So the second half of 2019 was late to the PSVR party and I've just arrived. I would like to start by saying that I have NOT tried PC VR before, so this review is based on going from zero VR experience to PSVR mastery. There are many cables and accessories in the box, but there is a booklet. which clearly describes the method and order of connection of everything. Basically, you get a small, self-powered processor between the PS4 and the TV/receiver, which the headset connects to via a fairly long two-port cable. The Playstation camera also connects to the PS4 and comes with a nice flexible stand. It has to be somewhere it can face the player, it doesn't have to be centered above or below the TV - I placed mine on the side of the screen for others to see - the player just plays centered in front of the TV. That. There are 2 Move Sticks in the pack which are similar to the Wii Mote, with an illuminated rubber light at the top that the camera looks at to track movement. There are no D-pads (arrows) or joysticks on motion controllers, so menu navigation is done by pressing the trigger and moving in a direction. [(Tip: It can sometimes be difficult to connect both Move sticks to the PS4. I suggest turning on the PS4 manually and then one Move at a time. Don't use Dualshock first, otherwise the PS4 will have trouble recognizing this the second move stick)] The headset itself is exactly what it looks like, is a large plastic device that you strap your head to. It also comes with headphones, which actually sound good, but you can use your own headphones or just TV/speaker audio. I have a large head and find it relatively comfortable, there's a click on the back to lock it in place and a slider on the front allows you to adjust the main part of the screen closer or further away from your face. As soon as you place it on your face and bring it up to your eyes, the magic begins. To be honest the first few times I've played with it I would describe the experience in one of the following ways: exciting, amazing, amazing, how is this possible etc. I see many complaints about PSVR about low power consumption, poor tracking, poor graphics/resolution, etc., but if you're having fun and don't want to compare yourself to high-end PC VR, you'll be amazed, as will everyone you show it to. Here are some things I've experienced so far: Superhot: This game is really a showcase for VR in my opinion. These red glass guys follow you, and the catch is they only move when you do. You have to get them before they reach you by hitting, shooting and throwing things at them. They basically stay in one place as they move towards you. It's wild because they seem life-size and you really feel like they're being shot at you. Dodge bullets in slow motion, grab your gun and shoot it while tossing the bottle the other way with your other hand. it's seriously more of an experience than a game. Amazing.Blood & Truth: That was in the kit I bought. Basically, it's like being a movie star - lots of watching and listening to the story scenes mixed with gunfights, lock picking and things exploding. The graphics are very good and the game gives a real sense of presence. The game recommends playing while seated, but I prefer standing. What struck me was the movement - you move in game by looking in a direction and pressing a button, then your character moves, but in real life you obviously stay still - so I thought it was funny at first. After trying it a few more times in short bursts, I got used to it and don't feel bad anymore. I think a lot of VR newbies have experienced this in a game where you move to more than one fixed location. I didn't experience motion sickness in either of the other two games mentioned in this review, since you don't move around the environment. Defeat Saber Wow. This one is addicting. Think Guitar Hero or any other musical rhythm game, except that the notes are colored boxes and your task is to cut them while they go to the rhythm of some pretty crazy EDM Music fly at you. . I think this game has the lowest learning curve I've ever tried because you don't have to press any buttons while the song is playing, you just rock. However, this is definitely a skill challenge. As an added bonus, this is a great workout! I wore a heart rate monitor and played a few songs on the Expert for an hour and 15 minutes (often failing) and burned 940 calories! (I'm a pretty tall guy, results may vary). To recap: Fun, Loud, Good workout, Easy to explain, Hard to master, MUST BUY for PSVR. In closing, if you have a PS4 I would highly recommend PSVR as a jumping off point for some crazy gaming experiences. . Seeing VR in action for the first time will change the game and diversify your gaming library. It's interesting to show people who haven't played virtual reality or who don't play at all. The experience and hardware are solid, and there's a lot to cover in the PSVR's two-year lifecycle. Sony has stated that PSVR and all their games will be compatible with PS5 so I'm not worried about a late purchase and I'm glad they are forward looking in this area. One note: My PS4 is Pro. a version that's said to offer slightly improved VR performance over the base PS4. That being said, the experience is great in any case from what I've read.
