sorted bymy neighbour is selling psvr1 for £70 with move controllers and camera so seems like a bargain but can't decide vs this
However for me it's not a device I will use everyday. Sometimes I go months without using it, especially if there's nothing good to watch. I can watch Disney+ on my PC and watch Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 for example, I never got a chance to watch it at the Cinema, plus I don't really like Cinemas and people etc so it's better for me to watch at home. I would say the experience is 95% of that of being in a real Cinema, the perspective is exactly the same.
What can be improved in future VR is the screen quality and the Field Of View (FOV) - Peripheral vision isn't the same or natural as it is with your normal vision, this will improve and already is with Pimax and Apple Vision.
So the next VR system I will buy is one that hugely improves screen quality and has a far more natural field of view, having said that, what VR offers in terms of what I have described above is already impressive.
I watched some netflix on it the other night but to be honest with the standard included head strap its heavy on the face and uncomfortable, you wouldn't want to choose that over the tv for an hour.
Ive got the kiwi design head strap on order that apparently makes it much more comfortable, although the experience on netflix is great ots like watching on a huge screen sitting on a fake sofa (edited)
Been loving it paired with a PC. Playing Half-Life: Alyx which is a masterpiece.
Also had some fun with Pistol Whip and Beat Sabre.
Really impressed with how affordable these are getting now considering the impressive tech.
My wife, who is not a gamer at all, really loved playing Kayak VR and just admiring the pretty things. (edited)
