Yeah I remember I upset a lot of people when I pointed out that Sony has not once talked about bc for the vr1 and that the controller and tracking would require work to.simply port over so don't expect it. But after the ps5 got full ps4 bc it was something that seemed like a possibility to people despite never being uttered

I do hope that some psvr1 games can be ported to the psvr2. Games like ironman, blood and truth, astrobot and a few more. I'm hoping people don't cry about the prices of those ports if developers have to spend months or over a year porting them because I can see sony not wanting to bother paying devs to port games because of backlash. I would definitely like a proper remake of blood and truth with a bit more freedom and added content for psvr2. I cant wait for psvr2 and I'm hoping firewall zero 2 is amazing

Not quite the same thing. Im simply talking about bc as in the way PS5 can play PS4 games and often improved at the same time. A PSVR game getting a performance boost from being played not only on a 5 but the VR2. Would have been a really nice bonus.

Apologies, I didn't realise you were speaking specifically about BC

Of course, its just a matter of convenience. Sony made it convenient to play 4 games on a 5 so I figured they'd extend that to VR as well. Like I said, not a deal breaker.

You're right it's not but it would be nice to play games like skyrim with proper controllers.

Plus having to have the old breakout box on my TV is a inconvenience as my TV is hdmi 2.1 and the breakout box is 2.0 meaning I can't get 4k 120 fps modes on supported games unless I bypass it.

And storing two headsets under my TV is a bit annoying

The homebrew scene has the psvr1 working with pc vr so anything is possible

What Sony bend the knee? They can't stop developers from releasing free updates. And even if it is not free, do you expect developers to work for free? Like you said they are not big enough, or are you one of those entitled gamers that think everything should be free and all games should be day one on GamePass?

"They can't stop developers from releasing free updates"
free update no they can't.
Free game? yes, cause don't forget there's no Bc compatibility for PSVR games, meaning that an upgrade is a new PS5 game.

" do you expect developers to work for free?"
Last I checked dev are paid by salary and I'm pretty sure that a publisher would have preferred to keep selling old PS4 games with patches instead of re submitting a complete new game for Ps5, fracturing the player base for multiplayer games, etc., etc.

I fail to see your point with day 1 Gamepass
But here is what I expect
I expect to not repay my music library when I change phone
I expect that my Steams (or other launchers) games are still playable when I change computers or OS
I expect that my digital movie will still work when I change PC/ TV/ keyboard, etc.

RE7 was the big one that came to mind. Was hoping to be able to play that and then hop into RE8. I have the PSVR 1 all boxed up and there’s no way I’m hooking that all up again.

Lol, I mean wouldn’t that be something? I’m not gonna lie, I’d probably break down for RE7.
