Played Eve Gunjack and think it is really good - very simple game, you are just a gun turret on a space station but the graphics are good, great use of the headset to aim, really enjoyed it, the best vr experience for me so far, even if it still kept decentralising

Well, it looks like I'll be saving £400! Played a few games at my cousin's last night and I couldn't focus due to optic neuritis in my left eye It did feel very immersive with the gold headset on too, which the full experience is all about but found all the games quite blurry as I couldn't view it properly and felt a bit woozy after about 20 minutes of play.

I wanted to have a good experience as I was going to get one but the money can be used towards something else instead.

Glad you've found something you enjoy on it mate. I've felt quite bad for you after reading your experiences.

I'm really enjoying playing with the vr but I keep getting motion sickness, I'm hoping that I get over it once my body is used to the tech. Arkham VR has been my favourite so far though.

Cheers, i had a lot of motion sickness with drive club at first but that has kind of abated now so it could be something that wears off pretty quickly as the body gets used to the experience, hopefully that will be the case. If not, i can recommend 'Phenergen' which is a very powerful anti-histamine which also works great with motion-sickness - you can buy it over the counter at pharmacies.

Tried driveclub and started to feel uncomfortable so turned it off. Dont think driving games are for me. Shame as I thought driving would be superb in VR

whaaaaaaaa! The dog has chewed through the wires. SHit, shit, shit! Can't even find anywhere that has any in stock even if I wanted to replace it. Spoke to Playstation they said they would maybe replace the wire but probably not as it's dama.ge. I am gutted

Holy shit. That's horrible. Is it the extension part or the cable directly attached the headset?

Welk i tried for 4 hours to splice the wires together. Then when i looked at the unit i realised i could just attach the hradset directly into the processor. So im a lothappier now. Not ideal. But happier.
I bought myself a new psvr thinking all was lost so might take the cable out and flog the broken one with no cable and hope they contact playstation and get a new one.

I am interested in VR but I'm going to wait to see if it'll be successful and supported also possibly wait for VR 1.5.

Best possible outcome then. That's good at least. Happy you're still with us in VR land.

Do you want a vr with no extension cable?

I was just thinking before that VR and pets don't really mix. I can't let the cats in my bedroom when I'm playing it because I don't want to go flying when a stray cat wanders into the play area! Hopefully you can get it sorted because that would be a major bummer

Been on it for hours tonight with no motion sickness (hooray!). Discovered that the shooting ranges on London Heist are really fun and really addictive. The only problem I have is that I have an armchair with high arms so it can be tricky to reach down to the side to get more ammo. When I try and play it standing I go out of range too much. Need a bigger bedroom basically.

Also decided to buy Thumper and not regretting it because it's a fun and quite unnervingly atmospheric rhythm shooter. Also made me think that they really need to release a Wipeout game in VR. Would be the perfect fit. A racer that takes place down a narrow rollercoaster track. I've only been getting motion sick on games like Eve and Scavengers Odyssey that allow more free movement so on the rails seems the way to go.

As mentioned a few times above, i am disappointed with the graphics on DriveClub, very different to what i was expecting, however, i guess i will have to just draw a line under the whole thing and accept that whereas PS4 VR isn't as good as i was expecting due to the promo videos etc, it is still a pretty decent vr system, particularly when compared to the cost of Vive or OR.

Sony may have sold me a bit of a pup on this one, but there are enough positives so far - Eve Gunjack, The Kitchen Demo, Eve Valkyrie - for me to see that it is a worthy purchase with a lot of potential.

Also, I am confident that PS5 with an updated VR will be what i was hoping from this, and i am sure it is only a couple of years away.

It's why I am ok waiting, I can see Sony releasing a new Playstation in 2018 with improved VR. At the moment I still see this in early stages and not worth investing in yet. Also I don't have the money to buy it now anyway lol.

I invested in a 3DTV and Kinect and they both lost interest anyway, so I'm in no hurry to try the ''next big'' thing. But like I said, I couldn't buy it now even if I wanted too.

Wait wait let me get this straight, you spent £700 on two PSVRs because of a broken cable?!

No offence but is there something wrong with you? :P

No. You cant buy the cable. You might later on but i spoke to playstation and they wont sell me one. They might replace it but not likely. PSVRs. Have bern selling out so got in early so if i get a cable i can flog it on ebay.
It unplayable really without the extension. Anyway i can afford ot so why not?

Just because you can afford something doesn't make it logical to buy it lol. I could afford to buy two PSVR as well but haven't even bought one as not sold on it yet.

It doesnt work properly without the wire. If i bought a couch and the dog eat the cushion yes i can still sit on it but its uncomfortable. Id buy another identical one take the cushions off and hope replacements cushions become available.
