Reviews around price (4.63 of 5)

  • Sony found the right price to offer VR that is plenty good enough for great games and a lot of fun (more fun than I hoped), while finally offering a headset at a price that is affordable for a whole lot more people than the PC and headset required for higher end VR
  • I'd say it's a decent price for the headset, but not everyone is gonna be comfortable spending a lot of money for the headset
  • Finally this month Amazon had it in stock at a reasonable price.

Reviews around piece (4.56 of 5)

  • This is hands down the coolest piece of gaming hardware I have ever tried.
  • Its a weak piece of hardware my advice get the Samsung oculus
  • When it is all said and done, the PS VR is an awesome piece of technology that has opened up my gaming eyes to a new world of gaming!
  • Amazing piece of technology, can't be happier about my purchase
  • The coolest piece of technology I have used maybe ever in terms of evolutionary leap

Reviews around demo (4.30 of 5)

  • The core kit only comes with the demo disc which actually works out pretty well as it gives you a good idea of which games are more to your liking.
  • I bought Drive Club VR right away because I enjoyed the demo so much
  • The core kit only comes with the demo disc which actually works out pretty well as it gives you a good idea of which games are more to your liking.
  • This will lose Sony support like the vita-The psvr has already outsold the ps vita; and unlike the vita which has pretty much the whole mobile gaming market ( the ds, and pretty much every cell phone out there) to compete with, the psvr really only has 2 competitors.
  • The demo disc has a lot of great demos, I haven't even played a third of them

Reviews around experience (4.17 of 5)

  • awesome experience of VR with PS VR pack.nice to play with it.
  • However, VR is an amazing experience and it is a fairly new technology
  • The experience was amazing seeing everything in 3-D while playing the game
  • Playing a game like Rez Infinite or Battlezone in PSVR is an amazing experience
  • I where glasses and it does not hinder the experience at all

Reviews around sony (4.07 of 5)

  • Sony nailed the technical issue of having smooth motion when turning the head, even if only very slightly.
  • I hope Sony starts supporting the PSVR by offering free games on PSPLUS, that would be very welcome!
  • I'm hoping Sony will make the eye distance calibration more user friendly by saving previous user settings.
  • For what it is, the PS-VR is awesome and I think that Sony will make a killing off of this headset
  • Sony will work out the kinks over the next year or so they will make it wireless and they will improve the optics and so many other issues with this product... don't end up a beta tester for them after paying $400 for this system

Reviews around purchase (4.05 of 5)

  • If pricing was lower would have purchased but it's in its infancy not worth the high price
  • Tried Skyrim VR - It made me sick and annoyed me as it would just be more fun with the controller
  • Fast forward to recent incarnations such as the (much more expensive
  • One of the best purchases I have ever made when it comes to gaming.
  • I was shocked that my 4k television may be broken as I had recently bought it new

Reviews around psvr (3.96 of 5)

  • The Vive is like a Mercedes S class compared to a geo metro aka "PSVR"
  • With the PSVR on you lose sense of time, get literally transported to a different place, and truly enter a new world
  • i don't know if that is a PSVR only problem or if that is also and issue with the HTC Vive and
  • This to me is the key reason the psvr is so comfortable.
  • Now comes the reality, PS4 is great at 1080P but obviously chokes on 4K, so to get this PSVR-QHD that I want, requires a another console revision like PS4 Pro, so PSVR in reality is limited in potential to the PS4 itself

Reviews around thing (3.86 of 5)

  • The best thing about this VR headset is how comfortable it is
  • Very happy I purchased it, both for the the games I can play on PS4 but also for the incredible work people have been doing to hack this thing to work on PC as well
  • Set-upSetting this thing up wasn't as bad as people made it out to be
  • The bad things about this are: you have to stand up all the time to play
  • Most people say the best thing is to start slow until you get your "VR Legs

Reviews around graphic (3.84 of 5)

  • The graphics aren't fantastic and the games are limited
  • I'm disappointed that there aren't more PSVR games than there are (especially with good graphics to really submerge yourself in the action) but this purchase is well worth the money!!
  • Fast forward to recent incarnations such as the (much more expensive
  • I have played almost all of the demo games and the graphics are amazing on most of them.
  • The graphics of psvr are pretty good but in no way will it look anywhere near as good as ps4 games look on your hd/4k tv

Reviews around headset (3.76 of 5)

  • The Vive just takes it to another level (but with the worse headset)
  • The headset is very comfortable and it works well even if you need glasses
  • The headset is very comfortable and is not heavy at all
  • The headset is very comfortable, and the immersive sensation is impressive
  • With my other VR sets, after a while the headset will lose tracking, particularly GearVR and after playing for an hour the screen was still centered for me.

