half agree.  i think some of the experiences look interesting but interesting in the way that those projector games that sometimes appear at the mall are interesting.  for free i'd love to spend a some time playing them but getting me to drop even $300 is a pretty tall order right now.  for $800 absolutly forget about it,.. there are way better things i could spent my money on that a technology that has a high chance of dying (read as unsupported) just days after a failed launch.

Don't lie ... if Sony opened up to allowing Porn, you'd drop $299 without a flinch.

porn will come to psvr via the web browser just like you can already get porn via the web browser.  i'd probably see what vr porn is like if i had vr but i won't drop $300 on vr in the hopes i like vr porn.  too much money and i honestly don't care much for pov porn.

I just don't get people knocking the price .. A 64GB iPhone cost $749 off contract.., A single phone.. This is a headset, 2 controllers and room sensors.. The Headset has a lot of TECH in it... Right now.. A Samsung S6 plus Gear VR actually cost $749 also.. So a significantly inferior experience (no body tracking) cost about the same..

HTC Vive and the Oculus Rift will have significantly more use cases then the PS VR will. PS VR will be a gaming device and that's about it. The Vive and Rift are already being used in medical, engineering, and other scientific fields.. and this will only grow.. I agree. The PS VR will likely be the widely more used VR.. the "consumer" VR.. But it will not offer the best experience.. PS VR could still fail. I agree that pricing needs to be $299-$399 at most.. hopefully it will be.. more PS4 pricing mentality, and not PS3 lol.

because it is $800.  because unlike i phone who the fuck knows if vr will be the next great thing or an overpriced paper weight.  i mean,.. show me the list of exclusive games coming to these devices.  hell, show me the list of any games coming to these devices.  show me the list of supported services and how those services are better in vr than not in vr.  show me any fucking reason why i should spend $800 that isn't summarized as "imagine the possibilities" because nintendo burned me the fuck out on that line of broken promises.

with a phone the applications and features are already established.  vr is a gamble.
