I don't know. I tried the PSVR, found it very cool (significantly better and more immersible than I thought), yet I wouldn't buy one. A good demo doesn't make for a good product.

The HTC Vive feels much better than the PSVR. The room-scale tracking and "grappling" hand controls really add to the experience.

IMHO walking around is the real thing in VR; games not directly designed with this in mind are not exploiting the unique possibilities of the medium.