Reviews around vr (3.71 of 5)

  • Few exceptions for standing, with games like "Batman Arkham Vr".
  • The best thing about this VR headset is how comfortable it is
  • I have heard it is more comfortable than other VR sets like the oculus rift or HTC vive
  • One issue is that VR, at least in some demos, blurs objects which are not in your view
  • and I do indeed think VR is a killer add on for PS4 and ps4 pro

Reviews around way (3.66 of 5)

  • If you want to buy into VR, this is the cheapest, full featured way to do it
  • If you have a PS4 all ready, this is the least expensive way to get VR.
  • Start with a less intensive game first and work your way up to the more intensive games!
  • Ultimately, the presence of the virtual immersion is undeniable and it's a great experience with much better way to play certain games
  • That's the best way to describe the Sony PSVR experience.

Reviews around game (3.55 of 5)

  • The scary games and videos are surprisingly creepy with this on.
  • The games are horrible the quality of the vr is garbage
  • Some people get motion sick, some people can't handle the scary games (me) some people are on cloud 9
  • I just can't wait for there to be more good games available for it
  • I hardly used it because there weren’t any good games for it

Reviews around track issue (2.20 of 5)

  • I am a big fan of the idea, but implementing isn't as great as I'd like
  • so I can't review those, honestly I'm not too interested in those yet, but I am sure the other reports on tracking issues are accurate
  • The reason that I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is only because of the tracking issues with the move controller
  • Truly amazing as I've been playing games since the Atari age
  • You will need a playstation camera to use psvr so make sure you pick that up if your looking at the base model you should also get two playstation move controllers as they enhance and in some cases are necessary for gameplay

Reviews around bite (1.85 of 5)

  • This is a bit strange, but its easy to forget how fulfilling it is to have a unified ecosystem
  • This is a bit strange, but its easy to forget how fulfilling it is to have a unified ecosystem
  • Haven't used with the move controls, ps4 controller wonders a bit
  • A little bit of light came in through the sides, but not that distracting since I don't have extremely bright light in the man cave
  • Unfortunately, this headset design, while simplistic, leaves a bit to be desired for adjustments

Reviews around wire (1.69 of 5)

  • The wires to run the headset are really cumbersome and restricting, the camera needs me to be sit certain length away from it, and at that length the cord is almost all used up
  • The unit is comfortable but the wire is a pain, I clipped it to my pants to keep from pulling on my head.
  • as well this will work as a monitor for any HDMI output devices like PC, Xbox One, etc (the wiring is intense but easy if you can set up PSVR itself).If you can afford this and are patient enough for the good games to come, this is a must buy for gamers and those who want a new experience.
  • but for me, I found the main wiring harness quite long enough to sit about 6 feet from the PS4.
  • I found wires were suprisingly not uncomfortable, I find it

Reviews around oculus (1.49 of 5)

  • The field of view isn't quite as good as Oculus or the Vive, but I never noticed it until the headset was black, waiting to load.
  • Or the Oculus Rift that is meant to be played in an identical manner as the PS VR.
  • If you are going to spend that much then you can afford the the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift and a new graphics card and even have some money left over
  • I really hope that Sony releases some newer motion controllers similar to the oculus rift controllers
  • I would position it superior to oculus rift (unless you buy touch controllers) and below htc vive (since it does not have room scale and motion tracking isn't as precise)
  • Read remaining 11 reviews for oculus

Reviews around htc (1.38 of 5)

  • I'm very happy this product exists, as it's the first step to bringing VR content to consoles for people who don't want to shell out $1000+ for a decent PC that will run an HTC Vive or Oculus Rift with with good graphics, especially for us mac users
  • Lets say you are in the market for a Virtual Reality HMD, and you don't have $800 let alone a computer good enough to run the HTC Vive or the Oculus Rift
  • If you are going to spend that much then you can afford the the HTC Vive or Oculus Rift and a new graphics card and even have some money left over
  • games.1.For example, to run the HTC vive and oculus rift, you'll need to purchase a gaming computer of at least $1,000 dollar value to run these $800 dollar headsets
  • The PSVR would only be worth buying if you could get it for significantly less than the HTC Vive or the Oculus Rift

Reviews around motion sickness (1.16 of 5)

  • that's when the motion sickness and headache starts, but I love
  • I don't get motion sickness like quite a bit of people says
  • Just as a disclaimer, I get motion sickness really easy
  • So you need to disconnect it and reconnect it to use, or you get poor video to your nice new 4K tv
  • I do not get motion sickness easily, but a few games have given me some vertigo.

Reviews around connection (1.00 of 5)

  • VR headset received wasn't working (loose connection) which was very disappointing, but now I can't even get an replacement since it's temporarily out of stock
  • The cable on that head set is loose and loses connection sometimes
