I've mounted my PSVR almost three foot above my height, which lets me use my entire play space in any games. The downside is that most games think that I'm two feet tall, making me have to mess with the height options a bit. To be honest, it is worth it.
Mine's only about a foot above me and doesn't seem to mess with my height much so maybe you can find a happy medium a little lower but if it's working fine now it's probably best to leave it there. Don't fix what isn't broken right? Lol
I appreciate you directly acknowledging limitations that you and the people watching this have or might potentially have. I was sick of being given solutions that didn't account for my space issues and being told I was doing something wrong. Thanks for giving considerate, in-depth solutions
You're so welcome Dallin!! I'm glad it helped. I know not everyone has the space to make it work really well but I hope with all the solutions this at least gives everyone a few more options. I really appreciate the nice comment though 😁
For a low price of $80!!! You can find one at Target. Nat had always wanted one for every birthday when she was young so when I saw it I knew I had to get it no matter the price. That was like 2 years ago, so maybe now they're less.
Thank you for your instructions on how to set up psvr for everyone who doesn't know and swear that she has poor viewing. Even though I already have the Valve Index, psvr is, in my opinion, the 1st generation VR champion, price, comfort, immersion, games.
I totally agree with you. I had a buddy over last night and he was playing blood and truth and I just felt bad for the pcvr players who have missed these great exclusives, astrobot, farpoint. Psvr is the OG!
I feel like PC (but sadly oculus) does have a lot of the great games. The sad truth is due to exclusives if you want to play all the best games you need an Oculus and a PSVR. (Lone Echo, Astrobot, Iron Man VR, Asgards Wrath.. etc.) THANK GOODNESS Valve doesn't mess around with that Crap and released Half Life Alyx on ALL PC headsets!!! We love you valve!
It depends on the PC headset. The vive didn't have analog sticks either (What the F were they thinking?) Also having owned a Windows mixed reality headset, tracking isn't always better than PSVR sadly. You have to get Oculus or Valve on PC to really get the best experience still. It's getting better but theres many PC headsets I've tried that I just can't do... looking at you WMR lineup
A week ago I bought my first vr and you don't know how angry I was when it got out of calibration, now that I followed your steps and mounted the camera on the ceiling it detects me better. Thank you very much and greetings from Mexico
Hi memed! I'm so glad to hear that helped so much. People have said that is probably one of the most helpful tips and I'm glad it worked for you. I'm working on another big psvr video atm so feel free to hang out and thank you for taking the time to comment 😁 -Jay
What an awesome guide, super thorough with plenty of ideas to try. I've found that my biggest issue is (ignoring the fact that my play space is really limited in what I can change) sometimes when I move my head forward and back, in game moves side to side. This is more apparent in games like Catch and Release and Pinball FX. Not sure what the deal is there, but it's really annoying.
Thank you! The limited play space does make that very difficult. I would try step 2, the still recalibration and see if that helps with it. It could just be the camera getting confused with the lights. Step 1 made the biggest difference for me though, changing the light color really finished tuning it all up. Let me know how it goes when you try them and I've got more psvr videos in the works so feel free to subscribe if you haven't. Thank you!
I cant believe someone cared enough for PSVR to do this! thank you so much I can wait to try most of these because sometimes I have problems with tracking! THANK YOU!
Awww thank you! I've had my psvr since launch day and even with a PCVR I still love it! When the tracking works it has some awesome games! Farpoint, blood and truth, astrobot and so many others! It deserves it! Let me know how it goes when you adjust yours.
Very thorough video! Thanks for combining all the tips into one. I have my camera and TV on perpendicular angles in my current setup, which helps for my play space in the room, the viewers who are not in VR, and of course I don’t have a direct path to hit the TV. I’ve been wanting to get the green bulb too. One thing I never realized was why the camera video showed a negative effect. You cleared this up for me and now I’ll keep an eye out for any lights showing up as the black spots. Great tip!
Thank you! I've been troubleshooting psvr since launch so I have it as good as I honestly think it can be. You're so smart to have it on the perpendicular angle. Keeps the tv so much safer and everyone can enjoy the social screen. Well done!
Really impressive the extent you’ve gone to for making the best PSVR experience. Most people that buy a PSVR probably just put it on and play, and then people like me take the extra step to do all of the little adjustments and everything... But even I never considered going as far as the green lights and everything! And I also just kind of ignore securing my cable above me, but I also play in a smaller space and usually just play sitting down anyways. It was also pretty funny to see you walking through instructions on how to do everything professionally, and then the moment you start gaming you shout “right in the dick!” Unexpected - laughed my ass off. True gamer moment. You’ve probably done these as well, but have you gone over IPD adjustments with a ruler, sidetone VR menu option, and re-calibration of the move controllers on video as well yet? Other than that not really sure about what else you can do to enhance the experience other than commercial peripherals and custom modding. Does unplugging the VR from your TV help performance? So it’s only sending video to your headset = less processing power. Things to consider. Anyways first video of yours I’ve watched, you earned my sub with your passion and depth. Not many if any other youtubers go that into depth, and definitely not most average gamers either. Also noticed you like and reply to most or all of the comments on the video which is crazy. 400 comments come on man. Makes your community feel heard. But don’t feel bad if you soon can’t do that when your channel gets too big to respond everyone. Hope to see you continue to have that passion, and good luck on the channel. Excited to see more.
Wow! This really warmed my heart and made me feel like I'm doing good work! Thank you so much! I love my PSVR, I only got a PC Headset because I really wanted custom songs for Beat Saber. I just saw so much frustration and people giving up on VR because their PSVR gave them too much trouble. I wanted to make this video for some time to help people and now that it's here I'm blown away by the response. I definitely want to do some follow up videos. One for controller tracking, especially the aim controller as that one can give a lot of grief, and one just for how to get the clearest image possible. I appreciate you subscribing!

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH my tracking used to all kinds of messed up and I thought it was because my psvr was as broken but this fixed pretty much everything.

