that's great! though hopefully they'll bring Fallout 4 VR to PSVR next since I think that'd complete the Bethesda VR game collection?

Not on ps4 VR they wont. That game pushes higher end cards on PC

Yeah, I'm not having this argument for the 50th time, lets just wait a week or two and we'll see.

People who think Bethesda games are going to be Xbox only are living in a fantasy world.

Ask me about my fanboy energy!
InXile released Frostpoint VR in July 2020, even though they were already bought by Microsoft. Microsoft does not ask its studios to abandon existing projects and contractual obligations.
Frostpoint Is A New Multiplayer AAA VR Shooter From inXile, Creators Of Wasteland And Mage's Tale
The renowned developers of classic game franchises like Wasteland and The Bard’s Tale, as well as VR dungeon crawler The Mage’s Tale, are unveiling their next VR-exclusive project: Frostpoint. This is a change of pace for inXile Entertainment, being a first-person multiplayer shooter instead of...

I'd be fine with it coming to PSVR2/PS5 instead then, though obviously that wouldn't be until after the Microsoft acquisition completes then but maybe MS will allow games like that to be ported since the Xbox Series consoles don't support VR?

Doom 3 is old ass hell though if this were the next Doom after Doom Eternal than yeah you guys might be onto something but this an old ass game that is already on PS4 now it just getting the VR version no big deal.

I don't get how the thread title is console warring. It's just factual isn't it? What am I missing here?

No but I'd imagine MS would switch from supporting psvr to actual vr on pc once the deal is done

Oh that makes more sense. What was it?
It was like MICROSOFT-OWNED ZENIMAX RELEASING DOOM 3 VR ON PS5

Already being on ps4 means absolutely nothing compared to VR. Completely different. More different than any other release version.
Its actually a bigger deal than eternal imo. I have doom 3 on pcvr and its 10x better in VR. Doom 3 is perfectly suited for VR. I play it more than eternal.

I see a lot of people wrongly comparing this to a fan made mod. This will have updated shaders and textures, a new VR specific UI, with information on your arm and weapons, full support for moves and aim controller. It includes all content. It also have shadows, despite some saying it does not, watch the trailer at 8s and 17s.

Hope it have baked support for PS5 and downsamples from 4k or better.

This could literally be the surprise of the year for psvr fans, especially those that haven't tried doom 3 in VR at all.
The fact that this is the first official VR port with an established development team makes it different than the ports/mods too, but along with AIM support and dynamic lighting and all the expansions? Could be a sleeper.

Game is going to be scary as fuck. The spiders, the flying babies, the scene when we are first introduced to the pinkie demon is made for vr! I can't wait to play the hell levels and see the Cyberdemon at the end. He's going to be one gigantic motherfucker!
This is going to be absolutely epic.

This is such a no brainer. It’s hard to believe we haven’t seen it come to psvr yet. Bioshock 1 is one of the most immersive flat screen games I’ve played, I can’t imagine how awesome it would be in vr

Pardon my ignorance but is Quest 2 not powerful enough to run Doom 3 or Doom VFR stand alone without a PC?

Gonna be so immersive using the Move controller to aim your flashlight

It can run Doom 3 pretty well and is already playable. I doubt Doom VFR would run outside of potato settings. Quest 2 is nowhere near as powerful as even the base ps4, and VFR on the base ps4 is pretty blurry.

And the preorder is up! I was thinking $20-40 so not bad. Impulse buy territory as someone commented.
Seems like the AIM controller is a touted feature in the description. That actually makes this really standout, that controller makes psvr shooters go from meh to incredible in some cases. Leaning around corners and shooting in the PS3 and Wii motion control days was garbage compared to VR.
From GameStop
Product Description
DOOM 3: VR Edition transforms id Software’s critically acclaimed action-horror shooter into a white-knuckle VR experience, immersing players in a terrifying world where Hell lurks around every corner.
THE COMPLETE DOOM 3 CAMPAIGN EXPERIENCE
DOOM 3: VR Edition includes over 15-hours of gritty sci-fi action-horror gameplay and includes both terrifying campaign expansions – Resurrection of Evil and The Lost Mission. The expansions dive deeper into the demonic invasion, ratcheting up the action and horror with new powerful weapons and dangerous enemies.
AIM CONTROLLER SUPPORT
Immerse yourself even deeper into the terrifying world of DOOM 3: VR Edition with the Aim Controller. Hold demons at bay by blind firing from cover and lean around corners to survey the area without exposing yourself to attack.

With readily accessible DUALSHOCK®4 controls and an ergonomic design, swap weapons and lob grenades easily while remaining comfortable so you can survive and play longer.
CLASSIC WEAPONS, IMPROVED LOOK AND SOUND
DOOM 3: VR Edition’s arsenal feels, looks and sounds better than ever. Every weapon is upgraded to support full VR movement, with improved visual effects and higher resolution detail. To complement their new look each weapon’s sound effects have been completely revamped to be louder and meaner.

this guy is already having a blast:
launches only next week. Shadow projections seem to be intact. I don't know if there's a trouble with turning or if he's just a pc guy not used to analog sticks...
though watching this guy playing is very annoying - in the middle of a tense shout-out he'll stop and say "oh thank you for your donation"...

they should have mentioned other enhancements: subpar resolution for a 2004 game, wrong scale, 2D cutscenes, no hand interactions...
but hey, good thing it is a passion project!

It's not at all supposedly, in fact the AIM controller supposedly adds an element to the gameplay. Either way, I thought you had a PCVR or Quest, you can play it there anyway.

Console release, but it does come with all the DLC and AIM controller support and probably the best sound I've heard for Doom 3. They remastered the effects and did a comparison, it's definitely improved over all other versions in sound.

Runs really good, apparently, the resolution is average at best, and not good when you consider it's an old game.
