Awesome HMD, my favourite of many I've owned. Haptics and HDR are game changers and will be about the best you can get for that price on PC too (or even higher) due to being OLED which, for me, is VITAL for any kind of VR feeling good.

While I bought a PSVR2 at launch, I've been very disappointed by Sony's lack of development on it. The fact that the new Astrobot game doesn't even support PSVR2 as an optional mode (all first party games should be following in the footsteps of GT7, where the game supports both non-VR and full-game VR). I also own a Quest 3, and in general games on PSVR2 are better (Moss 2 and Star Wars:Tales from Galaxy's Edge for example), but the cable makes it harder to play some games, so the first party games that already use controllers would be natural fits for this - imagine the sense of scale God of War could have in VR.

Sony needs to make the price drop permanent, push the production costs down through the great volume sales they'll get with the PC adapter, and focus on adding VR patches to as many first party franchise games as possible. The GT7 experience is such a great example.
