Nope.
Only lights are the ones to indicate player number below the touch pad, the light around the touch pad, and the mic mute when pressed.

Who thinks they’ll actually bother to play Astro Playroom?
Looks a bit too kiddefied for me.

It will be great fun.
Astrobot on VR is probably one of the best platformers of recent years.

More Demon's Souls.
Looks good. I hope you like dying. A lot.
PS5 is the same size as an OG Xbox One?
Some optimistic measuring going on there. Take a gander at any side-by-side pics. They aren't even remotely the same size.

They ain't, the ps5 is a couple inches longer/taller

100% I will. And if I'm showing off the haptic controller features to a mate it'll be perfect for that.
My first experience of PSVR was astro.
I will because it's built in and is a good way to experience all the features of the controller. I'm not sure if I should buy a DS4 for my PS4 games or just hope they work ok with the 5.

Looks ruddy amazing. The sound and weight to all the movement is perfect. Fingers crossed we will get some sort of successor to bloodborne on the PS5 at some point.
DF recommends that you play AstroBot if nothing more than to learn all the different uses of the controller. Also adding that it's a pretty great game in its own right. Yeah, I'll definitely be playing it.
Jesus Bluepoint what did you do? Demon's Souls looks incredible! If the haptic feedback works as well in this as Astrobot then it's going to feel something else when you're playing it. Tower Knight will wreck your wrists. Loved the magic effects too.

I think the DS will work with ps4 games, it's just for the best experience ps4 games should be played with the DS4.
Then if some are a little off Sony can point out they told you for the best experience you should use the controller the games were designed to use.
Yeah hopefully it's fine, I suppose there is no point in jumping the gun if I don't need to get one.
I have been very vocal on the "I'm not paying £70 for a game" front and now I'm actually considering buying the AC:V gold edition for £70. I recall last time I used Boomerang I got this thing where if I played something else I'd always have this nagging feeling in the back of my mind that I'm wasting time as I'm paying for a game I'm not playing.
Also I think if I pay that much for a game I'll likely only get one a month if that and I'll actually be more invested in the title. I suppose it doesn't harm to try with one before I decide what to do. Sometimes I wish I was 'normal'

What about straight PS4 ports like FIFA? Which one then!
I know. I was simply highlighting how ridiculous it is to pretend the PS5 is "only 7.2L".
The official dimensions suggest it occupies 10.55L, but without the stand fitted and while omitting the "largest protrusion". So actual size is going to be some way larger than that. Which makes sense; it's quite evidently huge by console standards, being comfortably larger than Xbox, Xbox One, or PS3.
The "7.2L" figure seems a bit shaky TBH; it comes from a Japanese gaming site, without much explanation as to how they came to the figure. PS5 "uses a lot of curved surfaces, the width is narrowed from the center of the body to the edge, so the actual volume is about 7.2l". That seems... reliable
They got that from the teardown video, presumably measuring by eyeball 
Just goes to show how easily led people can be.

I'd you'd played Astrobot Rescue Mission VR you wouldn't say that! Honestly, for me that was the most groundbreaking platform game since Mario 64!
I hear it's more of an experience than a game but I'll definitely be checking out Astros Playroom.

Interesting trigger resistance/feedback:
Looks insanely good. Shame I find it too difficult.
