PlayStation VR Worlds is a decent collection of demos that you probably want to own as they’re an excellent way to show off VR. It’s such a pity that these experiences, as much potential as they show, are too brief to be worthwhile.

Here's hoping the better two games get standalone releases for cheap, because they're good
Unwisely, Sony has decided to charge for a pack of five tech demos.
