    The VR headset itself is great especially the 3D sound with headphones. I have small ears so the earbuds that come with it tend to fall out if I'm playing a pretty active game, but we also got a nice set of over the ear headphones that fit nicely over the headset. Your head can get pretty warm in the whole rig if you're playing an active game, but it's a good set up. The two games in this bundle both just use the regular controller to maneuver the character while you observe the area. Astrobot Rescue Mission is an extension of the PS Room and VR Room where you are playing through levels to rescue all the little bots from where they were scattered. Each level also has a chameleon for you to find which is what prompts you to look around everywhere including over the edge of the play area where your astrobot is moving, around walls, and even behind you. The chameleons unlock bonus challenge levels that range from races to timed boss fights. The overall gameplay reminded me a lot of Little Big Planet and what a 3D environment in that game would be like. Definitely a fun game that you can easily come back to without having to remember what you were doing or where you were trying to go. Moss is more of an in depth fantasy adventure. The graphics are really nice and you go between seeing the narrative in a book to jumping into the book and helping a brave little mouse named Quill. Again, you control Quill with the regular PS controller and you also help her by manipulating the environment like moving giant blocks out of her way and manipulating enemies to help her. There's mini puzzles to figure out how to get Quill to the next area as well as action when Quill needs to fight or dodge past enemies to move on. Overall it's a good VR setup and two really great games to get you started. I'm definitely looking forward to having more time and a better space to play these games.

    I can’t belive I waited so long to buy this! I love VR. I was a skeptic at first and had no plans on buying VR at $400 but at the $199 price point I purchased it at it was a no brainer. Moss is a beautifully amazing game and Astro Bot is the Mario Galaxy Of PlayStation. Everyone I show it too is just as blown away as I am. I’m a believer now.

    I was on the fence about getting PSVR but with a Black Friday sale and gift cards, the system would only cost me $50 out of pocket...so I decided why not jump in. And my word, I am sad I waited so long. It really is something that you need to strap on your head to understand how cool it is. I have pulled it out when friends come over and people are amazed by their experience. When I started playing Moss, I would just stop in every new section of the world to just look around, blown away by what I saw around me. If this is the start of VR, I can’t wait for where it goes in a couple years. Is it perfect? No. Is it probably as good as the PC units? Doubt it. But as a first generation VR set that you can literally just plug-in and play, it is worth the money.

    I wasn't a believer in the whole VR thing. Didn't think it could be THAT big of a deal. I was completely wrong! I took a gamble and grabbed this bundle over Black Friday for $200, which turned out to be an incredible deal. I would've paid $300 now, knowing how fun this thing is. My only major gripe with it is the cord. If you're standing up/moving around you can accidentally step on it, moving the headset & skewing your vision of what's happening. Overall though, it's an amazing experience! Also, Astro Bot & Moss are both great games showing off how cool VR can be.

    I love my PSVR. Astro Bot is a lot of fun!! It's basically a new-age Mario. I played a little bit of Moss, but have not been able to get back to it yet. It was also fun! The only issues I have are that it is uncomfortable to wear with glasses because it pushes the glasses up into your eyes. If you have long eyelashes, that makes it extremely uncomfortable. Luckily my eyesight is not bad where I fully need my glasses, so I play without them. Lastly, the resolution is not the greatest. I understand it's not supposed to be 4k and does not list that. However, I have heard that other VR headsets have much better quality. I hope if they have a PSVR2 with the PS5 that it will have much better quality and more comfort for wearing glasses. Also, keep in mind if you constantly swap between users it will take some time as you have to calibrate your eyes with the headset. However, they may have an option to save multiple settings and I just don't know about it.

    I fell off of gaming a few years back due to being a full time student but now graduated AND with the black Friday deals on the ps4 and psvr, I decided to see if I was missing anything. Oh man was I missing out! VR takes gaming to a whole new level. I don't think I will every go back to flat screen gaming! I wear Ray Ban Wayfarer prescription glasses and the headsets fits very comfortably. The PS4 Slim handles the included vr games with no problem. I can see how this hardware is easily worth the full cost of 300 bucks. Oh and don't forget the move controllers!

    I bought this for my mom and she loves it. She unfortunately can't play for too long because she starts to get motion sickness but that's something that is new to her in her old age. My nephews play it as well and really enjoy it. It's fun to watch them get so absorbed and forget where they are. Overall, I would say it's fantastic if you don't get queasy easily.

    A Really Great Product, But Not For Everyone

    This is the 2nd PSVR that I've dealt with, the first one also from Best Buy. I don't know if Sony did a slight redesign of the headset or not, but this one feels much better than the 1st one. It's more comfortable on my head and I sweat much less while wearing it than before. The headset display is still not quite as clear as watching it on the TV directly. Motion sickness hasn't been a problem for me personally, but others watching the TV while I played have experienced symptoms. It is still imperfect technology, but Astro Bot Rescue Mission is the best full application of the concept PSVR symbolizes for Sony! Moss is also a nice little game, sweet story, well executed!

    For the longest time I was unsure about buying the VR set just because I didn't think it would be so interesting. After trying it out at PlayStation experience '17 I realized I was very wrong. In addition, the two games this set comes with, Astro Not and Moss are absolutely perfect for VR! They r so much fun! You cannot go wrong with this set!

    I bought this on Black Friday for $199 what a great deal, finished Moss and it what a fun first game, halfway through Astrobot and that's even better. Now I'm waiting for a good deal for Move Controllers and I will pick up Beat Saber which looks amazing.

    Astro Bot is amazing. Haven’t got a chance to play miss yet but will. First time using it I got a little nauscious after about 30 minutes but that was expected from what I read about VR in general. Wish I held off for a little longer just because the Borderlands bundle came out for only $50 more. (Reason for the 4 and not 5 star) Astro Bot is a blast to play and pretty challenging. Time to start building my VR library.

    It’s a really great experience for VR. Sure, the pixels are slightly noticeable so you get a sort of screen door image if you look hard enough. The cable to the headset is annoying but not so much you can’t play. The games that come with it are fun as well.

    PSVR is a great way to experience virtual reality. Sure the image is not a clear as 1080p but you get lost in the world you are in anyways. Moss and Astro Bot are two great games that immerse yourself into the worlds they create. PSVR bundles has other games that comes with them. I would have preferred Borderlands 2 but it was not out when sale was on for $200. Remember you have to have a playstation 4 to use the vr headset, it does not work without each other. VR I hope is here to stay. It's so immersive. The controls for move controller is somewhat awakard at times but when the ps5 comes out maybe they will have a VR 2 with an analog stick. Either way, buy now and experience what VR has to offer.

    My daughter and my husband both equally love the VR games and various demos. Some initial motion sickness at first but once you ease yourself into and move past that, it’s pretty cool.

    In terms of sceeen quality it’s not the greatest on the market. But for ease of use, convenience, and comfort. It’s the best to me. I have a semi small area to play but it still works great. It fits well and is a lot more fun than I thought it would be. If you already have a PS4 this is an amazing headset to jump into VR gaming with

    Virtual Reality gaming is incredible! This PSVR really puts you INSIDE the game world in a way that traditional "flat" video games on a TV just cannot match. The feeling of actually being inside the game world is incredible. The Astro Bot and Moss games included with this bundle are an awesome way to get introduced to VR gaming. Astro Bot is just so much fun to play and always puts a smile on my face every time I play through the levels. Moss is a wonderful adventure game with a charming little mouse character. Highly recommended!
