Best thing I ever did he plays it so much that it's like do a pe work out. Especially on gorilla tag. Arms fly everywhere. Just make sure you have a big space for them to play or you will be ducking and diving lol

@one12man my son plays this all the time.. the excitement is hilarious... I love watching him... better than any work out..

@jeanine1994 he says it's better than doing pe at school you get move of a work out on that oculus x

My son has the oculus quest 2, but I would recommend getting a better strap as it’s not very good and hurts his head

What’s the main differences between the quest 2 and 3?? My boy got the 2 last Xmas and we’re debating whether to upgrade to the 3 this Xmas. It’s played with daily in our house so I know it won’t be money wasted.

My son had the PlayStation VR and it was a faff with wires and cameras so we got a Quest and it’s amazing

If they're prone to travel sickness, don't do it!
I don't get travel sick, but felt sick after using one for 10 minutes (occulus)

I've got my almost 13 year old son the Oculus quest 2 for Christmas this year

I just brought my son the meta quest 2. It’s brilliant. He loves it

Oculus Quest 2 is £249 in argos at the moment
It’s great -they don’t use it constantly so if he wants one I’d recommend it
Our son was 8 when he got his x

I don’t normally comment things like this, but I have researched so much as my son is desperate for one. It’s really not recommended at this age. Do your own research, make your own mind up on facts rather than opinions, just because somebody else’s child was ok doesn’t mean yours will be. In my opinion, my sons health is way more important than a VR headset. Xxx
