GAMES FEATURE

WELCOME

T he time has come – the future is finally in our hands. Ever since Sony revealed PlayStation VR, the masses wondered PLAYSTATION VR whether or not it would take off. Judging by the fact that JB Hi-Fi sold out of their pre-order allocation, and have been out of stock until now, it's reasonable to say that it has.

People have always loved being able to play video games more hands-on than just plonking themselves on the couch. Motion control was revolutionised by the Wii back in 2006, and has now become a popular feature of games; the PlayStation VR being the perfect example of this. Making VR accessible for the whole family, PS VR is surprisingly affordable for the impressive tech it's packing, and will provide your household with hours of fun. Titles on offer include STACK favourite Job Simulator 2050 , in which you take on the role of one of a few jobs and complete them as well (or as poorly) as you'd like; PlayStation VR Worlds , with shark-infested cage diving and VR lugeing; and even a VR DriveClub that puts you in the driver's seat. PS VR really does have something for everyone, and it's well worth the investment, if only to see your mum clambering around a virtual reality kitchen looking for eggs.
