There are some cons, though.

I found 2 things that I could say are negatives about the PS VR.  One was motion sickness.  Now, in games where you mostly are still, like Moss, Headmaster, and Kitchen, I felt none.  In games where you move slower, like AB:RM and Battle Zone (the cockpit view is really cool), I didn't really experience any, either.  However, I did try Thumper and Wipeout, and I definitely got motion sickness from playing them for just a min or two.  Fast motions are just not great in VR.  This may be different for some. 

When i played Thumber i didn't get sick at all. To my surprise. When i tried the Drive Club VR demo however my eyes criss crossed and headache started almost immediatly. I think i didn't even start driving.

I'm excited for PSVR2, but tbh i would like to jump right to third or forth generation. Dont care much for tethered vs. untethered. More for FOV, resolution, eye tracking. Those are far more important when it comes to preventing motion sickness and ensuring comfortable VR experiences.

Fortunately, PSVR2 is supposed to bring improvements in all 3 of those areas. It's supposed to be roughly twice the resolution, so 1440p. The FOV is going to go from 100° to 120°. And it's supposed to introduce eye tracking for PSVR. 3rd gen will definitely be better, but I think 2nd gen will be a great improvement on a pretty piece of kit.
