Rift is targeting $300, isn't it? That's nowhere remotely NEAR mass consumer friendly.

I expect Sony to target the console audience here: a group that accepts lower quality hardware for a more reasonable price.

I doubt it, I think they will target pretty high end and will be marketed as a luxury peripheral rather than going for mass market.  There's no point in targeting low quality in this kind of device; nobody would enjoy it at any price.

If they do a massive production of it, they can make it cheaper than Rift. I'll pay up to 100$ not more.

It's just stupid to price a gimmick gadget for more than half the console price --''  So 200$+ it would be stupid.

Just Pulse headsets sold for up to $150.

Rockband sets were $170.

There's no way a VR headset will be $100.  I expect $250/300.  At least I expect it'll be totally optional, not some albatross Kinect or Game Pad.

If they priced that way I don't think it will sell good at all. I won't going to purchase it at all ~

But yeah, you made a great point with the price of those headsets.