Great tutorial! Was really struggeling with Vader Immortal. Changed camera position, recalibrated my VR set and move controllers, now the game is working just fine. Thanks!
I used to have 2 different PSVR setups. The first was in my bedroom, with the camera directly in front of the TV. The second was in a spare room that was completely cleared to be used as a play space. In the second setup I didn't use a TV at all. Just the PSVR and the camera. I had, however, acedentally punched my TV in the first setup while playing Super Hot. Thankfully I was able to get the TV replaced under warranty. The second PSVR and PS4 I gave to my brother and his family as a Christmas present. In its place I now have an Oculus Quest and a gaming PC. I still love the PSVR I kept and enjoy the exclusive titles such as Resident Evil 7, Wipeout HD Collection, Astrobots: Rescue Mission, and Blood and Truth. I do not see VR in terms of specific platforms. I only see VR, and anything which benefits VR is good in my book.
Agreed! I still look back at my Gear VR with fond memories and recently gave it to someone who had never experienced vr just so they could get a taste. That's so lucky you were able to warranty a damaged tv though! Lol
Thank you! Just did all of these but the green lights and its tracking better than ever, especially putting it at a downward angle. I always had to adjust it when me and my kids take turns or when I go from sitting to standing depending on the game now it seems to work fine no adjusting. My beat saber score thanks you too!
Yayyy!!! I'm so glad it helped. The green lights are the last minor step that can take it the rest of the way but I'm so glad it's working well for you now!
This was very helpful. The items I used to support with this was expensive but it was worth it. I used LEDs in the background and to the front of the camera, set it to green. And to very little placement lagging as he said in the video, it helped a lot. Thank you so much for this video. For others I would recommend this video to show them
My PSVR is on the way. I always assumed the camera had to be centered by the TV as it was with the original PS Move. Good to know it can be to the side.
@@jaybratt I had to return it. It was open box from Amazon. Someone swapped out the new version and it was missing connectors. Should have an unopened on Monday. Paid a bit more, but hope it's worth the wait.
@@SPiTFiRe_MV that's the worst when people do stuff like that. I saw on reddit where someone got one from target, had a phone vr and NBA 2k instead of anything psvr. Luckily they were just outside the store and went right back
Yes! I got this game, meaning to play it during halloween, but it was such a scary month I didn't get around to it. Since then I've heard this game was not well adapted for PSVR tracking so hopefully this will give you the power to get all of them! Lol
We just recently moved, and I finally have enough space in my room to set up the PSVR I bought a few months ago. Super excited, definitely going to be using this video to help!
Wow I 98% of this. And it is all very true and makes a huge difference!! Clothes do make a difference!! For women, i have red hair and it can cause issues, thankfully a green light helps counter this. If you have alot of red in your room, add a green light to your ambient lighting, for beat saber since the colours it uses is red and magenta, i find it helps as well.
Thank you! I didn't think about the hair color that's crazy! This is the product of almost 4 years of troubleshooting mine to get the best experience possible! Lol. Thank you for taking the time to comment and if you're a vr lover like me check out the 1000 subscriber thank you video as we're giving away a bunch of vr gear to thank the community!
I've had a psvr for like 2 yrs now and I am now just finding out that people had problems with the tracking. Ima use these steps just to make it where I can do more stuff in vr, thx g apperciated
Thanks for these tips. I started getting some serious wobble when playing VR games, and could not figure out how to fix it, it was even giving me some motion sickness. I'll definitely have to change some stuff around in my room to make this setup, seems much better than what I've got now. Thank you!
Thank you and let me know how it goes. Wobble can be a symptom of too much light or too far from the camera so definitely try both. A very small amount of wobble is normal but it shouldn't really be noticeable as your head is never perfectly still anyways. I hope this fixes it all for you :)
Thank you so much! I got the giraffe at Target. It was like $80, Aaah, but Nat had wished for one all her bdays as a kid and never got one so I knew I had to get it.
You're welcome. It makes such a big difference because theres less of your body to get in the way. None of this will be a problem with Dunder Mifflin Infinity 2.0... Wait I mean psvr 2.0
@@panther535 theres a lot of different ways. 3m velcro straps are great if you don't want to damage the wall. Some people just use push pins. I personally put a screw right through the mount and into the wall but I've even seen duct tape used. It all depends on how pretty or functional you want it to look. At one point I zip tied my camera to a shed door hinge so I could turn it to the best possible play space: www.reddit.com/r/PSVR/comments/ascqhf/trying_to_hide_my_second_camera_from_the_living/?
Wow very informative I didn’t realise how complex correctly setting up the PSVR is, as a disabled person in a wheelchair I’m so glad the quest 2 is relatively painless to set up. (Though using a huge stuffed giraffe to calibrate the tracking is brilliant 😂😂)
I'm glad to be of help Mike! The Quest 2 is much easier to setup. You may find the arm rests on chairs get in the way a bit if you have those but it's easy to learn to work around.
@@mikecoshan3752 I hope it does. My first VR chair I never put the arm rests on to give me more mobility. Then I lost them and when I gave the chair away they were all "where's the arm rests?" 😂
Thanks to the help of my patreon members I just upgraded to Adobe Premiere Pro, the problem now is I need to learn it lol. Before starting this channel last year I had no background or training in any of this so it's been a huge learning experience. Thank you for the encouragement Bryant!!! :)
Awesome! They're so fun and once the tracking is tuned it's a blast to play. It still won't be 360 tracking so it may take a bit to teach yourself not to turn around but the price of psvr makes it so approachable over other headsets still. Watch the used markets or for a sale and you can get the full setup for around $200
I have the color changing bulbs. I tried this last night with arizona sunshine and killing floor incursion. I was extemely surprised the difference the green light made. Tracking was perfect.
It's crazy how much the green light does isn't it? Besides camera placement it's probably the single best improvement I've ever seen. I'm so happy to hear this made such a difference for you
@@jaybratt yes, the help is very appreciated! I started to notice the changes after I changed my entire gaming setup. That it was performing badly (specially in creed fight for glory) which is why I decided to look up tips for better tracking. Thanks again and take care during these times.
I did not watch this when you first posted this because I thought I knew everything. I typically have good tracking except for Moss. But wow, I did not know about #3! And the other ones, seeing it all helped make some of the reflective surface issues click. Thanks so much.
Thank you! I'm so glad it helped you. Theres a few other tips people told me, I added them to the description too. Like leaving the controllers steady when you power them on. Psvr can be such a great experience but it's tough it can take this much work to get it right. Heres to psvr2 being worlds better!
I'm so glad to hear that G0lden! Thank you! I love Superhot when the tracking works, as I'm sure you could tell if you watched the end of the video hahaha
The best guide on how the tracking works so far, I knew reflections could be a problem, but I really wanted to know how the tracking worked, I used to have a small room with really reflective paint on the wooden walls which made playing VR games nearly impossible, however, since I moved I have a perfect room for VR, or so I thought, even though I can have the camera in a position you can see the floor and ceiling, and basically the ENTIRE room, I still have tracking issues while I make sure that the light isn't being reflected and there's nothing in the way, wich made playing games like Fnaf VR impossible. Now thanks to this video there's a few things I can still check to improve! Also this is kinda why my PSVR is gathering dust, I like to play VR, but I just hate how much effort it costs to set it up perfectly, I just wanna put the VR headset on and go
Thank you Wilbert! I hear you. The PSVR is not as put on and play as we would like and if you ever go for a Quest you will love that about it. It's really the Nintendo Switch of the VR world. I'm glad to hear this was helpful and I hope it gives you some more life to your PSVR! I personally can't wait to play Hitman in VR in 9 days! Thanks PSVR exclusives lol
I love my PSVR but i had just come to accept tracking issues, especially in going low. It really took my experience in fun games like Creed from Great to just Very Good. But just watching you play Superhot tells me these tips are really what i was missing. The camera position in particular is an eye opener. I've had my camera right BELOW my tv because i couldn't get it mounted up top and i figured as long as i was in frame, i was good to go. I'm definitely going to put it high up and give this all another try. Great video, and well edited too!
Thank you so much! This comment really made my night! I wish psvr had launched with a set of tips to help people like this because it can be so much better than everyone thinks! Sadly I don't think even sony knew all this back at launch and weve all had to learn together. Thank you for the kind words. We're giving away a bunch of VR gear over on the 1000 subscriber thank you video if you wanna get in on that misterkeebler!
Welcome back to psvr then. Haha. I play my rift s a lot but every time I come back to psvr I'm always impressed with the comfort and build quality. Sony did something amazing with what they had. Heres to hoping psvr2 is amazing but has perfect tracking out of the box!

