I just called QVC (under the guise that I was hoping to get it before Christmas as the estimated delivery is the 26th) and she said her system shows I should and it should be shipped tomorrow!
Will update when the status changes in my account.
Edit: Also, they just debited my account...so I think this is happening.

Queasy I guess. I feel that way for a few hours afterwards. Some people blow chunks within seconds of putting the headset on. Some games are worse than others, but 90 minutes is the upper limit for my best-case scenario.

My nausea is after I play, if I over do it - it has lasted many hours, it sucks.
Buy skyrim is so good!

I hope I'm still around by the time VR gaming really finds its footing with sufficient advancements. I couldn't stomach the god rays & screen door effects of the Rift I bought (and returned) but my experience playing Elite Dangerous with it was amazing. Being able to look around in the cockpit and turn my head to look out the side windows while zooming in and around the stations was unlike anything I've experienced in gaming. My body was literally pumping adrenaline into my system when I was getting a bit too close to things at a fast speed as it was convinced I was in danger.
I wasn't too impressed with the FPS games and the like, but simulator/immersive games benefit greatly from it.

So the bundle I want that has Borderlands VR and Beat Saber is $250, not $200. Ugh. Moss and Astrobot are at the top of everyone's list for best games on PSVR though, so I'd probably just buy that bundle, and then buy Beat Saber seperately. I think Borderlands VR is pretty neat, but I'm not super excited about playing it in VR.
Also, I already have a PS Camera. Is there anything to do with a 2nd one with this? I don't suppose it's like the Vive and can setup a separate camera in the room for better body recognition?

I know a couple people playing Borderlands VR and they can’t say enough great things about it.
I’m so pumped I got the Borderlands/Beat Saber bundle for $90.
I’ll have to check out Moss or Astrobot. I’ve seem videos on Astro but know nothing about moss. That racing game posted a page or two ago looked cool too.

For me, there's two types of vr experience
super interactive, cardio, a better ddr.
I saw this in Japan and my wife and i were just lookin at them play
(theres no way our old asses do anything like that)
and add some of this drum game
and that's what i'm getting with beat saber
I think most of ya'll want this type of vr experience
For now i got a big u-loop clip and a pull, gonna see how i can hang this from the ceiling w/o making it look like some medievil contraption.
I'm not worried about the ceiling at all, i can easily find a beam to hook onto and it's super easy to patch popcorn ceiling.

How they do not have AIM Support for Borderlands V R is beyond me. Everything I heard is that playing with Dual Shock is the way to go, Move controllers suck to use (Which rips out some immersion) and the key controller for movement and shooting would have been with the AIM. How is that not supported?

I admit, it bothers me that they didn't give you all the DLCs. They said in a IGN video that they had years ago the preliminary tech going where you could just look around in the Borderlands world in VR. He said it wasn't the right time 2 years ago to release it, and I agree, but in all that time, they couldn't have VR'ed the rest of the game and given us all DLCs? Seems kinda cheap.

Keep in mind the $250 package also has two move controllers that are $100 by themselves that the $200 Moss/Astrobot package does not have. Beat Saber requires the move controllers IIRC.

You absolutely want the moves and yes you need them for Beat Saber. That bundle is far superior even if the 2 games included with the cheaper one are both great.
I haven't played Borderlands yet because I just don't feel like dropping $50 on it when I know it'll go on sale and I still have tons of games to play, but I'm fairly sure from watching videos and reading that the move wands don't suck to use if you liked using them in Skyrim. Moves need a fucking stick on them but that's not going to happen until PS5 at the min.
Obviously not having aim support is retarded but Gearbox said on their live stream during release they know everyone wants it. Can't imagine that doesn't get patched. I'm guessing they left off the DLC so they could release it for more money, it's Gearbox afterall.

PSVR sale until 12/25

I don't really see anything "must have" in the list, to me the must have list is Astrobot, Moss, and maybe Skyrim / Borderlands / Beat Saber.
Also rumor is BioShock VR is gonna be announced today
and yeah the Beat Saber package with the move controllers is the best one to get, those things can be a pain in the ass to pickup
