Room scale is hands down, the best VR experience you can have, Motion controllers make interaction in VR natural, Tracking is almost flawless with proper sensor placement, Chaperone gives you confidence to move around in VR, Headset is comfortable over lo
Clearing space can be a pain, especially in smaller British homes – but it is worth it, Set up can be a bit fiddly, Steam VR still crashes, Lens contours can occasionally be seen in scenes with bright light sources, Headset weighting needs improvement, Cr
At the end of my testing period with the Vive, as I look at it on my desk and consider how much I will use it now that I do not have to for work, I find myself in a bit of a love/hate relationship with it.I have had some truly mind-blowing experiences wit...

Strapping the Vive to our face has been an out of this world experience.The potential for this tech is huge and it takes gaming to a whole new, and insanely immersive, level.However, for all its glory the Vive is not without its faults and the fact you ne...

Innovative VR that allows you to move around in a virtual space, excellent visuals thanks to high-res displays, controllers are excellent and offer developers many options for use
Setup is far from straight forward thanks to sensor placement, occasional crashes when installing, Room Space requires a large area to play in, headphones not built-in
We've played a lot with VR over the years but nothing compares to Vive at its best. When Room Space is working and working well, it is a stunning experience without compare. The issue is that in an average London flat it is very hard to experience...
The best room-scale VR experience available, HTC is investing in the Vive ecosystem, Can be used either seated or standing
Most expensive headset on the market, Still aren't quite enough killer apps out there, So. Many. Cables
At £760, the HTC Vive isn't cheap. To compare, Oculus Rift now comes with Oculus Touch in the box for £600, and you get an Xbox One controller thrown in too. That extra £160 is really being spent on Vive's room-scale setup, which would cost you £657 if yo...

Abstract: Virtual reality has always been an expensive hobby. Even in 1995, when the only VR option was the Nintendo Virtual Boy, it was hard to justify spending money on the device. It was uncomfortable to wear. It didn't have any good games. And it was a little...
