The PSVR isn't much of a bargain when it comes to how much you're expected to shell out for the full experience.

Not only do you have to pick up the Playstation Camera separately to the main headset if you actually want to get your PSVR up and running, but the "optional" Move controllers are also more or less mandatory if you want to play the best experiences the console currently has to offer.

Which would be fine, if the price for this six-year-old tech didn't skyrocket in the run up the PSVR's release. While you could pick up these controllers for as cheap as £8 a few months ago, now you'll be expected to shell out £40 a pop for each of these peripherals - and that's if you can actually find them in stores.

They're probably worth the price considering most of the best games utilise them, but they certainly don't make you feel any better about the already steep price of entry to the world of VR.
