The box doesn't include VR Worlds - do I need that? Is that the thing with the shark tank thingy?
I got mine with the starter pack, and might have felt a bit let down if I'd bought it.
Which isn't to say it's not great fun - it really is, for an hour or two, but I can't see me coming back to this except to show it off. It's basically 5 minigames - some of which (like the shark one) don't involve much interaction.
The shark one was actually pretty terrifying - it's fun to watch people shriek and duck out of the way, and embarrassing when you do it yourself.
The best one is a sort of interactive film / occasional shooting game called London Heist. It was a bit of a hoot; watching the other half leaping and ducking away from bullets, or spend ages trying to light a virtual cigar. And I nearly careered headlong through the front window trying to grab a weapon I thought I could reach. But again, it feels like a demo lasting maybe 20-30 minutes, I'd guess and it's sort of a one shot thing. Could have made a decent full game, though.
The rest of them are fun enough for a minutes, but that's all, I'd say
