I would greatly appreciate if this would spur Sony into doing a temp price drop on the psvr, as I really want to dip my toes into the VR Waters and don't have the PC necessary to run any decent rift games. Re7 and doom on psvr look exciting.

 

I doubt it will happen soon, though, rift has to make up a decent bit of ground at the moment.

I totally agree.  They have had good sales apparently, but with this temporary pricecut, we may see sales slowing down considerably, well for users with both PS4's and PC's.  In any case, the price hasn't shifted much in the last 9 months...in the UK it's around £299 at the moment.  I fully expect both the PS4, PS4Pro and PSVR getting pricecuts later this year...so it would be nice to see PSVR even getting a temporary pricecut to £199 around Black Friday.....I think that would be enough for people to push the button in the run up to Xmas.  I may even do it at that point.
