"looks awesome" is 100% opposite of what I was thinking. It looks like a massive waste of money.

At that price sure it is a waste of money, but if they can make it cheap (200 $/€) in 2-3 years then they can count me in.

That and a wiimote/move and we will be one step closer to VR.

Its not just the price. Its the head trap combined with being tethered to a box... craptastic.

Mass consumers don't want to buy the current 3D glasses.. that are just glasses, yet they'll want this head gear? lol no.

But these are not only 3d glasses. You don't need a new TV for it as they have their own sreens (which gives you the impression seeing a really big screen with 5.1 audio).

Yes, they are cumbersome and not very nice looking, but what matters is what they do, and if they can do what Sony claims then they will be something awesome, in 2-3 years with a much lower price (and hopefully with better aesthetics).
