Black Friday 2018: This UK PSVR Bundle with Astro Bot Rescue Mission Is a Steal

Weirdly, the same pack plus DOOM VFR is the exact same price.

Am very tempted as I always said I'd go for it if it dropped below £200.

Already spent a crap ton because of Xbox deals. Shame because I need Astro Bot.

Extremely tempted by this! Already have a few VR compatible games so makes sense to me!

@get2sammyb Did it.

Great price, but I'd need to try out PSVR first before spending any money on it. Plus I've already got enough to play right now, so I don't really want another device just yet.

@IBeAGamer maybe you could raise the VR issue with Phil Spencer? And say that Xbox is lacking Astrobot or anything VR?! Another console maker in the VR market would keep Sony on its toes and of course spread amazing VR gaming! Peace Xbox switch dude.

Same price but better pack

The fact that you can get a PS4 and PSVR for the initial cost of a PS4 is insane. The PSVR library is like a whole new generation of games.

Does anybody know if this is the newer psvr model with easier wires?

@bbq_boy or I can buy it when I get paid?

@Neolit I sold my PSVR a year or so ago as I'd just had a son and kind of needed to be able to see him whilst gaming. He's 2 now so he can look after himself and I'll get this bundle 😁

I went for the one including the wands or whatever they're called!

My mum very generously bought the PS VR starter set with the Wipeout Collection set for me for crimbo when it was on offer during E3, and my sis is getting me Astrobot so i'm all sorted, cannot wait for December 25th to try it all out !

@BowTiesAreCool I believe so. But I just asked Amazon UK , waiting for confirmation.

@BowTiesAreCool Just contacted to Amazon UK Customer Service. Yes, they confirmed it is indeed the new model CUH-ZVR2.

@get2sammyb I've just got a similar bundle from Game with Resident Evil VII and a couple of move controllers. I've played quite a lot of PSVR games having previously owned it but I have to say that Astro Bot is probably my favourite and one of the best games on PS4 of any kind. Every time I play it puts a huge smile on my face, from the floor at the first boss that looks like a Psone to peeking round corners to find secrets or the little animations as he puts on his own VR headset or pretends to switch himself off, just a brilliant brilliant game

@Toadie Buy Statik. It's only £4. Great game.

I too am getting Astrobot for Xmas. I can't wait. The vr playroom level was fantastic (that's free btw) and we get another claw machine. Yee haa.

I can't play Wipeout in vr as it makes me so I'll. Good luck with that and if you don't get motion sickness the game is a beast. You can always play it on a normal TV anyway.

@KingSimba ah, thanks for this! Appreciated!

@BowTiesAreCool You’re welcome 😇.

@beemo It could be worthwhile running a thread of games that don't make people sick at all.

I played farpoint with the gun controller. played for an hour and I was so nauseas I had to go to sleep for a few hours. I didn't recover for a few days it was so bad.

I think it's the disconnect with the motion. With rush of blood for instance I was okay without the locomotion - then it kicks in and I felt terribad. And that's not at any serious pace.

@themcnoisy has anyone tried wearing motion sickness patches or pills while playing vr? I mean im sure they have, just wonder if it helps.

@ellsworth004 I've tried the tablets and they made me sleepy. I was a lot less ill but a lot more tired and dozy. I wouldn't recommend using them for gaming tbf. Only if you have to use them in the back of a car or if your on a long coach journey.

The patches are prescription only in the UK. They have a chemical in them which can be used for date raping / robbing people so I swerved that! They apparently work but I don't think you could get a prescription just to play in vr.

@themcnoisy i was thinking more of the over the counter stuff, my cousin gets really car sick, but takes something that helps her out. Not very strong i dont think.

@ellsworth004 Oh I dunno. Maybe. I will look into that myself. Thanks for the assist.

@themcnoisy Thanks, i'll look into Statik, i need to make a list of all the PSVR games that have been released that i want, Moss and Farpoint i know for sure i want, The Persistance too most likely
