If they made it any higher in resolution the result would be difficulty in getting games to run smoothly.

however since your vision is in stereo, while each eye is only seeing 960x1080, the full effect is a full 1080p image, the varied focal point causes the pixel overlap to never be absolutely perfect.

it's still a significant jump over the rift, when i tested their HD version of the devkit the difference was literally night and day quality wise.

If they used OLED instead of LCD (they wont of course) then the very minor gridding (less of an issue on 1080p units anyway, but a very clear issue with the first devkit), would be virtually non-existant and lend a much cleaner, vivid image.

Whats important about this is that theyre thinking BEYOND videogames.

Lets hope it works out. Could be fantastic.

Journey Flower Wipeout.

Should be made for if as Sonys first vr ips.

i also read that article, but i think move is not necessary. they said it 'works together' but it would be FATAL if the VR headset would need move to work.

i kind of like the idea of a VR headset. but i feel like sony will make wrong choices. they should make the device free to use on PC and smart devices. Oculus Rift already has a foot in the door and it should have been better for sony to invest in oculus. announce a partnership or something.

well, we have to see. now we should know that driveclub got delayed to be the first AAA game that runs on that VR headset. i guess i will get one, but that's just because i have too much money and buy too much shit i don't really need.

do you expect a possibility of future versions to use OLED? im just asking your personal opinion, i understand if you cant answer. 

Production one will likely use oled, it just makes sense.

They use it in the personal viewer, they understand its advantages well enough.

price my friend, price. 

They arent that pricey, not anymore.

plus the screen is the last thing they chould cheap out on, on such a product.

This is one substancial problem with Sony - they often try to "lock" their technology to make the best profits out of their tech. Generally from a business view this seems to be the right decision but for customers this is definitely not the best direction a company should go.

"Unnatural" audioc-ds, backdoors on audio-cds, proprietary memory solutions, own media formats, just to enforce their own solution is not the way of success in 2014 and the following years, in my opinion.

So yes, they should make their VR available to as many platforms as possible, with a free to use SDK, like MS did with Kinect on PC.

Doubtful unless OLED tech gets cheaper, its not a huge issue though, generally at 1080p shared across two eyes the pixel density is a nice ballance between clear and demanding too much power from the console, OLED would increase the cost somewhat, i can see it happening eventually but for launch they would want to attack the cheapest option agressively to increase initial adoption.

For me, its exciting and fun, but i am far more excited at the possibility of VR headsets becoming more common, as it increases the chances of much better units further down the line, even if that occurs in a future console generation.

We are at a point where increases in console tech make only so many differences on the average consumer display.
