurry/pixelated yet on the pro it's much sharper and less pixelated. Things look clearer. Feels like you're at proper HD pretty much. I also have the beta update(joined a sharing/waiting list from Gaf). I started up Persona 5 since that's a text heavy game. Looks clearer I'd say but I haven't used cinema mode in a while but it was decent enough to where I didn't mind playing like that for a while.

Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin pre-orders include original Psychonauts
Pre-orders for the PlayStation VR-exclusive Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin include the original Psychonauts, which is currently available as a PlayStation 2-on-PlayStation 4 title, developer Double Fine Productions announced.
While Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin follows the story of the original game, there is no need to know what happened in the first game in order to enjoy the virtual reality entry, according to Double Fine. However, there are some parts of the story that will make more sense if you played the original.
In addition to the original Psychonauts, PlayStation Plus subscribers will also receive an additional 10 percent off of Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin‘s full price of $19.99.
Psychonauts in the Rhombus of Ruin will launch for PlayStation VR on February 21. Watch the launch trailer below.

Sony files patent for Vive-style PSVR tracking device
It looks like PSVR could become even more immersive.
HTC's current virtual reality tech. Functioning as an external projector, the device would use lights and mirrors to map the player's real world movements straight into PSVR. While Sony's VR offering currently uses a camera to detect light from the player's headset, the existing tracking limits users to an incredibly small space. With light often interfering with the PS4's camera, if this new tech makes it to production it could not only give gamers more mobility but also potentially provide a more accurate and immersive PSVR experience.
While merely filing a patent doesn't guarantee that the tech will ever see the light of day, Sony investing in a more immersive PSVR experience makes a lot of sense. Being able to physically walk around a virtual world does wonders for creating a feeling of presence and if it makes it to market, this new device could help PSVR stand toe-to-toe with the more technically accomplished Vive.
Interestingly, the patent states that the tracking device is wireless, suggesting it would connect to a PS4 through either Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. With the competition already announcing wireless peripherals of their own, it's no surprise that Sony may be following in their footsteps.The patent gives no indication, however, whether the tracker would be an add-on for the existing headset or incorporated as a part of a PSVR successor.
PSVR was released last October. Since then, Sony has kept quiet about the tech, omitting sales numbers from end of year press releases and failing to announce many new titles for the platform at its last conference. Yet with more bundles hitting the shelves and Sony's recently released PS4 Pro offering a noticeable bump in VR performance, these patents help suggest that the company's not done with VR just yet.

Some Dirt Rally VR impressions
The back of the car isn't rendered?
I actually look back every now and then when playing drive club so that's kind of disappointing to hear.
