    This thing is pretty cool as it really makes you feel like you are somewhere else. The included demos give you a good idea of what's in store for the various experiences. The great thing is that there are many more free experiences to download on the Playstation store.

    Not sure about phone VR, but this thing is awesome! It's in 3d! You can look around objects (example- floating ship in front of you, look down into it, look below it). I can't imagine what they are going to do next. Recommend taking motion sickness pills to play.

    I was amazed the first time I tried this out. It seriously feels like you are in the games, the only downfall is the limited amount of full games to play. Most are too short or don't use the motion controllers. The ones that do use the motion controllers are the best by far. The responsiveness was impressive. I can't wait until some FPSs come out for this.

    Once you try VR, you realize that this is not another gimmick like the MOVE or Kinect. The only bad thing I can say about Vr is that it can make you sick if you play for too long but other than that this is is a great experience and RE7 is the best game for it.

    Vr is awesome. A little bit blurry at times, maybe I'm not sure how to tweak it. If you have the cash to spend, it's worth it.

    PlayStation VR is an affordable introduction to quality VR. Many of the experiences aren't as crisp or as immersive as the ones found on the Oculus Rift or HTC Vive but, for a system that uses a PS4 instead of an expensive PC gaming rig, I'm not complaining.

    VR is here to stay. The first time you use it will blow you away. While it's not perfect, you really won't even notice when you are in the game. The headset fits so perfect and well made. Honestly you won't get tired of wearing it. See you on the other side!

    Best Gaming on a VR

    Did not know what to expect when first trying but I was simple amazed. The graphics do downgrade a bit but the game play more than makes up for it. My only concern was that I became dizzy after a couple of hours of playing with it. I've read the more you use it, the more you become use to the motion sickness. Other that that, its well worth it.

    At first, it's jaw dropping proof virtual reality can work for nearly any type of entertainment. If you've never experienced it before, you'll immediately feel like you've made the best purchase ever. This will only last a few days because you'll start to notice that your eyes begin to hurt after just a few moments. This is due to two major problems. First, the image the headset can display is pixelated compared to the source image from the console. Your eyes will naturally try to focus on edges and corners which are smooth or fine on your tv but are pixelated in the headset. The second major issue is that your eyes will naturally try to focus differently on objects that are perceived at different distances from you. Since everything is really the same distance from your eyes, the dynamic focusing your eyes will try to do naturally will end up causing achy eyes. Personally, I can't sit more than twenty minutes with it on my head due to the these achy eye inducing qualities. The technology is definitely there conceptually but in practice it has proven to be imperfect at this stage of development. The other thing is the games. While I don't mind waiting for the good stuff, at present, there isn't a single fully developed title which offeres anything close to the kind of depth and scale of gameplay you'd expect in a AAA game. Because of these grievances, I wouldn't recommend this at the moment.

    We loved it from the moment we received it. Even my wife enjoyed it and she's not a gamer. My father fell in love and wants to come over and play all the time. The only downside is it makes you dizzy and sometimes nauseous after playing for a while

    This is a great addition to the PS4. I haven't experienced any other virtual reality headset before this one, so I had no preconceived expectations. The games that I played so far are awesome. Can't wait until more PS4 game developers jump on board.

    I thought it would be nice but had no idea what I was in for. A completely immersive experience. Once you try it you're hooked! The demo disc provided let's you get a good feel for what the system can do and what games you will be interested in.
