    I Was very interested in trying our VR, and while it is a unique gaming experience, it gave me serious stomach problems after the first three sessions. My friends who tried it had headaches and stomach pains as well after trying it for only half an hour each. I have been using it every so often and now feel fine after playing, but it still feels a bit off. I was looking forward to Skyrim, but the menus are a nightmare to navigate. Everybody Golf is far too basic. PlayStation Worlds is enjoyable and a good starting point. Astro Bot is truly the game made for VR though and so much fun. Resident Evil 7 is fun as well, but stick to using a regular controller. Overall I like it, but I really don't think this is a must own for anyone, no matter how much you enjoy games.

    So I don't have a lot of prior experience with VR, but after having played the PSVR at a friend's months ago decided to go all in and grab this bundle. I did get a little motion sickness from playing several of the games, but not bad. And it wasn't until I tried playing Skyrim VR in the traditional sense that I got really nauseous. Still after following some steps to overcome this like playing in short sessions and placing a fan in front of me while playing things are much better than they were. All around VR and the PSVR takes getting used to. The 900p resolution screen is a little blurry compared to 4K or even 1080p but the level of immersion is much better. Even trying other games like WipeOut it adds a new level of immersion that makes gaming experiences unique. If you haven't tried VR, it's worth testing at friends first, but any temporary discomfort can be overcome and the rewards are great.

    Really immersive. Even after hours of this thing on your head it doesn't hurt. Family from 8-70 yrs old have used this and enjoyed it. Wish it were wireless like our Oculus but this has it's place in our library as well. Love it

    Bought this Thanksgiving as a replacement for sons he had before our new puppy ate it. The price was fantastic!! Compared to the earlier one we bought, not only did we get more for the money we saved a couple 100 dollars. The headset is newer and more fun. The games are perfect and he has tremendous fun with it. The older headset just sat on the head where this one has a back fitting that adjusts to your head size. But would recommended it not only does it keep him moving he has the BEST time on it.

    I was expecting this system to be overrated, but was pleasantly surprised after a single use. The VR experience is super cool from the 40 year old adult to my youngest 5 year old. All of my kids love it, and our guests all end up loving it as well. It is even fun to watch the person with the headset on. I bought this on a Christmas sale, making it an even bigger bargain. The games that come with this are loads of fun.

    It was unbelievable experience for me with the VR. I played Ace Combat in VR. I never thought I would fly a military jet in my life. I took F/A-18F Super Hornet from the flight deck and landed it in the same aircraft carrier. Apart from that Astro bot was brilliant. One thing i dont like about the VR is, it has too much of wires. I wish they would have designed it wireless.

    I was simply amazed and what this brought to my gaming! First time ever using VR and it lived up to the hype. The headset is comfortable and well made. I was very impressed. My only criticism is that on some games you can get really motion sick and it ruins the game for me, but maybe not everyone.

    Got this as a Christmas gift for my husband. He absolutely loves it. I’ve played a few games myself & it is a totally different & amazing experience. You get lost in the game. Lots of fun games just for the VR as well.

    One of the best bangs for my buck in a long time. Definitely worth checking out if you have a PlayStation and not to have a VR experience in your living room.

    I wish i knew before I bought it. Some games, there seems to be frames where you can look around smoothly. But as soon as you reach the end of the frame, it kindof jumps to the next frame. Like looking at four walls. But you can only see one side at a time, and you have to turn your whole body to see the other side. Weird and takes a bit to get used to it. Did make me a bit sick at first. Other games are very smooth. Skyrim, hard to control with the wands. It's a good experience. Got it on sale for 200 and I have enjoyed it.

    I have tried other "VR" in the past and wasn't very impressed, but the PSVR blew me away. The quality is amazing considering it is entry level consumer VR. The PSVR is great but the icing on the cake is the games that come bundled with it. These are top end games and not throwaway shovelware or lazy demos. The playstation store includes a ton of free VR content also. I recommend you have the move controllers for maximum enjoyment (I used my PS3 move controllers just fine on the PS4). If you have ever been tempted by VR do not wait, pick up PSVR, you will not be disappointed.

    My son received the.PS VR as a Christmas gift and hasn't put it down since. He was blown away with the experience of seeing the game happening all around him. It was a snap to set up and only took about 5 minutes. One word of warning, this box set does not come with the "move motion controller wands". You will need them for alot of the games. Also add a docking station to your list to charge the wands. All in all, it was worth every penny, even with the added items needed. So much fun.

    Great Entry Level Virtual Reality Package for PS4

    If you already own just a PS4 then this headset is all you need. It comes with camera and VR headset and five full games. We already had a PS4 motion controller, its optional with most VR games like Skyrim. You can enjoy these VR games sitting down, the camera detects the lights on the headset and your controller, so you do need to move your arms a little sometimes. You can also add motion controllers and stand up, it's nice having the play options. Some of the main differences between PSVR and the more expensive competitors is that the VR headset is wired to a box that is attached to your PS4, so if you want a wireless VR experience be prepared to drop over a grand or more on a third generation VR setup. The immersion is remarkable, and similar to real life fine details are observable within an arms length and like in Skyrim 'distant' locations appear blurry, but interestingly after couple hours of play your brain adapts. The immersion transition is more difficult for people used to watching 4k TVs versus those with 720p I've noticed. Note that VR games made for PSVR have gorgeous high definition graphics, and those come in a preview disc included.
