There’s a bit of something for everyone here, though the majority of the VR games available skew toward more gaming enthusiasts than the more mainstream Meta Quest 2. If you’re looking to get your fitness on, you’ll enjoy titles like BoxVR and Beat Saber. The PSVR also features its fair share of multi-platform games such as Superhot VR, Werewolves Within, Arizona Sunshine or the phenomenal The Walking Dead: Saints and Sinners. Though many games don’t utilize it, the best input device available for the PSVR is the Aim controller when it comes to first-person-shooters. Various movements feel great on the Move controller and accessing the buttons never felt strenuous, even during long VR sessions. Like the multiple LEDs on the PSVR headset itself, there’s also a singular LED bulb that communicates with the PS camera for tracking. The wand-like Move controllers are comfortable to hold, and the button positioning is intuitive. Audiophiles looking for richer audio can also plug in their earbuds, headphones or gaming headset of choice. It’s a nice touch that keeps the design uniform and prevents your headphones from dangling or getting in the way during gaming. On the band is a 3.5mm headset jack with cutouts to hold the included earbuds in place. However, prolonged usage over the years has led to a bit of decay on the cushions on my unit. The cushions on both the forehead and behind the head are comfortable. This allows users to push and pull the headset toward or away from their face by holding a button on top of the faceplate while tightening it with a dial on the band’s rear. Instead of using a strap like most VR headsets, the PSVR features a circular band that sits on top of the head. There’s a good balance of weight all around that makes it easy to freely move your head. 2 pounds heavier than the Meta Quest 2 while feeling just as light during operation. Once in operation, the PSVR provides a cool light show between the headset and Move Controller LEDs - especially if people watch while someone is playing in the dark.Ĭompared to other VR devices from Meta, HTC and HP, the PSVR is one of the most comfortable for a handful of reasons. The visual aesthetic of the headset really looks wonderful once the LED sensor lights up. There’s a sleek rounded design that goes well with its black and white colorway. Visually, the PS4 was the clear design inspiration for the PSVR.
