    Surprised at how comfortable when wearing glasses underneath. Feels sturdy, not flimsy, well made and the VR is incredible! So much better than I thought it was going to be.

    I didn't have high expectations but this headset is great. There aren't too many games yet but the ones that are available right now are fun and work really well.

    I would have given it 5 stars if it wasn't for all of the cables but I'm sure that will be handed in future reference. Also it has a pretty good selection of games and they continue to get better. If you haven't done it already I would recommend that you get the Farpoint game with the rifle.

    I've tried quite a few VR headsets both for your cell phone, and for your computer. This thing absolutely steps up and takes a great place amongst the Vive and Oculus. I'm sure there will be some upgrades to come but for now, this is a fantastic launch bundle. The games that you can play are seriously immersive and will raise the bar on gaming forever. I honestly can't wait to see how much more is to come, but this launch bundle will make ANYONE impressed. Best games at launch: Until Dawn: Rush of Blood, Rez, Thumper and the PlayStation Worlds disc included. Don't think, just buy it.

    I pre-ordered this with no idea if I was going to keep it or not. Since receiving it last week I am totally in love with this device! It feels like a brand new console, not like a minor update to the previous generation like the PS3 to PS4 or XB360 to XB1. If you have the money to spend and are on the fence, just get it. It's totally worth it! I kind of wish I hadn't bought my 65inch 4K tv now because this thing becomes a 220 inch screen for movie watching!

    To be honest I didn't think I was going to like it at first let my kids try it out first and they loved it afterwards I tried it and I was blown away I really liked the London Heist demo the most kind of made me feel like I was there anyway before I tried it I was really thinking to return it and get my money back but after I tried it I'm keeping this thing love it haven't tried the other ones like the Vive or the Rift which I heard have better resolution but I really don't mind the resolution much as long as I enjoy what I'm looking at.

    A whole new way to game!

    This PSVR bundle comes with the PSVR headset, two move controllers, the PS4 camera, VR Worlds game (a game with a handful of short experiences to show of the VR games), also comes with a demo disc containing around 15 demos to try out. This thing is crazy. It actually works! You can't understand what it looks like or feels like just watching videos of people play this or describe it. You have to experience this for yourself. You are in the game world, the characters look life size and you can reach out and grab things and interact with items in the worlds. The headset is actually really light and sits on your head very well, not weighing down on the bridge of your nose at all. You can wear your glasses inside if you have them. The tech works by tracking lights on the HMD (head mounted display) to track your movement in the game world. This works 99% of the time and there may be some hitches but it usually has to do with you moving out of the cameras sight or bad lighting in your play area. For the price, the current cheapest VR headset on the market, this thing is amazing! Pick it up and invite some friends over and have a blast. This is the first step in changing what gaming will become in the future. Be a part of it!

    Love the tech, but i just couldnt handle all the motion, i really wanted to be able to handle it bcthere is a lot of potential. But with that said best buy was nice enough to let me return it for a ps4 pro. I would recommend trying it out first. And not for a few minutes but really try it out and see if u can play for longer than 15 min at a time. I couldnt even get through the tutorial of Rigs bc i got the biggest motion sickness from it. Lol But i wont give it a bad review bc it really a cool gadget. Hope this helps

    not bad for the money and vr tech nowadays. some cons to remind: 1. rubber smell is pretty strong for the first few days 2. when screen is displaying a dark sense, lots of noise in the black color, OLED screen is not supposed to be like this. 3. motion sickness, I know it's not sony's fault, but it does exists 4. not a lot of games yet, most of them are just demo I would say. 5. image quality is not great especially at the corners but despite of these cons, I'm still very happy about his purchase, the vr experience will blow your mind and enables you to live in your fantasy.

    A real game changer!!

    Where to begin??? Sheesh. I guess I'll start with PSVR IS PRETTY FANTASTIC!!! Not perfect but it's a great start to console VR gaming. To get the negative out the way, yes, the resolution is not high. I WAS taken aback by that the first time I tried a PSVR (Batman VR) at a Best Buy, and also the binocular effect was initially a negative however it didn't take long for me to forget about those things because the immersion had me so engulfed and was so impressive to me. That said, PSVR is very well done. Game to game, u may experience different levels of immersion to the point it may cause motion sickness in fast moving games or any other type motion that could trigger it if your prone to that like me but I bought motion sickness pills for first time ever because I DON'T want motion sickness to hinder my enjoyment of these type games. The motion controllers are pretty much 1 to 1 tracking altho I continually have probs with the Job Simulator demo. It's jittery and the tracking is off when trying to reach for some things and your in VR "hands" will "drift", for some reason. I do want to get that game, tho. It's fun, despite those probs. The bundle gives u VR Worlds so there are several games to choose from plus there is a demo disk with numerous games on it. I still have not tried every game or demo. It's a lot and I am an adult with a job and responsibilities so I can't just play this all day, every day. My final statement which I have been saying to everyone is that VR is a true game changer and the future of gaming. If u think u get a sense of things from watching vids of ppl playing or standing from afar watching someone's game on a TV screen, you just can't fathom the "reality" of what's going on until you actually put on that headset for yourself. It will change your life!

    I had never tried VR before this purchase, I was blown away! VR Worlds is pretty cool....especially London Heist! There is a bit of a learning curve though, like putting on the headset for starters. The lens also fogs up when you first use it. I have read that you need to turn on the headset for a bit before playing. This allows it to warm up and this prevents the fogging due to the heat from your face and the cold headset. Games are also a bit thin right now, however, overall I love it.

    Wow! I was lucky enough to get my hands on the bundle pack before they sold out every where. Now they are selling for over $1000 dollars. But I know why. This thing is amazing! So much fun to play. It's almost just as fun to watch someone play it for the first time. I admit that some games make me feel nauseous while playing them. But the majority of the games are fine. I feel Sony hit a home run with this VR system. And this is only the beginning with whats to come. Can't wait!!

    The PlayStation VR is a great step into the world of virtual reality gaming. While other setups like Oculus or Vive may provide better optics for the VR environment there is a greater hardware cost that you must maintain on the backend. Overall my family and I have thoroughly enjoyed the VR setup and have played near all the launch titles. If you are wondering about the demo disk, there is a bunch of demos on there to get your feet wet with the VR if you didn't buy a game.

    I ended up getting this unit in a bundle so I returned this particular purchase, but I have one now and love it. In my opinion its 90% of the fidelity and function of the PC VR units like Oculus and Vive, for a fraction of the price. No $1000 gaming PC needed. More games are coming out recently that cut that difference even more. RE7 VR has even surpassed many PC VR experiences and I only expect that to get better as Sony invests heavily in VR.
