I guess that makes for a more positive spin than "the numbers are disastrous". Well played. Got to play Rogue Squadron, Resident Evil 7 video, Batman vr, and Job Simulator. All were fine, but definitely NOT worth the asking price. Second playthroughs were just plain bland and you get the sense the initial experience is all it's really good for.

750k in 3 months from a marketable pool of 53 million people for an accessory platform that costs $400+ is pretty fucking good if you ask me. And again, you can't meet market demand if you can't produce OLED displays any faster. They can, and have already upped capacity once which was the end of 2016. And regarding your last sentence, peripherals have varying degrees of success based on the companies vision. Guitar hero was an amazing success at one point, and rock band (harmonix) has managed to thrive with a self published 4th release that is constantly moving DLC purchases (coming from having to be funded by EA the first 3 games). Logitechs racing wheel has been profitable enough to warrant continual release. The only things I know to have died in recent memory are the 7th gen motion controls. But VR as a whole is different. The constant release of games means that the user base will grow, never at any point remaining static and as that happens we will see developers devote bigger budgets and more resources toward titles. As it stands there is compelling software now and there is more in the pipeline. RIGS in particular looks like something I need in my life. And if we are to assume that PlayStation will be backward compatible moving forward due to the x86 architecture, then it's reasonable to figure that the same will apply to their VR headsets.  It really is the next generation and where I think games are going. 

"Motion control is dead"
Buys two Move controller's for PSVR.

It's great hearing how good the Move controller is for Resident Evil. Reminds me of 2007.

You list Wii Sports / resort and Kinect adventures, yet don't know of Eye Toy Play / Play 2 and Sports Champions?

PSVR is the odd one out of the list as it's not a controller... It's like asking what game is synonymous with 16:9 display format.

I know of them but they're not in the same league as the others. Does PSVR even come bundled with a game?

VR uses the motion of your head to change the ingame camera. If you prefer to compare it to 4K or 3D instead, that's fine.

My complaint with PSVR isn't that the tech is 'too early' or price/accessibility, it's that Sony couldn't drop some $ making a game for it. Why not wait and release it when you have some compelling content?

It comes with a demo disc, plus there's plenty free stuff to download including Playroom VR. The bundle comes with VR Worlds.

Headtracking can also be used as a way to control the game, but it's primary function is not to be a controller. It does work really well in Eagle flight and Tethered uses it as a pointer. Anyway it's much more than just a controller.

Tech is too early, maybe, maybe not. I would have liked if Sony had made a full game for it, yet instead they made a bunch of little games with Playroom VR and VR Worlds, and ported DC over. The thing is, it seems Sony didn't know what to expect of it either, admitting they're surprised people play it for much longer than they anticipated. Perhaps now they'll invest in longer experiences and stop being so worried about motion sickness as one of the biggest complaint is the movement limiting which isn't necessary after you get used to it. Capcom isn't expecting people to play Resident Evil 7 for long sessions in VR either, I think they'll be surprised.  I'm very glad they allow full normal movement, including sprinting and fast rotation without blinders. Hopefully other devs will follow once consumers prove they can stomach it :)

$400 is a lot for a peripheral, not a lot for an all around 3D OLED tv. It works great already, playing Bound on PSVR on ps4 pro, I don't even notice its lower resolution, except at the start when it boots up in 2D (virtual screen). Switching to VR is still a revelation every time. Just a shame that game doesn't allow a moving camera in VR. (Rapidly flicking camera views on the uptempto piano music is pretty awesome though lol)

But I admit, the lack of full length games has me playing some mindless stuff from my backlog as well. Only to get annoyed with the restricted view, sluggish camera and backwards aiming. Then boot up a VR game and get amazed again with the immersion and freedom to look around, yet lacking 20-60hr games to get really lost in.

I'm thinking Sony is testing the waters, trying to get some ideas going for VR games, in order to decide whether to make VR an integral part of PS5. VR is a long term game, there was never going to be the perfect moment to switch everyone over to VR. Same with the switch to 3D games.

Strongly disagree.

It's game changing technology. By that virtue alone it will be an astounding success. People will quote sales and by that metric, a $400 dollar peripheral will never be as big of a sales boon to the general public as the comparisons being made.

But - we all know that it doesn't have to be that, to be a wild success and transform the industry.

As an owner since October. This is VR 1.0 to me. It will sell less than 2.0 and it won't be absolutely perfect but it's quality enough to convince me of the technology and be sold as a must have peripheral moving forward that's well worth the cost.

I tried VR, and I don't like it. Wii 2.0
