The two virtual reality headsets that I am comparing are the Oculus Rift S and the PlayStation VR2.

When it comes to specs, the Oculus Rift S has a wider field of view at 115° while the PlayStation VR2 has a narrower 110° field of view. In terms of resolution, the Oculus Rift S is more advanced as it offers 2560×1440 px resolution compared to 2000x2040 px on the PlayStation VR2. The refresh rate also favors the Oculus Rift S which offers 80 Hz while the PlayStation VR2 only offers 120 Hz. The minimum CPU required for use with an Oculus Rift S is an Intel i3-6100/AMD Ryzen 3 1200, FX4350 or greater and for graphics Nvidia GTX 1050Ti/AMD Radeon RX 470 or greater; whereas for Playstation VR2 all you need is your Playstation console.

For room scale tracking both offer this feature with Oculus Rift S providing 360 tracking capabilities allowing users to move around freely in their virtual environment and interact with it in a more natural way than other headsets. This feature may be particularly useful in gaming scenarios where mobility and spatial awareness is key to success. However, there’s no denying that for casual gamers this may not be quite so relevant since many games won’t require such extensive movements anyway. On top of that, some find that too much movement can cause motion sickness when using certain types of content on virtual reality headsets so this isn’t always seen as a plus either way!

Overall both headsets have great specifications but if you have access to a PC capable enough to run an Oculus Rift then that would be my preference due mainly to its higher refresh rate and resolution offering improved visuals over its competitor - though admittedly both are still very good and represent excellent value for money when compared against rivals within the same price range. Both do offer some advantages over one another but depending on your needs one may fit better than another; however overall I would give my personal preference towards the Oculus Rifft S purely based on those extra features mentioned above alone making it arguably superior in certain areas when taking into account all specs side by side!