@@diannedouglas8469 the way the camera is positioned it can see my arms reach even fully extended so I can easily grab anything in my zone in the game if that's what you are asking. If not let me know and I'll answer any other questions I can 😊
Something I found out at one point was that Christmas lights sends the tracking haywire. Took us a bit before we figured it out, but it perplexed the heck out of my older brother and me. Super glad to hear these tips and explanations though- the red and blue lights on them must’ve been what was messing with it, and I’ll be showing my family these tips later to see what we can do to improve our gameplay!!!
Hey I'm really happy to hear this. I hope it helps you and your family a lot! We cover a lot of vr accessories and psvr gameplay so I hope to see you around the channel in the future! Thank you!!
I like the selfie stick idea. Having my camera 7 ft off the ground helps immensely for most of my games. However it doesn't work well when using the aim controller. In far point, borderlands, and firewall the guns will drift to the side unless I have the camera below my head. I saw a video of someone else mentioning this as a common issue with the aim controller. I'm going to try that selfie stick idea to make the camera mobile. Thanks!
Thank you so much for subscribing! I'm really glad to hear you liked the selfie stick idea! There are a few games that do have better tracking with it lower, beat saber I noticed higher scores when I moved the camera down. I've played a lot of farpoint though and it seemed good with the high camera, the key I noticed was just not getting too far away. Although the drift can be worse with some aim controllers, I own two and one works much better than the other and almost never drifts. Idk why but I hope gen2 of psvr doesn't have any of these issues 😁
Dude thanks for the tips!! I haven't played my PSVR in awhile due to my tracking problems but with this I'mma hook it back up and play again. Thank God I have the Philip Hue lights as well lol got a good deal at Xmas.
I was about to quit playing lol. Cant play on expert with these problems. But I put my camera higher up, re calibrated the head set and now its perfect :) Great video! thanks for the information
Hahaha Fulcrum I love that! It is interesting if you've never had a PSVR to see what helped. Oddly I installed some new LED strips in my garage and they were messing with my Quest 2 tracking terribly so I tried them on Green, fixed it. Something with white interfered with the controllers and if I hadn't known that from PSVR I might have never tried another color.
@@jaybratt Yeah I'm not familiar with a lot of the VR tracking stuff, I just like the simplicity of the Quest. I've used PSVR at my friend's house and it was a great system for it's time but the lack of joysticks really held it back
@@_fulcrum absolutely! The psvr was really cool 5 years ago but tech has moved on and simplified. I'm hoping psvr 2 feels revolutionary but if it's gonna be wired I worry it'll be DOA
Hey welcome to the PSVR family! It's so much fun and you have a lot of great experiences ahead of you! As long as you get the tracking set up it will rarely get in the way also.
Thanks Thymen, I appreciate all your support here and on insta. We're growing steadily and thanks to awesome people like you it keeps getting faster and faster. This psvr video has been a big hit when I shared it a few places. Feel free to share wherever and thank you so much for your continued support. You rock!!
Here’s an idea for you if your cables in the way put a piece of extra clothing over the cable like a dressing gown/robe around your cable and the cable will stop getting in the way
Pretty good tips. Can't wait to try the wall mounting and green light thing. I've always wondered how you are supposed to mount the camera on top of a flat screen tv. That never really made sense to me.
Yeah that camera mount is not well designed for any tv! It works way better as a swivel wall mount. Maybe Sony just didn't want to be telling kids to put holes in their walls? Lol
I'm so glad this helped you! Welcome to the psvr community! If you're a vr lover like me make sure and check out our 1000 subscriber thank you video. We're giving away a bunch of vr gear to say thank you to all these amazing people
Don’t forget to use different colors! Your double pink remotes might look cool, but if the colors are similar it could mess it up, use different colors that are decently away from each other on the color wheel, like pink and blue,
Awww thanks Bumblefreak, I can't fully claim the idea, I had inspiration from a lot of random places including a retro lamp I had with a long arm that made it stick out from behind the couch to the center of the room. The keyring zip things are also from another VR Cable kit: th-cam.com/video/Z31D_2GW3F0/w-d-xo.html

I was going to make a similar video. no need now as you've done it far better than I ever could. i'll just send people to this video. Thank you. I see you still use fiddly wrist straps have you tried sticking finger grips onto the moves?

@@youmustpaythetrolltoll8517 nice! Hopefully you got firewall while it was free. I got my psvr back at launch, 2016, and loved it so much late 2017 we got a second one for farpoint and other co op.

Thank you! How tall are you? My buddy who's 6'5" played and still didnt hit my stand. I just made the bar a little longer than normal to keep it away from their arm reach.
Good collection of tracking information ive seen all over the place, but never in one place. The info frank gave (which came from someone’s writeup) was wayyy more complicated than your version. I would use his setup guide.
Thank you! I wanted it all to be together so people could do it once and enjoy psvr to its fullest! When you say use his guide? Who do you mean, frank or the guy that frank got the info from?
@@jaybratt They guy frank first got the guide from. It's basically the same info, Frank just made it "simpler" to follow (video guide definitely helps) compared to the paper. I didnt notice an improvement tbh but I never had a problem other than what is inherent in a light based system and controllers occluding each other (changing player position to the camera in some games helps).
@@jaybratt heck yeah! By the way, we had a lamp on behind us and once we turned it off the tracking improved immensely! I was getting so mad when the tracking was off! 😂
Wow! This was so helpful. I especially appreciated the selfie stick trick, mat hack, and green light tip. Now I gotta find me a fluffy giraffe... Overall, Great tips. You clearly are sharing from personal experience and past struggles.
Aww thanks Andrea! Yes almost 4 years of troubleshooting, discussions on reddit, and personal struggles to get just the right setup lol. Welcome and I'll hopefully see you around the channel :)
Was having crazy arms/ tracking issues with the move controllers on Rush of Blood. I am doing the hard system calibration and using the LED lighting on green for when we play! Great tips and great execution, cool channel. Thanks! ☆
Hi Luna! I'm sorry to hear you were having issues but I'm really glad this helped!!! Rush of Blood is awesome but theres one level that was super awful for me personally lol. I won't spoil it but once you get there I'm sure you'll be able to guess what it was
My room is so tiny that I can’t even spread my arms all the way out without touching at least one wall and my camera is just haphazardly placed on top of my tv, my tracking is hopeless anyway
@@iveneverlostapistolround ouch! At least it was a wall you could break. My buddy lives on a basement apartment and the walls are concrete, much less forgiving! If you've never checked out the subreddit ERtoVR, it's got some terrible vr mishaps, like punching through a ceiling light
Thanks! Psvr is way better than it gets credit for. Yeah its aging but when you can find full bundles for less than $200 now that's a crazy low price of entry for this level of VR.

I've mounted my PSVR almost three foot above my height, which lets me use my entire play space in any games. The downside is that most games think that I'm two feet tall, making me have to mess with the height options a bit. To be honest, it is worth it.
Mine's only about a foot above me and doesn't seem to mess with my height much so maybe you can find a happy medium a little lower but if it's working fine now it's probably best to leave it there. Don't fix what isn't broken right? Lol

Now I have to buy a giraffe.
For a low price of $80!!! You can find one at Target. Nat had always wanted one for every birthday when she was young so when I saw it I knew I had to get it no matter the price. That was like 2 years ago, so maybe now they're less.

I think that's the giraffe from Brady Bunch, in the girls' room.
It's definitely the MOST INTERESTING a story about a stuffed giraffe can get lol
I'm gonna have to go look now! I saw it on one show but I can't remember what it was. Something newer

I totally agree with you. I had a buddy over last night and he was playing blood and truth and I just felt bad for the pcvr players who have missed these great exclusives, astrobot, farpoint. Psvr is the OG!
Pc still have the better games
I feel like PC (but sadly oculus) does have a lot of the great games. The sad truth is due to exclusives if you want to play all the best games you need an Oculus and a PSVR. (Lone Echo, Astrobot, Iron Man VR, Asgards Wrath.. etc.) THANK GOODNESS Valve doesn't mess around with that Crap and released Half Life Alyx on ALL PC headsets!!! We love you valve!
It depends on the PC headset. The vive didn't have analog sticks either (What the F were they thinking?) Also having owned a Windows mixed reality headset, tracking isn't always better than PSVR sadly. You have to get Oculus or Valve on PC to really get the best experience still. It's getting better but theres many PC headsets I've tried that I just can't do... looking at you WMR lineup

Would just like to let ya know that 3 years later and this guide is still really useful. Thanks dude.
That means a lot to me, thank you!
@@jaybratt No problem man.
I did that tip where u put the camera hi up. I got duck tape and put it really high. And it works SO MUCH BETTER. THANK U
Hi memed! I'm so glad to hear that helped so much. People have said that is probably one of the most helpful tips and I'm glad it worked for you. I'm working on another big psvr video atm so feel free to hang out and thank you for taking the time to comment 😁 -Jay
What an awesome guide, super thorough with plenty of ideas to try. I've found that my biggest issue is (ignoring the fact that my play space is really limited in what I can change) sometimes when I move my head forward and back, in game moves side to side. This is more apparent in games like Catch and Release and Pinball FX. Not sure what the deal is there, but it's really annoying.
Thank you! The limited play space does make that very difficult. I would try step 2, the still recalibration and see if that helps with it. It could just be the camera getting confused with the lights. Step 1 made the biggest difference for me though, changing the light color really finished tuning it all up. Let me know how it goes when you try them and I've got more psvr videos in the works so feel free to subscribe if you haven't. Thank you!
I cant believe someone cared enough for PSVR to do this! thank you so much I can wait to try most of these because sometimes I have problems with tracking! THANK YOU!
Awww thank you! I've had my psvr since launch day and even with a PCVR I still love it! When the tracking works it has some awesome games! Farpoint, blood and truth, astrobot and so many others! It deserves it! Let me know how it goes when you adjust yours.
Very thorough video! Thanks for combining all the tips into one. I have my camera and TV on perpendicular angles in my current setup, which helps for my play space in the room, the viewers who are not in VR, and of course I don’t have a direct path to hit the TV. I’ve been wanting to get the green bulb too.
One thing I never realized was why the camera video showed a negative effect. You cleared this up for me and now I’ll keep an eye out for any lights showing up as the black spots. Great tip!
Thank you! I've been troubleshooting psvr since launch so I have it as good as I honestly think it can be. You're so smart to have it on the perpendicular angle. Keeps the tv so much safer and everyone can enjoy the social screen. Well done!
Really impressive the extent you’ve gone to for making the best PSVR experience. Most people that buy a PSVR probably just put it on and play, and then people like me take the extra step to do all of the little adjustments and everything... But even I never considered going as far as the green lights and everything! And I also just kind of ignore securing my cable above me, but I also play in a smaller space and usually just play sitting down anyways. It was also pretty funny to see you walking through instructions on how to do everything professionally, and then the moment you start gaming you shout “right in the dick!” Unexpected - laughed my ass off. True gamer moment. You’ve probably done these as well, but have you gone over IPD adjustments with a ruler, sidetone VR menu option, and re-calibration of the move controllers on video as well yet? Other than that not really sure about what else you can do to enhance the experience other than commercial peripherals and custom modding. Does unplugging the VR from your TV help performance? So it’s only sending video to your headset = less processing power. Things to consider. Anyways first video of yours I’ve watched, you earned my sub with your passion and depth. Not many if any other youtubers go that into depth, and definitely not most average gamers either. Also noticed you like and reply to most or all of the comments on the video which is crazy. 400 comments come on man. Makes your community feel heard. But don’t feel bad if you soon can’t do that when your channel gets too big to respond everyone. Hope to see you continue to have that passion, and good luck on the channel. Excited to see more.
Wow! This really warmed my heart and made me feel like I'm doing good work! Thank you so much! I love my PSVR, I only got a PC Headset because I really wanted custom songs for Beat Saber. I just saw so much frustration and people giving up on VR because their PSVR gave them too much trouble. I wanted to make this video for some time to help people and now that it's here I'm blown away by the response.
I definitely want to do some follow up videos. One for controller tracking, especially the aim controller as that one can give a lot of grief, and one just for how to get the clearest image possible.

THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH
my tracking used to all kinds of messed up and I thought it was because my psvr was as broken but this fixed pretty much everything.
I'm soooo happy to hear that! I love when people get the best out of their psvr because it is so good! I'm so happy for you and that made my day too!
The Trick with the high was amazing! It tracks perfectly now.
Yay!!! I'm so glad it helped you out. I probably should've made that the number one tip but I was worried if people trailed off theyd miss that one and it makes such a difference! If you're a vr lover check out the 1000 subscriber thank you. We're giving away a bunch of vr gear. Thank you!
Great tutorial! Was really struggeling with Vader Immortal. Changed camera position, recalibrated my VR set and move controllers, now the game is working just fine. Thanks!
I'm so glad to be of help!!! Thank you! Also... I think Wesker is pretty cool too :D
Nice.
I used to have 2 different PSVR setups.
The first was in my bedroom, with the camera directly in front of the TV. The second was in a spare room that was completely cleared to be used as a play space.
In the second setup I didn't use a TV at all. Just the PSVR and the camera. I had, however, acedentally punched my TV in the first setup while playing Super Hot. Thankfully I was able to get the TV replaced under warranty.
The second PSVR and PS4 I gave to my brother and his family as a Christmas present. In its place I now have an Oculus Quest and a gaming PC. I still love the PSVR I kept and enjoy the exclusive titles such as Resident Evil 7, Wipeout HD Collection, Astrobots: Rescue Mission, and Blood and Truth.
I do not see VR in terms of specific platforms. I only see VR, and anything which benefits VR is good in my book.
Agreed! I still look back at my Gear VR with fond memories and recently gave it to someone who had never experienced vr just so they could get a taste. That's so lucky you were able to warranty a damaged tv though! Lol
Thank you! Just did all of these but the green lights and its tracking better than ever, especially putting it at a downward angle. I always had to adjust it when me and my kids take turns or when I go from sitting to standing depending on the game now it seems to work fine no adjusting. My beat saber score thanks you too!
Yayyy!!! I'm so glad it helped. The green lights are the last minor step that can take it the rest of the way but I'm so glad it's working well for you now!
This was very helpful. The items I used to support with this was expensive but it was worth it. I used LEDs in the background and to the front of the camera, set it to green. And to very little placement lagging as he said in the video, it helped a lot. Thank you so much for this video. For others I would recommend this video to show them
Thank you so much!!! This was about 3 years of troubleshooting, testing and failing so I appreciate the kind words! Thank you
My PSVR is on the way. I always assumed the camera had to be centered by the TV as it was with the original PS Move. Good to know it can be to the side.
Good I'm glad you saw this. Way too many broken tvs because of putting the camera on it. Thank you!
@little Pupper so far, we're still getting deliveries. Some delays depending on the items. Tracking says it arrives by the end of the day tomorrow.
I hope it arrived and you've been enjoying VR for over a month now!
@@jaybratt I had to return it. It was open box from Amazon. Someone swapped out the new version and it was missing connectors. Should have an unopened on Monday. Paid a bit more, but hope it's worth the wait.
@@SPiTFiRe_MV that's the worst when people do stuff like that. I saw on reddit where someone got one from target, had a phone vr and NBA 2k instead of anything psvr. Luckily they were just outside the store and went right back
Finally! A way to get those darn coins in FNAF vr that are all over the place!
Yes! I got this game, meaning to play it during halloween, but it was such a scary month I didn't get around to it. Since then I've heard this game was not well adapted for PSVR tracking so hopefully this will give you the power to get all of them! Lol
exactly
We just recently moved, and I finally have enough space in my room to set up the PSVR I bought a few months ago. Super excited, definitely going to be using this video to help!
Yay Owen! That extra space will make such a difference!
Wow I 98% of this. And it is all very true and makes a huge difference!! Clothes do make a difference!! For women, i have red hair and it can cause issues, thankfully a green light helps counter this.
If you have alot of red in your room, add a green light to your ambient lighting, for beat saber since the colours it uses is red and magenta, i find it helps as well.
Thank you! I didn't think about the hair color that's crazy! This is the product of almost 4 years of troubleshooting mine to get the best experience possible! Lol. Thank you for taking the time to comment and if you're a vr lover like me check out the 1000 subscriber thank you video as we're giving away a bunch of vr gear to thank the community!
I've had a psvr for like 2 yrs now and I am now just finding out that people had problems with the tracking. Ima use these steps just to make it where I can do more stuff in vr, thx g apperciated
You're welcome! 😊 Glad to still be of help a few years later lol
Thanks for these tips. I started getting some serious wobble when playing VR games, and could not figure out how to fix it, it was even giving me some motion sickness. I'll definitely have to change some stuff around in my room to make this setup, seems much better than what I've got now. Thank you!
Thank you and let me know how it goes. Wobble can be a symptom of too much light or too far from the camera so definitely try both. A very small amount of wobble is normal but it shouldn't really be noticeable as your head is never perfectly still anyways. I hope this fixes it all for you :)
Best video i've seen by far in regards to PSVR tracking!
I need that stuffed giraffe, though.
Thank you so much! I got the giraffe at Target. It was like $80, Aaah, but Nat had wished for one all her bdays as a kid and never got one so I knew I had to get it.
@@jaybratt damn 80 bucks for a giraffe
@@xoticvr8008 yeah, it was a lot although it's very solid and huge. She'd wanted one her whole life so it seemed worth it
@@jaybratt wow
Thanks for some really good tips!
For me the carpet solution was the final setup that I haven't thought about. Great stuff!
Thank you! I'm so glad it helped you fine tune that last step!!
I never knew it would be better to to have your camera up high i always had mine close to the floor thanks!
You're welcome. It makes such a big difference because theres less of your body to get in the way. None of this will be a problem with Dunder Mifflin Infinity 2.0...
Wait I mean psvr 2.0
jaybratt thx
Also how am i suppose to mount it on the wall
@@panther535 theres a lot of different ways. 3m velcro straps are great if you don't want to damage the wall. Some people just use push pins. I personally put a screw right through the mount and into the wall but I've even seen duct tape used. It all depends on how pretty or functional you want it to look. At one point I zip tied my camera to a shed door hinge so I could turn it to the best possible play space:

This tracking issue has been plaguing me the entire time I've used psvr, I'm so happy to have found this video
Yay!! Psvr can be tricky but once you get it tuned right it's really not bad as long as you are in the zone and face forward. Let me know how it goes
Wow very informative I didn’t realise how complex correctly setting up the PSVR is, as a disabled person in a wheelchair I’m so glad the quest 2 is relatively painless to set up. (Though using a huge stuffed giraffe to calibrate the tracking is brilliant 😂😂)
I'm glad to be of help Mike! The Quest 2 is much easier to setup. You may find the arm rests on chairs get in the way a bit if you have those but it's easy to learn to work around.
@@jaybratt thanks Jay I will take my wheelchair arms off to see if that improves things
@@mikecoshan3752 I hope it does. My first VR chair I never put the arm rests on to give me more mobility. Then I lost them and when I gave the chair away they were all "where's the arm rests?" 😂
This video could not have been suggested to me at a more perfect time
Oh good! I hope it really helps you :) Hit me up if you have any more questions
You know you have the energy and information, now refine the production and your growth will skyrocket
Thanks to the help of my patreon members I just upgraded to Adobe Premiere Pro, the problem now is I need to learn it lol. Before starting this channel last year I had no background or training in any of this so it's been a huge learning experience. Thank you for the encouragement Bryant!!! :)
Jay I Used To Have PSVR you were the first youtuber I found and now I’m here being a big fan of u😊❤
I have been looking into getting a PSVR so this helps me out and makes me feel like getting it a but faster.
Awesome! They're so fun and once the tracking is tuned it's a blast to play. It still won't be 360 tracking so it may take a bit to teach yourself not to turn around but the price of psvr makes it so approachable over other headsets still. Watch the used markets or for a sale and you can get the full setup for around $200
I have the color changing bulbs. I tried this last night with arizona sunshine and killing floor incursion. I was extemely surprised the difference the green light made. Tracking was perfect.
It's crazy how much the green light does isn't it? Besides camera placement it's probably the single best improvement I've ever seen. I'm so happy to hear this made such a difference for you
@@jaybratt yes, the help is very appreciated! I started to notice the changes after I changed my entire gaming setup. That it was performing badly (specially in creed fight for glory) which is why I decided to look up tips for better tracking. Thanks again and take care during these times.
@@makogiron thank you and you too 😁
I did not watch this when you first posted this because I thought I knew everything. I typically have good tracking except for Moss. But wow, I did not know about #3! And the other ones, seeing it all helped make some of the reflective surface issues click. Thanks so much.
Thank you! I'm so glad it helped you. Theres a few other tips people told me, I added them to the description too. Like leaving the controllers steady when you power them on. Psvr can be such a great experience but it's tough it can take this much work to get it right. Heres to psvr2 being worlds better!
Helps so much. Ur channel underrated and now I can play superhot without glitchy controllers
I'm so glad to hear that G0lden! Thank you! I love Superhot when the tracking works, as I'm sure you could tell if you watched the end of the video hahaha
The best guide on how the tracking works so far, I knew reflections could be a problem, but I really wanted to know how the tracking worked, I used to have a small room with really reflective paint on the wooden walls which made playing VR games nearly impossible, however, since I moved I have a perfect room for VR, or so I thought, even though I can have the camera in a position you can see the floor and ceiling, and basically the ENTIRE room, I still have tracking issues while I make sure that the light isn't being reflected and there's nothing in the way, wich made playing games like Fnaf VR impossible. Now thanks to this video there's a few things I can still check to improve!
Also this is kinda why my PSVR is gathering dust, I like to play VR, but I just hate how much effort it costs to set it up perfectly, I just wanna put the VR headset on and go
Thank you Wilbert! I hear you. The PSVR is not as put on and play as we would like and if you ever go for a Quest you will love that about it. It's really the Nintendo Switch of the VR world. I'm glad to hear this was helpful and I hope it gives you some more life to your PSVR! I personally can't wait to play Hitman in VR in 9 days! Thanks PSVR exclusives lol
My hands usually wobble bad, I am going to try all these tips for sure.
Definitely do it and let me know how it goes!
@@jaybratt worked like a charm! Cheers
Thank you very much, I was looking for somebody with good tips and now thanks to you my tracking is perfect
Yay! I'm so glad to hear it! Enjoy the tracking and hopefully I'll see you around the channel 😁
I didn't know step 7 was needed before I covered my windows. Im glad I did it before hand
You're one step ahead Flare!
@@jaybratt I am 4 parallel universes ahead of this
I love my PSVR but i had just come to accept tracking issues, especially in going low. It really took my experience in fun games like Creed from Great to just Very Good. But just watching you play Superhot tells me these tips are really what i was missing. The camera position in particular is an eye opener. I've had my camera right BELOW my tv because i couldn't get it mounted up top and i figured as long as i was in frame, i was good to go. I'm definitely going to put it high up and give this all another try. Great video, and well edited too!
Thank you so much! This comment really made my night! I wish psvr had launched with a set of tips to help people like this because it can be so much better than everyone thinks! Sadly I don't think even sony knew all this back at launch and weve all had to learn together.
Thank you for the kind words. We're giving away a bunch of VR gear over on the 1000 subscriber thank you video if you wanna get in on that misterkeebler!
Thanks for the tips man.
It's time for me to play PSVR again, since i've been more into Oculus lately.
Saludos desde Guadalajara México.
Welcome back to psvr then. Haha. I play my rift s a lot but every time I come back to psvr I'm always impressed with the comfort and build quality. Sony did something amazing with what they had. Heres to hoping psvr2 is amazing but has perfect tracking out of the box!

Best quote in the video xD!
Thanks! Also thanks for sticking with it that far. I'm glad it was entertaining!
How do you grab stuff?
@@diannedouglas8469 the way the camera is positioned it can see my arms reach even fully extended so I can easily grab anything in my zone in the game if that's what you are asking. If not let me know and I'll answer any other questions I can 😊
your cat is not judging! thanks, I am brand new to VR. this will help me get started with little to no issues.
I'm happy to hear that Angela! My cats love to get in the way if you haven't seen some of the other videos lol. Welcome to the psvr community!
Something I found out at one point was that Christmas lights sends the tracking haywire. Took us a bit before we figured it out, but it perplexed the heck out of my older brother and me. Super glad to hear these tips and explanations though- the red and blue lights on them must’ve been what was messing with it, and I’ll be showing my family these tips later to see what we can do to improve our gameplay!!!
Hey I'm really happy to hear this. I hope it helps you and your family a lot! We cover a lot of vr accessories and psvr gameplay so I hope to see you around the channel in the future! Thank you!!
I like the selfie stick idea. Having my camera 7 ft off the ground helps immensely for most of my games. However it doesn't work well when using the aim controller. In far point, borderlands, and firewall the guns will drift to the side unless I have the camera below my head. I saw a video of someone else mentioning this as a common issue with the aim controller. I'm going to try that selfie stick idea to make the camera mobile. Thanks!
Thank you so much for subscribing! I'm really glad to hear you liked the selfie stick idea! There are a few games that do have better tracking with it lower, beat saber I noticed higher scores when I moved the camera down.
I've played a lot of farpoint though and it seemed good with the high camera, the key I noticed was just not getting too far away. Although the drift can be worse with some aim controllers, I own two and one works much better than the other and almost never drifts. Idk why but I hope gen2 of psvr doesn't have any of these issues 😁
Dude thanks for the tips!! I haven't played my PSVR in awhile due to my tracking problems but with this I'mma hook it back up and play again. Thank God I have the Philip Hue lights as well lol got a good deal at Xmas.
Yes! The phillips hue lights are the best for tracking! I love mine. Get it back out and it will work so much better like this!
I was about to quit playing lol. Cant play on expert with these problems. But I put my camera higher up, re calibrated the head set and now its perfect :)
Great video! thanks for the information
I'm so happy to hear that!!! Welcome back to psvr and it should be much more fun this time around lol
A bit late to the game with this, but all your tips helped massively, thankyou
I'm so happy to hear that Oliver! Thank you!
My friend Jacob always has trouble with is tracking, so I’ll send this video to him. Thanks!
Thank you! It should definitely help if he has some space to set it up like this.
i use a quest 2, so logically i'm going to watch this because it's very helpful for me
Hahaha Fulcrum I love that! It is interesting if you've never had a PSVR to see what helped. Oddly I installed some new LED strips in my garage and they were messing with my Quest 2 tracking terribly so I tried them on Green, fixed it. Something with white interfered with the controllers and if I hadn't known that from PSVR I might have never tried another color.
@@jaybratt Yeah I'm not familiar with a lot of the VR tracking stuff, I just like the simplicity of the Quest. I've used PSVR at my friend's house and it was a great system for it's time but the lack of joysticks really held it back
@@_fulcrum absolutely! The psvr was really cool 5 years ago but tech has moved on and simplified. I'm hoping psvr 2 feels revolutionary but if it's gonna be wired I worry it'll be DOA
I really appreciate this upload. I just got an Everybody Golf/Blood and Truth bundle on clearance, and so far I'm loving it.
Hey welcome to the PSVR family! It's so much fun and you have a lot of great experiences ahead of you! As long as you get the tracking set up it will rarely get in the way also.
I use a projector as no TV for my PS4 , but ya thanks for your help as going to try this way as cables every were
Let me know how it goes. Getting the cables out of the way makes such a huge difference!
@@jaybratt , definitely do that , thanks again

This psvr video has been a big hit when I shared it a few places. Feel free to share wherever and thank you so much for your continued support. You rock!!
Here’s an idea for you if your cables in the way put a piece of extra clothing over the cable like a dressing gown/robe around your cable and the cable will stop getting in the way
Nice! I should mention this to the person who said the cable kept getting caught in their butt cheeks lol
The selfie stick is a genius idea!! 👏👏
I'm so glad this video is still helping people like 4 years later :D
Pretty good tips. Can't wait to try the wall mounting and green light thing. I've always wondered how you are supposed to mount the camera on top of a flat screen tv. That never really made sense to me.
Yeah that camera mount is not well designed for any tv! It works way better as a swivel wall mount. Maybe Sony just didn't want to be telling kids to put holes in their walls? Lol
This video is so helpful I just got psvr and omg thank you

Don’t forget to use different colors! Your double pink remotes might look cool, but if the colors are similar it could mess it up, use different colors that are decently away from each other on the color wheel, like pink and blue,
It's always chosen them for me. Is there a way to switch it manually? That would be news to me lol
My man is goated on the super hot sticks
Haha yes!
Man that cable hanging thing. You genius. I've thought about having the cable above me but damn those keyring zip string things. Such a good idea.
Awww thanks Bumblefreak, I can't fully claim the idea, I had inspiration from a lot of random places including a retro lamp I had with a long arm that made it stick out from behind the couch to the center of the room. The keyring zip things are also from another VR Cable kit: th-cam.com/video/Z31D_2GW3F0/w-d-xo.html

