Computer games.

Anyone here got a VR headset?

It's my lad's 18th in December and we are getting him the ps4 one for his birthday (he doesn't know, so it'll be a surprise).

Just wondering if anyone's read any early reviews as to what they're like and what games to get him for it?

Ta in advance.
Probably not the best one to reply like as I sold my ps4. From what I have seen and heard so far, Yes it's cool tech but yes it is still very much in the gimmick camp. It's not a replacement for a tv set just yet as many still complain of dizzyness after no more than 20 mins playing it. The same can be said for all vr sets really. Personally I have the hardware capable to run a Pc version but don't envisage buying one simply because after all the hype.....The Vr catalogue just isnt that great. I can see this becoming another ps move and camera fad. Nothing yet (this generation) has convinced me otherwise. Also of note, The lenses steam up and the wearers head becomes sweaty. Until they sort out those shortcomings....I'm out.
For your kids birthday though.....why not. :) I would be more tempted to get him the ps pro and a nice raft of games instead.
 
If you're going to get an old PS2 to use on a new TV I highly recommend getting a Component cable to make it look ok. Scary looks bad, the original cable looks even worse!
 
I'm a PC player so not sure about consoles but I had a patch with all the logos etc installed within minutes of downloading the game, it's not an issue really these days.
It is if you have an xbox. Not allowed on there to update it.

It is still not quite the same though surely? Also is it true PES was just as lazy pc port this year?

I got a patch off the steam community and it's full on real logos and club names, player names are done already in EPL.

As for the port, I haven't had one since '09 (PES) so not sure but it's been slated for graphically being like '16, personally think it's great and smooth gameplay, so for me personally not an issue.
