sony's tech will be better ("OR killing") for the simple fact it's sony and not some hohum little startup with no confirmed developer support. if sony puts 1 game on the thing it will already be better than OR. seriously,.. sony, nintendo, and MS are the only three that could possibly pull this off.
"There’s also no pressure on developers from platform holder Sony to adopt the tech; indeed, the studios we spoke to were excited by the technology, but questioned its viability as a platform."
i'm glad they aren't pressuring developers. that will foster good developer relationships. i do hope sony gets this in the hands of indies as they are more likely to take the risk to develop something unique for it. ..but i also question the viability of this. sony NEEDS to bring their "wii sports" to the reveal. if this doesn't get amazing press from day 1 it will flop. sony needs positive word of mouth on their side,.. this will be impossible to advertise their way to customer acceptance.

No confirmed developer support?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_games_with_Oculus_Rift_support
That looks like a lot more than none, some of which are already available with Rift support on PC. That's already a lot more than Sony have at present

thumbed throw the list. a lot of those have already been confirmed for ps4 with or without VR support. the witness, war thunder, wander, strike suit zero, minecraft, everquest, daylight, star citizen, routine (probably), QUBE, project cars.

Didn't say they haven't, but a lot of those games support OR already so devs support is there and the two VR products will probably complement each other (especially with Indies).
I can tell you from experience that playing War Thunder normally and playing in VR is a completely different experience. The level of immersion with OR was beyond anything I could have expected.
