It's nice to hear people like the product. I'm not bagging on it, I'm sure Sony is not treating it as a gimmick for this generation, but I just not willing to pay the money to be their beta tester. They will most surely produce a more complete product the second time around. My opinion is based on AMD's 2019 CES press release. I think it will foreshadow a lot of the tech the PS5 potential will have and how VR will be a much better experience with their next generation GPU architecture. PSVR is one of the key things where Sony can truly differentiate itself from the rest of the x86 gaming competitors (including PC). If they can provide the most smooth/convenient VR experience to the masses, they won't need to worry about loosing market share for being forced to integrate cross-play on free-to-play games. My estimate is conservative, but it's probably because I think the PS5 will be announced next year. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if one of Sony's representatives make an appearance at AMD's CES Press conference, or vise versa. |
Fair enough, but even then PSVR2 most likely won’t release simultaneously and PSVR will most likely keep getting produced for another two years, just like PS4. PSVR sales have been pretty consistent and if it takes another 8 month again for the next million it’s going to reach the 4 million in May 2019 already. It’s possible bundles, Black Friday and Christmas deals and games like Firewall and Astro Bot will make it reach that milestone even earlier.
