It’s almost here! The press and some online personalities have already received their PSVR hardware and are currently using it. Though we’ll have to wait for the embargo to go up before we get any impressions or reviews of the headset. I don’t have one preordered myself since I figured I’d wait a bit after launch. Not to mention with Mafia and Rise of the Tomb Raider coming out soon I’ll be preoccupied with those. Granted I’m curious how well the theater mode for the headset will look.

Ubisoft has talked about the new development philosophy they’re taking with Assassin’s Creed and Far Cry. I’m really hoping they’re able to release one of those franchises in 2017, preferably Assassin’s Creed. It’s really strange not having a new entry this year.

PSX was also announced for early December in Anaheim CA. While I’d like to go, I did just go on a vacation to Disneyland only two weeks back so I’m not sure about spending that money currently. Especially since I’ll be getting the PSVR and a Pro so I’d rather do that, though I will of course watch it streamed.

What about you? Are you going to PSX this year? Let us know in the comments below!
