HTC Vive review: Is room-sized VR worth the money?
It's hard to compare the HTC Vive to anything. It doesn't have the games of the Oculus Rift yet, but the Vive's take on virtual reality is best in breed.

Pros:
- Room-scale VR is the one to beat
- Excellent
- intuitive controllers
- Comfortable and well-designed headset
Cons:
- Not enough content
- A bit laborious to set up
- Expensive

HTC VIVE Review: The ULTIMATE VR Experience
OK look, I like to think of myself as a straight shooter, so I'm going to be super transparent here: I am a huge cynic. Yes, being a child of the 80's I'm not actually that old, but when it comes to tech I'm like the grumpiest of grumpy old men. I didn't think much of smartwatches (BAH!

You could say revisiting our HTC Vive review eight months after launch doesn't make a lot of sense: Its hardware hasn't changed at all and its gaming library hasn't seen a dramatic overhaul. From another perspective, though, those are precisely the reasons to re-evaluate the Vive.

- Works with either Vive HMD
- Easy setup
- No image quality reduction versus being wired
- No noticeable added input latency
- Battery pack design makes for an easy swap-out
- Headset doesn't feel any heavier
Cons:
- More expensive for Vive Pro owners
- Battery is not hot-swappable
- Image quality could be affected by slower CPUs

False Advertising
YOU WILL NOT GET FALLOUT 4 VR WITH THIS PURCHASE. I bought this bundle on March 25, it arrived at my post office and was ready for pickup April 2. The HTC code for Fallout 4 VR is a PROMOTIONAL CODE that ENDED on March 31--two days before my "bundle" arrived in the mail, and because the code is...
