GameStop accept them, so do Argos.
What do you currently have?

I would suggest Arkham VR and Until Dawn as long as you have the move controllers.
That's 40 quid right there.
If I had a voucher, I'd hold off on the rest for Resident Evil 7. I'm not big on buying games at full retail when they are released but would definitely get that on release day if I could knock the price down.
Plus, going by the Kitchen demo, I don't know how long I'd last in the game to be spending that much on it
Failing that, Robinson looks good, it takes about 3-5 hours to complete and any videos I've seen online for it, everyone is in awe when they start playing. That will take up your remaining 60 quid. Check out a few reviews of it.

I don't have the Move controllers unfortunately. I refuse to pay those crazy prices for them! Thanks for suggestions though.

Keep an eye out for deals on Adverts. I bought a PS3 bundle that came with three move controllers (they wouldn't sell separately) for €100, kept two of the controllers and traded in the rest of the stuff in CeX for €91.80. So I effectively bought two move controllers for €4.10 a piece.

I know that's a bit of bother, but with a degree of shrewness you could bag yourself a bargain.

Interesting article about how the Pro improves the PSVR experience

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/nov/14/does-playstation-4-pro-really-improve-virtual-reality-performance

That seals it for me anyway, Pro it is

Anyone with an amazon discount wanna do me a favour and order me a vr?

Played the demo of Here They Lie. Worst graphics of anything I've played so far, really bad.

I think it looks great. Very immersive too, controls can get a bit disorientating though. It gets very intense the further you get into it, really feels like descending into hell.

Really? They are decent enough in my opinion. I'm considering buying it actually. Though the controls take a little getting used to.

Here they lie made me fell a bit sick when I was playing it just had to stop it so I might have to try the demo again as I did not like the sick felling.

But the best news was I got my girlfirend who hates video games to try it out last night and here is something crazy she loved vr at the start she was like this is strange then I put on the vr world demo of deep sea diving and she felt she was in the ocean and was trying to touch things being honest Haveint we all tryed that?.

So far I have been extremely impressed with it. The games now are more or less tech demos but there fun. I do think games like until dawn we'll be the system sellers proper games that make you jump out of your skin haha.

Finally played Area X in Rez.

Stop whatever you are doing right now and go play Area X in Rez.

That was my gaming highlight of 2016. HOLY ****.

Would anyone have any idea when this might be back in stock in Argos/Smyths?

It unlocks when you finish the 4th regular level.

I'd never played Rez until i got the PSVR and is definitely one of my favourite games ever at this stage. So simple and yet so brilliant.

don't think anyone does...hopefully before christmas?
personally going to wait till a decent bundle comes out for PSVR with camera and move controllers in store..
Not paying for 2nd hand tech or cobbling together from overseas sites...tech in general is dodgy enough these days want a come back if breaks etc.....if that takes till new year so be it

Rez is a digital only game on the Ps4

Google Earth VR has released for the VIVE.

Here's hoping it makes it's way to the PSVR now too

Saw this earlier, could be a pretty cool thing to get on PSVR

Any idea wht it's quite hard to find physical copies of VR games? For example, I can't seem to find Batman in any online stores.

I thought I read somewhere that they were trying to encourage people to get the digital versions of games because it would be annoying to have to change the disc while wearing the headset etc

That's because there is no physical copy of it... Here They Lie is a hard one to get but there is physical copies, the likes of Batman and Sports bar VR are digital only ...

A shame they didn't make them physical I guess the makers don't want people to sell them on when complete therefore making more money themselves...

Its most likely due to the very small number of potential purchasers when compared to the huge customer base that buy physical PS4 games.

It wouldn't be worth their while to choose physical distribution.
