That's not even mentioning VR. If that takes off, PS4 is going to be the place the mainstream goes. Instead of paying $1500+ for a headset and PC to run the games, you can get a PS4+PSVR for possibly $599-$649 this holiday season. That's $100+ less than a PC VR headset.

I could just wait for the next headset refinement and price change as well as library build up for either of the two PC VR headsets and still keep my already VR ready PC which saves me money in the longrun. OR from their store costs $600 and will go down in price with time, meanwhile you can spend $500-600 without going over the silly $1500-2000 price via choosing components that aren't overpriced. Sites like PC parts picker allow you to see what parts cost what against others along with which vendors sell for the most or cheapest.

I don't see why PC players should drop everything and go for PSVR rather than being patient as well as using their rigs that are VR ready and just waiting for the library to build up and VR in general to prove itself.

You may want to reread what I wrote. Nowhere did I imply PC gamers are going to drop their PCs in favor of PS VR. Though, if Sony makes it PC compatible, they wouldn't have to anyway. No, what I said was the mainstream gaming audience. The ones that don't have powerful rigs to run VR. Nor want to spend the money upgrading theirs or buying a new one. They are the type who would more likely choose PS VR because of ease of use and affordability.
