Immersive
Compliments existing PlayStation hardware
Affordable
Comfortable
Good selection of games
The PlayStation VR is the most accessible
Affordable and user-friendly full VR option on the market. Sony has promised support from a long list of developers down the track but the immediate launch games are pretty solid as well
Stunning VR quality
Impressive image quality
The editors didn't like
Some rough visuals
Doesn't come with required accessories
Can cause severe motion sickness
Its single-camera tracking system occasionally feels lacking and you may have trouble when you turn around. The PSVR's graphical fidelity is occasionally noticeably lower than what's possible with HTC Vive and Oculus Rift
Not a standalone product - you need a PlayStation 4 and PlayStation Camera

Its single-camera tracking system occasionally feels lacking and you may have trouble when you turn around. The PSVR's graphical fidelity is occasionally noticeably lower than what's possible with HTC Vive and Oculus Rift
While the motion tracking trails its PC VR counterparts, Sony's PlayStation VR otherwise crams a solid and satisfying virtual reality experience into an existing PS4 game console...
Good game library at launch, Great headset security, Achieves that “full VR” sensation, PlayStation Network filters out broken games, More affordable than Rift or Vive
Makes a mess, Not as powerful as Rift or Vive
Yes. PlayStation VR is launching with a slate of fun games that offer a new type of entertainment. Unless you've used an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, you have not experienced what PlayStation VR has to offer, and you should. Virtual reality, generally speakin...

The full-fat PC VR experience has been nipped and tucked in terms of core technology and visual accomplishment, but the sense of presence required for a top-tier virtual reality experience is undiminished and there's plenty of promise in the initial launc...

Close to high-end, affordable, Some awesome VR games, Range of controller options, Multiplayer and social features
Occasional motion sickness, Tracking can be flakey, Pay for Camera + Move controllers, Wires. So many wires
The PlayStation VR is as good as the games you play on it. Play something slick with a great story and you'll forget its flaws. Sure, it doesn't match the experience of Rift or particularly Vive but as this price and with this momentum, it doesn't need to...

Abstract: I was slotting my grappling gun back into place on my belt when it became clear to me that Playstation VR isn't just really good VR. Playstation VR is the first virtual reality any regular person should bother with. More than the fantastic gaming experien...
Each experience too fleeting, Experiences lack replay value, VR Luge
It feels like PlayStation VR Worlds has two very good games buried within it that have been stripped back to demos. Rather than being amazing, indulgent main courses, they're bite-sized chunks thrown into a pick-and-mix. Each experience is fun, yet far...
Very comfortable, Much more affordable than its rivals, Incredibly smooth, fluid and immersive VR, Some of the early content is amazing
Some inconsistencies to head and controller tracking, Relatively small play area, A lot of the initial games are very short ‘experiences', Some odd design decisions
Is PS VR virtual reality for the masses? It's certainly got more of a shot than Oculus Rift and HTC Vive to my mind, thanks to the number of PS4s already out there, but just because it heavily undercuts those two on price doesn't mean it's actually cheap...

Abstract: Virtual reality will indisputably be the next big thing in computing, with the Oculus Rift , HTC Vive and Sony's PlayStation VR all vying for a piece of the action. Whether it's going to be a genuine revolution or merely a flash-in-the-pan gimmick is sti...
