Stepping into VR with Sony's latest PlayStation VR2, bundled with Horizon Call of The Mountain™, has been a revelation. Coming from a PC VR background, I've been pleasantly surprised by how Sony has leveled up the game with the PS5 and PSVR2. The setup is a breeze compared to the hoops I used to jump through with my PC setup. Honestly, it's almost like comparing apples to oranges when you look at the ease of getting everything up and running. And the graphics? They're nipping at the heels of the Vive Pro 2, which is saying something.
For anyone looking to dip their toes into VR waters, I'd nudge you towards this PS5 and PSVR2 combo. It’s the simplicity and ease of setup that really seals the deal for me. It’s as close to plug-and-play as VR has ever been.
But it’s not all smooth sailing. There’s a bit of a hiccup with the handheld controllers; they occasionally need a reset to play nice with the games. There’s a tiny reset button you'll need to prod with a pin on the back of the controller. It’s a bit of an annoyance and, frankly, something Sony should've ironed out by now. Hey Sony, it’s time for a fix!
Despite this minor gripe, the overall experience has been stellar. The PlayStation VR2, paired with the immersive landscapes of Horizon Call of The Mountain™, offers an entry into VR that’s hard to beat. It’s straightforward, hassle-free, and delivers an impressive visual punch that gets you close to the high-end PC VR experience, without the usual setup dance. If you’ve been on the fence about stepping into VR, this bundle might just be your perfect entry point.
