Well I was at GameStop last night to cancel a few pre-orders. I had No Man's Sky preordered since day 1 and I am still very excited for that and will get it, but the game cannot be beat, so I figured there is no rush and will get it probably around Christmas as it will probably be on sale. I know I know the game should be epic, but with all the PlayStation VR coming out in October, I can wait. I was also going to get my Son Skylanders Imaginators, but for Black Friday and Christmas it will be half off. So I saw an alert that if you pre-order
Song of the Deep you get a power pack and 1,000 power up reward points. The game is only $14.99 so why not, plus I am helping support the developers.
So after I got home last night I decided to look at the GameStop app and put in ps vr. Up until yesterday it only had the Launch bundle and the PSVR headset with out of stock and the
PSVR headset holder from Power A that not only displays your PSVR headset, but charges two PlayStation Move controllers and one PS4 controller. It's a little pricey at $49.99, but unless something comes out before hand or if maybe you want a mannequin head on display. I honestly tried to use my Planet of the Apes head and since my wife really hates Planet of the Apes (hence why I have it, plus it holds all the movies, tv shows and cartoon in the bust of the head), I went ahead and preordered this. It comes out September 19th, 2016.
When I looked at the app last night I see that they added some PSVR games and I will say this, not only does that add to the fuel of excitement, but the pricing is pretty sweet as well. So let's look at what you can pre-order and who knows there may be something that you didn't think about.
PlayStation VR World: This is the one that has been at all the PlayStation VR demos. This comes bundled with the launch bundle that includes the PSVR helmet, two PlayStation Move controllers, camera and PlayStation VR Worlds. But for those that did not get in on that bundle and just got the headset, you can still on October 13th, pick up this title and pre-order it here:
