    Unique experience and fun game to play with your family. The music is excellent and i'm looking forward for the next batch of songs and beats. Would love to see some hit songs on Beat Saber. The calibration on the PS4 Move and Headseat work perfectly.

    I'm sweating, sprained my wrist, hit a table with my hand... and I love it! It's so responsive and intuitive. You just follow the beat and cut the blocks with your light sabers.

    I would just wish they add more rock songs. Dubstep isn't really my thing and I would appreciate more variety. I hope they release song DLCs quickly. Either way Beat Saber is a VR showcase.

    I'd equate this to "DDR but with your hands". The game is very fun and one of the best for any VR system. It also is one of the least taxing VR games, I think, in terms of motion sickness. It makes great use of only requiring the player to look forward for the game itself. There's not a ton of head sway involved. Most interaction comes from moving your hands.

Very accessible game for all ages and types of players. I got this game for free with my PSVR, but I would’ve bought it as a stand-alone if it didn’t come with it. I also played the DLC, which was enjoyable, and the campaign of the main game provided a fun little expansion as well. The controls are tight and the PS Move controllers work very well with the game. My only complaints are that party mode makes no sense (only one VR at a time?) and that there aren’t enough songs (30-40, Depending on if you get DLC). Once they add more songs, perhaps it will be even better; amazing game as it is though.… Expand

I thought originally the fact that there was no licensed songs would make the game not so great compared to all the PC videos I've seen with modded songs.

Almost every PSVR game I have had enough interest to research and I look up on MetaCritic will have reviews from users saying, "THIS IS THE BEST VR GAME I'VE PLAYED YET!1!!1" I am an optimist and have purchased some real stinkers because of this sentiment.

    As for Beat Saber, I bought into the hype for it between seeing videos of folks playing the pc version, and reading comments from people on Reddit giving it incredibly glowing rave reviews. I'm not going to skewer it too much, as for what it is, it is well crafted and intuitive. However, if there were a demo for it with a single lever, I think that would truly be enough to go around for those who are interested in this game.

    The music in it isn't that great, as someone who plays drums and loves a wide variety of music, I find that the actual rhythm/block correlations don't make a ton of sense -- I found it almost more fun to play with the music turned down low or off. I thought it might be similar to Thumper, where the music will ramp up as you successfully perform the correct actions, making it more immersive. No, the music will play unaltered regardless of what you're doing. I think that's boring. There isn't much variety in the gameplay after you spend a half hour playing it, the shapes are all the same (cubes) -- thus far in my play through, I don't expect them to change -- as you progress through the campaign it simply ramps up the level of precision required to complete a level, and limits the amount of mistakes you can make. I think for some folks this would be addictive, but I found it a bit monotonous. Maybe if guitar hero is your thing you'll like this a lot.

    I think I am doing a noble deed by letting you know that Beat Saber for PS4 truly is overrated and that you should wait for it to be less than $15. Sounds like on PC there are mods that make it way better, but on ps4 it is quite vanilla and if you find that this is the "BEST VR GAME EVER!" - then you need to try some other games out, because that is a pretty bold statement.

    I really want to love this game, and part of me does. But the lack of genre variations cripples this game to a horrible degree. Unless you like one specific genre of ear splitting aggressive techno, you will hate this.

I also didn't like the inaccuracy of the scoring system. I would do a song feeling I did amazing, I even would hit more notes. Yet my score came out lower.
    Clearly the game requires lots of practice, hundreds of hours possibly. I personally had no problem getting from Easy to Hard, but the bridge from Hard to Expert is off compared to the training to get to Hard. I feel it just falls into the same issues Guitar Hero has because it's such a jump.
    Lastly, I have to say, the PSVR Tracking doesn't do this game any favour either. Lots of issues with that.
    I really was expecting the experience I saw from PC players, but the difference is night and day.

    So the new Fallout Boy pack really mixes things up for Beat Saber with some new arc moves whichthat are soooooooooooooo satisfying to pull off. On some cubes an arc will appear connecting it to the next one and you have to follow it around with your saber.

    Music's great as well. Nice to see fresh content coming out on a regular basis, even new concepts on how to play.

    I'm more of a "wrist" player because the PS4 tracking camera is barely functional and this new pack makes you perform wide arcing motions. Again, feels just so good to do.    … Expand

    Best VR game ever made. I just LOVE Beat Saber. I bought this game because everyone was saying it's the best VR game. Played it for 30 minutes, I was sweating so much but i really enjoyed it. Now i have like 20 hours on Beat Saber and still love it. Borrowed it to my grandma, brother and mom and they enjoyed it too. 10/10 VR game for me but it would be better if there would be custom songsBest VR game ever made. I just LOVE Beat Saber.

    Really fun to play on VR, a really down for the game is the cost of the new musics

    Fantastic video game! Super fun as exciting and, above all, fascinating.
    Kudos to the developers for hunting this pearl in an increasingly barren market. Well done!

    A good session with Beat Saber literally leaves me breathless. When I’m in the groove, swinging red and blue sabers to precisely bisect an onslaught of incoming boxes as fast as I can might be as close to the feeling of being a Jedi at a rave as I’ll ever come. This challenging rhythm game is definitely a little light on tracks out of the box, but what’s there is both catchy and highly replayable due to the way its scoring system encourages pinpoint accuracy and followthrough, plus a handful of alternate modes to play them on.

    Anyone can play and look cool with this instant-classic VR rhythm game. The PS4 version is great, but the PSVR exclusive content does not offer that much appeal.

    Regardless of the platform (PC or PS4) Beat Saber is one of the best VR games ever created. I know that slashing flying cubes with lightsabers might not sound like much fun, but believe me that it is, in no small part thanks to the fact that your movements are recreated in the virtual world perfectly.
