Eh I was kinda all over the place in that, agreed.  I think focusing on the PS4's VR experience is in their best interest.  However, I don't think releasing adriver set for PC impacts their PS4 sales much (if at all).  Granted I'm just guessing here so take with a grain of salt.  But, I think they'd be missing out on more PSVR sales, than they would be gaining PS4 owners.  If that makes sense.

But, I think saying this, and then intentionally holding the PC drivers back to try and force people who don't want a PS4, to buy one, is a dick move, yes.  But, it's their platform, they can do what they want.  I just think it's more consumer fiendly to open a display peripheral up to the wider audience.  Imo.

Yes, I agree in the long run it wouldn't hurt PS4 sales but Sony will want (or hope) PSVR eventually becomes another reason to own a PS4. It's exactly the same situation MS find themselves in with Window 10 games and the dwindling XB1 exclusives list. Perception is everything and Sony will want the two pieces of hardware tied together for a good while. And they're not 'forcing' anyone to buy a PS4, they're offering a cheaper alternative.

That depends entirely.  For a smart consumer, their PC could be at a VR ready level, simply by smart upgrading over time.  But, spending $800, when it only has to be $400...isn't exactly cheaper.  You know?  I mean, if that's the case, may as well just save up a little more and buy the OR.

Either way, I do hope they release PC Drivers sooner than later.  :)
