Sony's underlining VR advantage is humorous, but it is true. Due to what Sony did with games like Eye Pet, and other Playstation Move games with AR over laying Assets built into Sony's Use of the light orb on top of the playstation move controllers.

Example Scenario:

Calls a certain publisher 

Sony : how about that star wars game , yeah its doing pretty well, hey how is that light saber VR part game for the new knights of the old republic game going...oh that's fantastic..oh' they are able to give each player their own color for their light saber...nice, what's that? Oh dual welding also..and unique lightsabre unlocks..awesome.. 

Support for our Playstation VR glove to mimic Jedi power's, oh good.. 

Well carry on now.. 

Hangs up phone. Spins around...kaz looks fondly on his desk..holding on a Vive & OculusRift Motion controller and thinks to himself with a sly smirk..yes you do light up like Playstation move, but not as much presence inside a starwars VR game like playstation move does in that game..chuckles slightly..but at least you will be joining Playstation as one of the best ways to play a Jedi in a game..Kaz picks up his red lighted Playstation move controller, and puts on his playstation red lighted VR glove. 

Pressing intercom hold my calls Darthkaz is on his way to the PlayStation VR room to challenge Jedi yoshida to a dual for who buys lunch.

what?

HAHAHA my thoughts exactly. I am dead with laughter.

Well its like this, the playstation move's multi-Light LED sphere on top of it, is not just for tracking, it also allows the developer to overlay AR ie: augmented reality effects over top of the controller to represent something in a game.

So imagine they could create a lightsabre like kylo Ren's or other classic Jedi or dark force user's  lightssbre's in the VR game.

Or unlock pretty awesome unlockable 

Light saber effects for your dark Jedi sith or Jedi Knight

Ohhh okay.

I am still lost. Can you explain?

You can't see your move controllers inside VR anyway so why would the light globe matter at all?

I think he is still lost too man

As we all are

Its the difference. Between having a motion control game controller being just tracking with some prebaked AR effects, over a motion motion controller having active Variable AR overlay effects.

But what does AR have to do with VR?
