Okay. Got my PSVR the Saturday after it came out. Still use it all of the time. Here's what I own:

PlayStation VR Worlds: Great little showcase of what the hardware can do. Something for everyone. I repeatedly go back and play London Heist, Ocean Descent, and Danger Ball. Haven't really tried the rest. Street Luge is underwhelming.

All games on this disc sport high production value and gives you a good taste of how immersive VR can be. Even the menu screens have given me several minutes of fun interacting with something that isn't really there. Your mind tricks you into thinking something is really in front of you! Your mileage may vary, though. The games are all quite short, based on my experience.

Here They Lie: I heard good things about it so I bought it. Scary as heck despite the fact that absolutely nothing has happened during my first 30 or so minutes of play. Looking forward to giving this game some time. It's the only one that made me feel kinda motion sick. I was already feeling ill that morning, though.

Bound: Looks good in VR despite being a third person experience. I need to play it more to give an actual informed opinion.

The Playroom VR: I've almost ignored this game because it was free. At the behest is others, I went back and gave it a try. So far, it's outstanding! I can see this one getting a lot of mileage. The platforming game is so addicting and feels really fresh. Can't wait to see what others can do with a game in the same vein.

Batman Arkham VR: my favorite experience. Hopefully nobody spoils the story or the puzzles because this game should be experienced blindly. Lots of surprises, lots of Easter eggs, and details. The main story is short but when that's done, there's plenty to mess around with.

Until Dawn: Rush of Blood: Didn't really like the premise but upon playing it, it has really won me over. You look at your hands and see guns--and it feels like your really holding them! From there in, it's just "point and shoot" but unlike most rail shooters, you feel like you're present in that world. Graphics could be better but you can't go wrong with this "must play"

Aside from that, I've played with some VR cinematic experiences like Alumette and Invasion. Fun to watch and gets me excited about what a Heavy Rain styled game could be.

I've also played with the VR video apps. Watching 360 videos is okay, I guess. They don't offer anywhere near the satisfaction of an actual 3D world. Your mind isn't fooled with any of these. Still worth checking out but keep your expectations low.
