Crusty VR Rentals

Overview:

At Crusty VR Rentals, they rarely clean or maintain their equipment. Why? Because they say it adds to the experience. After all, do you expect aliens and zombies to smell good? We didn’t think so.

Top Dollar VR Equipment Los Angeles

Overview:

Their gear isn’t more advanced and their service is pretty average, so what is it that makes Top Dollar VR Equipment Los Angeles so good? It’s because they follow the time-honored LA tradition of drastically overcharging for stuff just to make it seem more exclusive. And it works! We just hope you’re rich enough to afford it.

“The VR was so realistic with tracking our movements we felt that we left the green room we walked into and popped into the abandoned mansion.”

It’s not just one of the most iconic locations in LA; this hundred-year-old pier is also one of the most photographed spots in the world.

Disneyland

We’re guessing Disneyland doesn’t need an introduction. It’s the incredibly popular theme park inspired by the beloved media company. But while the park now has locations all over the world, the California location is still the first – and the only one that was built by Mr. Walt Disney himself.

Staples Center

The Los Angeles Lakers are one of the most popular sports teams in the world, and their home court is a cultural phenomenon in its own right. That’s because of the famous fans that show up to cheer the team on from their courtside seats. If you’re not in LA – or just can’t afford a ticket – taking in the scene through VR is the next best thing.

Hollywood Sign

Nothing says Hollywood like the Hollywood sign. For one, it literally says Hollywood. But also, those nine white letters on Mt. Lee make for one of the most recognizable landmarks in the area – or even the country. You could hike up there to check it out yourself… or you could just see it in VR.
