PSVR in home trial for PS+ members YMMV

CAGiversary!
Just received an email to try psvr in home for 14 days. Would then either need to be able to send it back or be billed $300. Skyrim bundle includes camera and move controllers. Gives me a single use registration code to use as well. Appears to be from the PlayStation email list, but has anyone else received this? Sounds tempting, but I couldn't find mention of it on the web or PlayStation blog.

You’re invited to try PS VR at your home for free

Any point in even trying with a regular PS4?
 
Just got it as well, if it’s legit it’s a great deal for that bundle ... $50 less than BF price and you get to try it before you pay.

As of now, I could trade-in my v1 headset, 2 old move controllers, camera, and Skyrim for about $150 worth of credit with PRO account. Essentially $150 to upgrade to v2 headset.

fuckin' newsletter. Get your shit together, Sony! Send me your goddamn emails. You know, the ones I've tried to sign up for twenty freaking times. 😤
 
I got one, but I don't wanna have that much money on hold. Especially since I know I'll just play the free PS+ stuff and get bored or spend even more washing the vomit off my clothes

 
Here’s a question ... it appears the charge is a flat $299, meaning no tax in addition to the $50 off the sale price of the Skyrim VR bundle. Anyone else reading it that way? Sweetens the deal even more if true.
 
Well I got mine in. Got a confirmation email too.

credit card shows Playstation VR 1.00 pending charge

Why not? By most accounts, it's pretty much the same thing as ps4 pro enhanced non-vr games. Games that support the pro have slight graphic upgrades and faster load times, but everything should run and look fine on a standard ps4.
 
I got the email.  I thought about it.  Then I went and got foot long cheese coney and tater tots from Sonic.  

....I only regret one choice during that span.

I kinda wanna try far point and eagle vr .. hmm where can one get those cheap

For Far Point, with Aim Controller, $63 with GCU from Best Buy.

For Eagle Flight, $12 at clearance from Target, YMMV, I already got like 2 months ago, and just found 2 copies from a Target and bought 1 of them for my friend. Don't expect you're going to have intense gaming or you will be disappointed. It's more like enjoying the flying experience with some gaming challenges.
