the $400 ($600 with camera and move controllers) peripheral sells nearly 2 million units in less than a year and dudes who've never actually given VR a chance are still coming out of the woodworks to downplay and spew salt all over the thread in regards to a brand new way to play games. I really don't get it lol, what, besides fanboy bias, makes all of you so mad and upset about such a thing? boggles the mind.
I bought a PSVR in November of last year without ever trying VR prior to that, and it ended up being EASILY one of the best purchases I've made. Resident Evil 7, Farpoint, Superhot, Rush of Blood, Batman Arkham VR, PSVR Worlds, the upcoming horror game The Inpatient which is a fucking prequel to an awesome game known as Until Dawn, Gran Turismo Sport, Bravo Team and a shit ton of other games releasing every week and in the near future. It's fucking sick, everyone I've introduced to VR has been blown away, to family members who are toddlers all the way to fucking grown ass adults and multiple friends of mine, have had their minds blown. PSVR at the VERY LEAST will sell well over 10 million units before the next version of the headset releases years from now. Good shit |
It is $400 with camera now, I believe. Move controllers are available for about $75 a pair, or maybe $50 used. There's also a $500 bundle with games.
Regardless of pricing, it has become clear to me that VR is not taking off as well as many people hoped, myself included. I think we're still several years away from the value proposition working for the mass market.

1. Its $400 with the camera as of a few days ago when it was announced at TGS so that factors into nothing I said
2. I paid over $600 for the PSVR Move controller and camera bundle so there's that
3. I have no idea what you or "many people" hoped it would sell in less than a year at the insane price its at and with the stock issues it had for the first couple months, but me and other sane people, and Sony themselves, expected a slow but steady start with sales accelerating as more games release for the system, and thats what is happening and the proof is all there.
