In my first comment I said it shows 'slithers of arrogant Sony' and in my second I said 'lead to a path' I'm going to assume English is your first language so you might have just made a mistake. I did not say this product is arrogance I said it seems like it could lead to arrogant Sony where they can release these high end devices with cool tech that people don't really know about and expect people to buy because it's Playstation.

Using a brand to release products isn't a bad thing. But for example Apple Earpods are stupid devices and cost a lot and are an only alternative they have made for headphone users and doing that is arrogant expecting people to buy. I'm not saying it's the same as what Sony is doing here I'm just saying this COULD lead to a dark road.

PS3 was great technology, and actually was well priced given the cost of a blu ray player, but it was very expensive nonetheless and they expected people to buy because it's Playstation.


tl;dr. I'm not saying it's arrogant, it seems a little weird to have a product cost this much with a tech term most people haven't heard of and expect people to buy it.

I understood what you meant. I still don't agree nor see why arrogance should be brought up in any way. The way I see it, you're stretching it. You see something and imagine a scenario because you want to see it, or have a predisposition, for one reason or an other, to see them in this way. Not because there's anything there pointing towards them maybe eventually becoming arrogant. 

This headset is a premium one by them. It isn't mandatory, it isn't forced on consumers, you can still use plenty of other alternatives. There's simply no arrogance whatsoever there.

I have no predisposition against Sony. I'm a huge Sony fan, never bought any other consoles (except play nintendo consoles at friends houses). I hope they succeed next gen as much as they have this gen and so on and so on. 

I dunno this just rubbed me weirdly, just as if I can see them coming out with some odd stuff based on strange tech at a high price :) This isn't something that they would've made last gen for this much. (inb4 a PS3 headset for the same price with some new audio tech at the time gets linked to me and I have to take that back)
