I'll be picking up a VR this week so this will be fun to use with it. i like the UI-less interface

I am super curious to try this (esp with rally being my favorite racing), but can't justify investing in all the hardware necessary.

I already have the PSVR and can not wait to try GTS, although of course it will be limited on many aspects 
At the end of the video the replay will run in cinema mode 2D.
Hopefully it can also be seen in some VR mode like passenger view, driver view or some spectator mode.

I'm hoping for a 3d showroom mode where you can look through the interior and stuffI already have the PSVR and can not wait to try GTS, although of course it will be limited on many aspects

I really cant wait to drive a hellcat on the ring in VR (if the ring exists in VR mode..) 
But its really sad that the VR mode is that limited, i surely would play the game pretty much only in VR, its just sooo different when you see the game world in VR than looking to a flat screen.
From the footage it seems that there are not much jaggies, looks definitly better than Dirt Rally. (Which is still a great experience in VR) 👍
Edit:
Didnt know the game already ran with more opponents?! Meh, some fps drops really wouldnt bother me

This looks super lame to me, the floaty car, the grass slowing you down, the bounce off barriers, it's so un lifelike, almost zero visible vibrations. When you see what PC2 looks like with VR mode, it's the complete antithesis (i know it's PC to PS4, but still)

You dont see vibrations because the players view isnt connected to the car but to the track, so when the car bumps you see the interior moving but your view stays straight.
I dont know if thats an option or the only way PD have made it but Dirt Rally let you choose a view connected to the car or the GT like variant. Later one helps for people who get motion sickness but really lacks immersion.
I hope GTS will let you choose a car connected view like Dirt rally (or PCars in your example).
Also it seems the Focus has TC on and therefor it looks rather lame.

I have seen something like that in some video or images from the VR mode of GTS.
Now I can not find it and I do not remember the source unfortunately
In VR the framerate is everything and Sony don't allow vr games that not meet at least 60 fps. Going under 60fps would create sickness.Didnt know the game already ran with more opponents?! Meh, some fps drops really wouldnt bother me
Keep in mind that it has to render 2 times the game (a screen for the eye with different perspectives) at at least 60fps and with good resolution.
With the actual hardware they already doing miracles in so many games:tup:
It would also please me to have more opponents, but already try GT in VR is a dream come true
That will be a great problem for those who suffer from motion sickness
However, Pcars 2 will be my main game for VR. Actually i'm enjoy a lot the first game in VR and can't wait for the new one.
I'm playing on PC with the PSVR emulated as Vive with trinus
I just hope to see in 2 some improvements like rain, really bad to see with that 2D effect, better driver animations and the LOD from the cockpit that renders only half of the car and looking behind there are completely missing 3D elements that breaking the immersion.

Ahh passenger view. Me want.I already have the PSVR and can not wait to try GTS, although of course it will be limited on many aspects

And the VR showroom to look around and in a car takes place in a black room. I believe the video was posted by a Japanese channel.
With an entirely VR centric film being directed by Steven Spielberg, I see VR becoming even more of a mainstream topic in the near future.

It's a decent priced console for the graphics you get, with the cheapest VR headset, with a game which, if it's like previous ones in the series, is the most fun to play/drive ever, running at a good resolution, possibly at 60fps?, like the guy up there said Sony only allows games that do, and you're still complaining? At the first generation of consoles that can do that? It looks pretty impressive to me. Maybe it's not worth it, but for the price, it's definitely the best you'll get. And if you want better, it'll cost a lot more.
Maybe it could be possible, if only for duels.

It looks to me it will be for offline only. I say that with limited (LIMITED!) technical knowledge.

Why do all the cars sound like electric cars now? We've gone from complaining about the engine noise to not having any engine noise and just whining gearboxes and tire screeching. PD really don't seem to be able to find a clue when it comes to the sound side of GT.

Found it! @1:40
I could spend dozens of hours only here to see all the details of the cars, not counting those that I'll spend into photo mode

The rest may not matter to you but it does to me and I presume others. A crisp and clear 1080p/60fps is the minimum standard for me these days. Lots of people are rocking 4k these days, others as much as 144 fps, so to come down to the resolution of VR is not going to float everyone's boat, regardless of being able to move your head around or not.

My first intro to PSVR and racing was Driveclub VR and I was blown away. Great immersive experience. Yes downgraded graphics but absolutely acceptable for me. Despite the hardware PSVR did not change I have higher expectations for GT Sport VR Mode. I hope/expect more clean, crisp, bright graphics in VR. Don't know if that is realistic and "fair" of me to push the bar?
Also I hope that the VR mode is more then only the VR race itself. Again (and not for comparison reasons between DCVR and GTS-VR mode) Driveclub VR is more then only the race in VR. Also the menus, free roam in showroom mode is in VR. So great! That was a disappointment for me in Dirt Rally VR --> Everything in 2D and that swap to VR for the race. But then the VR mode in DIRT Rally is maybe because of the Rally nature more immersive then DCVR.
In a nutshell: also hyped for GT Sport VR (mode)

I think you have to experience VR (properly) for yourself to understand the ,,graphics dont matter as much as the immersion of VR“. Its not only ,,moving your head“ but seeing everything in 3D as your eyes would that gets you into the game world.
