For finally admitting what? That has been my stated position from the get-go!

That you've never really tried it yet.

What are you talking about? I've tried it plenty. I've spent dozens of hours playing VR in the past couple years alone. Just because I don't think it's worth the price, and don't own it doesn't mean I don't have access to it. When I made video games we had a VR Room with Oculus Rift and HTC Vive units and were actually required to use them and get acquainted with them, to understand their limitations and then get together and pitch gameplay ideas for a project. I have a friend that loves his PSVR more than pretty much anything gaming related, and he's always getting me to try out new games he picks up every time I'm over there. I've tried RIGS, Farpoint, Dirt Rally, Gran Turismo Sport, the XWing Demo, Job Simulator, and a few others, including the disc that came with the unit. I've spent at least an hour, if not more on each. He even got the updated headset for the HDR passthrough and offered to sell me his old one for the trade in price. He let borrow it for the weekend, and I spent the better part of it putting it through its paces in my living room and giving it a fair shot.

At the end of it, I could have gotten a well cared for used PSVR for $150. I Passed.
