Reddit reviews PlayStation VR - Skyrim Bundle [Discontinued]

GameStop - Skyrim bundle $349.99! - Out of Stock online

Walmart - Skyrim Bundle $349.00 - Out of Stock online

Newegg - Skyrim Bundle $349.99 + $6.99 shipping Out of Stock

Best Buy - Skyrim Bundle $349.99 Out of Stock online

Target - Skyrim Bundle $349.99 - Out of Stock online

Amazon - Skyrim Bundle $349.00 - Out of Stock!

I'll add other links to this post as I see them!

Update: It's almost 2am eastern and I'm heading to bed. I'll update with more links in the morning!

Update: It's morning and Amazon and Target have joined into the fun! It looks like few online sellers have run out of stock yet, so you can be picky about your retailer. Amazon and Walmart are 0.99 cheaper, if that makes a difference to you.

Update: 2:30pm eastern, looks like places are starting to sell out online. Time to get in your order if you've been on the fence

Update: 11/20 1:30pm - GameStop is now sold out online, so only Walmart is showing stock. Make sure you check your local stores if you are chasing one since stores aren't necessarily showing the stock level of stores.

Update: 11/25 9am - Walmart has finally sold out online as well. They were the last holdout for online sales. Your local stores might still have them though. Also might be worth checking Craigslist and the like for people who bought extras or tried it and didn't like it (Yeah I know, but there's a guy near me selling it after "trying for 30 minutes and getting nauseous").

First IDK what you're talking about when you say VR is starting to flop. VR as a mainstream gaming platform is essentially in its infancy right now, which is even more apparent with those who don't know what actual VR is like compared to cardboard or other peripherals. PSVR at last announcement had sold over 2 million headsets. While that's still fairly insignificant as less than 4% of the PS4 market as a whole the sales for PSVR headsets still continue to grow as people are able to try them and realize the potential for VR games.

There are already multiple piloting games for PSVR alone not including any PCVR titles that might not be on the PS store such as RIGS (PSVR launch title), Ultrawings, EVE: Valkyrie, Driveclub VR, Dirt Rally, and Code 51 which just released a few days ago. There are already many piloting games and they will continue to be made, they work quite well for some in VR while some do experience motion sickness which hurts their ability to play certain games.

VR can cover a very wide range of games that you might not even be thinking about outside of 'piloting' games like sports games that you are actually moving for. Yes, this means you can't just sit down and play it but they feeling of 'being there' is upped quite a bit when you're sweating while playing a video game.

If anything for PSVR ATM the marketplace is *under*saturated with FPS games, at least with games that can provide team based multiplayer. Team based MP titles are essentially pop star games for the pancake gaming market, the more FPS team MP titles released for VR the better since this is what most enjoy as a daily game on a flat screen.

Movement can vary from game to game depending on controllers and settings and while we may not have foot tracking for a full body avatar this has not hampered my enjoyment of VR in any way. In Skyrim I have two floating hands (or move controllers when weapons are sheathed) and the movement settings I use are set up so that I use one of the moves as though it were a virtual joystick to determine my direction and speed which works quite well. Separately the aim controller for PSVR allows for the same joystick movements you have with any regular FPS along with being able to move your weapon in real time as well as your head. While DS4 controllers may be the most basic and the least immersive it is still plenty viable as a method for playing VR games as well as games that are specifically designed for use with the DS4 like Statik.

E: Felt the need for this edit as I scrolled through the rest of the comments.

**Price**

Yes for some if not many VR can be very expensive to jump in to relative to what they can afford. At the same time the PSVR Skyrim bundle with moves, HMD, camera, and Skyrim VR is selling on Amazon for $349 which is every peripheral short of the aim controller which is specifically for FPS games

It's a stiff price but considering how many posts there have been of people buying GoW special edition PS4 Pros for $400 it really isn't that bad.

Sure, there are people who just don't enjoy VR, but for those that do and are willing to spend the initial cost to enter it's a great way to play. I bought Horizon Zero Dawn and I still haven't gotten around to finishing it. If I picked up Far Cry 5 today I know I wouldn't play it for at least another month or two.

Thanks! As of 3am EST it's available on Amazon as well.

Edit: to clarify, I linked to the Skyrim bundle but it appears all the bundle sales are on Amazon. I don't see the standalone headset however.

Depends. If I were you, I'd allot another $450 for PSVR. I personally think it would be foolish to buy anything other than the Skyrim VR Bundle, which is $350. This gets you Skyrim, which is amazing in VR. It also gets you the move controllers, which will allow you to play other awesome games like Job Simulator and Rush of Blood. With $450, you'll have an extra $100 to spend on a few games. Trust me, you'll want more.

I'm a huge gamer. It's my passion. But over the years, even with so many amazing games, it feels like there's not as much 'revolutionary' progression in the industry. PSVR changes that. I feel like a kid again when I come home to play games.

Edit: the GT bundle includes Playstation VR (old version), Camera, GT Sport for $299

I'm seeing conflicting reports of the price drop's time of enactment. Some saying it's already live and others saying it begins 3/29. Looking at Amazon now and the skyrim bundle is $399 (current sale price reduced from $449). When this goes live, will the skyrim bundle go down to $299?

> I have wondered if VR games will give me any problems

I've never played Final Fantasy XV, but under certain circumstances I also can get migraine and just feel awful.

Maybe it has something to do with the rather low/unstable frame rate of the game.

So this should be no problem with PSVR, because all games must run least at 60 fps and then get processed to 120 fps or run natively at 90 or also at 120 fps.

Motionsickness itself will only get bad if you don't stop playing immediately. It took me like three months until I could play any kind of game for a nearly unlimited time.

Your mind and body may have to adjust itself to this new situations. It's like people getting sick in a car, ship or plane, but at least in vr you can just stop... it may just take time to earn your vr legs, but it's nothing to fear! :)

At first I mostly played Battlezone (great game!) 'cause it just worked for me. Other people will have different experiences, so just try out what works for you, thats's why I recommended those vr Demo Discs and VR Worlds.

Looked up this two deals for you in case you didn't do this already yourself:

Both bundles seem great.

Doom looks great and it's mostly Doom as you maybe know it, but it's in most peoples opinion only good with a simple DS4-Controller.

Skyrim on the other hand looks not always as good, but for such an "old" game that is buggy as ever it's just wonderful... you will experience what VR has to offer, especially when you are able to use those fun locomotion controls with Move-Controllers.

Enjoy your ride!

If i order from amazon is there a model number or something I can look for?

I've played VR in my appartment before, and it worked fine. I only played Elite back then, which is a seated game anyway.

If you don't have VR yet, and you wanna get it for Skyrim specifically, I would recommend you get a PSVR+Skyrim bundle. You'll pay 350$ for it, if you have a PS4.

If you don't have a PS4, but a PC that could run Skyrim VR, getting a Vive is definitely getting cheaper lately, so that's great.

In ether case, moving in VR while sitting/standing IRL can be sickening for some people, so I'd suggest you go and try it out. If you can't find anything to try it at, at least try a Google Cardboard (for like 10$ off amazon), to see how susceptible you are.

Are you in America? There's already an amazon deal on that.

Here it is.

I ordered mine and it's arriving today! :D

I already bought an Xbox :P

However, I'll just tell my parents it has better exclusives