This video should be called: 10 Steps To Get Perfect PSVR Dick Shots.
@@ThaBEN_NL it was the ultimate goal from the start lol
Great video man, it upped my super hot game big time. Thanks!
Thank you! I'm so glad to hear that. Superhot is so incredible when your tracking works.
Thank you for that info. I've been looking for ways to improve tracking. The green lighting idea is brilliant.
Thank you for watching! This is years of figuring it out and reading so I hope it can help others have the awesome psvr experiences I've had!
This was really good, man. Putting the camera up high is fine advice. I'm embarrassed i didn't think of it myself...
Thank you Micah! This was years of PSVR battles to figure all this out so no embarrassment lol
@@jaybratt i just got mine a few days ago. I only noticed the volume control this morning lol
@@micahfoley9572 oh yeah, you're way ahead of the curve lol
Finally I can beat the crap out of red guys with *peace of mind*
Destroy the red men with confidence! Haha
Good collection of tracking information ive seen all over the place, but never in one place.
The info frank gave (which came from someone’s writeup) was wayyy more complicated than your version. I would use his setup guide.
Thank you! I wanted it all to be together so people could do it once and enjoy psvr to its fullest!
When you say use his guide? Who do you mean, frank or the guy that frank got the info from?
@@jaybratt They guy frank first got the guide from. It's basically the same info, Frank just made it "simpler" to follow (video guide definitely helps) compared to the paper. I didnt notice an improvement tbh but I never had a problem other than what is inherent in a light based system and controllers occluding each other (changing player position to the camera in some games helps).
I play expert on best Saber and I feel like I can't get any higher because of tracking, this helped a lot thank you!
I'm glad to hear that Ashie! Beat saber multiplayer on PSVR should be out soon, you gonna come play with us?
@@jaybratt heck yeah! By the way, we had a lamp on behind us and once we turned it off the tracking improved immensely! I was getting so mad when the tracking was off! 😂
Wow! This was so helpful.
I especially appreciated the selfie stick trick, mat hack, and green light tip.
Now I gotta find me a fluffy giraffe...
Overall, Great tips. You clearly are sharing from personal experience and past struggles.
Aww thanks Andrea! Yes almost 4 years of troubleshooting, discussions on reddit, and personal struggles to get just the right setup lol. Welcome and I'll hopefully see you around the channel :)
Love that most of these steps are super quick and easy! Thanks for this video!
Thanks! It's quick and easy and can save so much frustration. VR is supposed to be relaxing.. except maybe the whole horror genre...
Finally, I can now play gun club without the gun glitch and point at my head.
Yes! I haven't checked out gun club yet. Does it seem pretty true to real life shooting?
@@jaybratt I heard it's pretty fun, the two handed gun's are a little glitchy but it is still well worth the money.
The realism is also pretty nice.
@@storsoldatapemann6594 nice I'll check it out!! Also... boppita boopi...

Was having crazy arms/ tracking issues with the move controllers on Rush of Blood. I am doing the hard system calibration and using the LED lighting on green for when we play! Great tips and great execution, cool channel. Thanks! ☆
Hi Luna! I'm sorry to hear you were having issues but I'm really glad this helped!!! Rush of Blood is awesome but theres one level that was super awful for me personally lol. I won't spoil it but once you get there I'm sure you'll be able to guess what it was
Ah! The TV in the room its in has led's around it and its usually set to purple by default! Now I know to change it to green before I play! Thank you!
You're welcome! I just got LEDs around my tv too! They're so cool!
Super helpful! Thank you so much for making this video.
I'm so glad it's been helpful. I just want everyone to have a good experience and sadly many psvr players have missed out on that. Thank you!!!
My room is so tiny that I can’t even spread my arms all the way out without touching at least one wall and my camera is just haphazardly placed on top of my tv, my tracking is hopeless anyway
Yeah thats a small space. In that case I would recommend sitting for all vr so you don't get into trouble. Nothing quite like punching a wall in vr!
@@jaybratt Say that to the one hole in my wall and my messed up knuckle lmao
@@iveneverlostapistolround ouch! At least it was a wall you could break. My buddy lives on a basement apartment and the walls are concrete, much less forgiving! If you've never checked out the subreddit ERtoVR, it's got some terrible vr mishaps, like punching through a ceiling light
Comet The Fox I have a really tiny room too, and I taped my camera pretty high up on my wall and it worked really well!
@@jaybratt ouch man sounds awful. Nonetheless your video will save my hands from complete annihilation so thanks for the time and effort lad
I just got my psvr today! And i watched your videos and the tracking is wonderful!! I hope you get to 10 mil❤
Wow thank you so much!!! That's a lofty goal but with all the support we've had from the community this first year Anything is possible 😊
cheers man very helpful managed to strategcally balance my camera on a painting XD great video very useful
Haha nice! That's honestly a new one, I don't think anyone has mentioned that. I hope you don't have a cat lol. Well done!
@@jaybratt haha cheers i got two cats both very fat and lazy so i should be safe 🙏
@@lucachatterton1686 perfect! Lol
Psvr is amazing :) great vid bro
Thanks! Psvr is way better than it gets credit for. Yeah its aging but when you can find full bundles for less than $200 now that's a crazy low price of entry for this level of VR. If you haven't subscribed I make a lot of psvr content and will be dropping a best accessories for it in the coming week! Thanks again
@@jaybratt it's great I love mine it's worth every single penny cant wait for psvr 2
@@swavezmartin same. If sony can knock it out of the park they'll solidify their place in the vr realm. Already they've got the most headsets sold by far!
@@jaybratt yes bro it definitely rocks all my friends love mine
"You usually put them on the ground, and then they're gone."
Idk why but I'm dead laughing rn 🤣🤣
Just straight up ghost controllers! Lol
Thank you for the help. Going to go buy green bulbs tomorrow. Subscribed
Thank you so much! Let me know how the green lights do for you. I personally think they're one of the biggest improvements for me
Great guide Iam using it today. Still usefull. Hope my vr experience is awesome!
All these years later!! That's awesome!
@@jaybratt any games or Blu-ray in 2024 that u recommended with your expertise
Wow my tracking is insanely better just because I moved my camera high enough
Yay!! I'm so glad. It makes a huge difference!
@@jaybratt like literally increases the range of what it can see to literally a meter above my head and actually sees the floor
@@MattiesGaming what a difference it makes right? I wish sony would've put some steps like these in setup because so many people would've enjoyed their psvr more! If you haven't subscribed I do a lot of vr content and I include psvr because too many vr channels don't so definitely consider it and hangout with us 😁
@@jaybratt Ok I will sub anything to make my tracking better lol even though it is good
@@MattiesGaming thank you and welcome! With the name battsie I'm guessing you've played Arkham VR? Probably my favorite launch title from psvr.
A very helpful video thanks m8
Thank you! I'm so glad its helped people. Psvr can be so fun when you're not fighting with it! I've got a psvr accessory video and a 750 giveaway coming up so feel free to subscribe and hang out. Thank you!
I don't have a PSVR. I still watched it all the way through.
Well you're Awesome Isabelle, thank you!!!
