Oculus Rift + Facebook + steam machine VS Project Morpheus + PSN + PS4. Which has mass market appeal?

The real money of VR does not lie in gaming. Sony would be amiss if they left out the casual markets- that don't purchase gaming consoles. (As well as the sciences, and wherever else VR is applicable).

Yeah people dont realize how massive things like VR tourism, VR cross country or international meetings, etc are going to be.

If done right VR has the potential to change everything.

Well said. I'm just waiting for other companies, like Samsung and Microsoft, to reveal their own devices. But at this point: Facebook vs. Sony ... yeah it can end pretty badly.
