Sony PlayStation VR review: Virtual reality for the masses

We can't count the amount of times someone has said 2016 would be the "year of VR", ourselves included if we're being honest, but we're 10 months in now and it's been anything but. Unavailability, price hikes and the reliance on expensive PC equipment have hampered Oculus Rift and HTC Vive .

Review: Sony PlayStation VR

In the still-young history of virtual reality, March of 2014 stands as a watershed moment: That was the month, as stockholders ( and Kickstarters ) know all too well, that Facebook turned Oculus into a billion-dollar company.

Sony's virtual reality headset is finally here. The PlayStation VR is a $399.99 system designed for use with the PlayStation 4 and the upcoming PS4 Pro . It's a powerful accessory that lags only a hair behind the PC-powered HTC and Oculus Rift in and is far less expensive, especially when you put...

PlayStation VR review: now on sale, but is it better than life?

VR Worlds includes a series of immersive experiences designed to draw you into the world of virtual reality. Ocean Descent, for example, isn't a game so to speak, but instead a five minute or so on-the-rails experience where you play a diver in a diving cage being slowly lowered through the various...

PlayStation VR is a great piece of quality hardware supported by a strong line-up of launch games that showcase the potential of virtual reality. Sony's headset is cheaper than the HTC Vive and Oculus, but its quality is far greater than the disparity in price might suggest.

Works so much better than I expected

This is hands down one of the best purchases I've made for my PS4. It is a bit pricey especially when you factor in the costs of the camera and move controllers but if you're on the fence about purchasing this then I say do it.

Sony's virtual reality system, the PlayStation VR, is designed for use with the PlayStation 4 or PS4 Pro. It's a powerful accessory that lags only a hair behind the PC-powered HTC Vive and Oculus Rift in specs, and is far less expensive, especially when you put the required PS4 up against the pricier VR-ready PCs the Vive and Rift require. In addition, its graphical capabilities and motion-tracking far exceed smartphone-based VR headsets like the Samsung Gear VR. Virtual reality is still a technical novelty you need to be committed to before you spend the cash, but PlayStation VR stands out in price and ease of use. As of September 1, the PS VR will no longer be available on its own as just a headset. Instead, it will be sold only in one of two bundles: a PS VR with a PlayStation Camera (which is required to use the headset) for $399, and a PS VR with a PlayStation Camera and two Move controllers (which are optional, but enable motion controls) for $449.
