It's still a fad and all you VR buyers out there will have to buy a new model within 2 years.

Fad or not, it is the best gaming experience I have ever enjoyed. I would gladly spend $600 every 2 years for more advanced tracking, controlers, and display. In fact I would be willing to spend even more. I hope we get a steady stream of new hardware, headsets, trackng devices, and controllers. 

Just like new more advanced Blu-ray players, Phones, TV's, Stereos, ect. come out every year. I think the same thing should happen with consoles, vr headsets, tracking systems, and controllers. No one has to upgrade every year, some can upgrade every 5 years, some would upgrade every 2, but we would constantly have growth and improvement.

I can see so much potential and growth in this industry, that I feel like I am 5 years old again, and anything is possible.

i.e. you are a rich early adopter. I'm an early adopter too, certainly not as rich as you, but I can afford a few things. VR is not for me though. If it was, I'd definitely get Vive instead of PSVR.

Not rich, I just take very good care of the little money I make. Good use of credit cards/rewards programs, low/no intrest loans, and good/lucky investing can make a little bit of money go a long, long way.

If Scorpio supports Vive, I may get one. I would not be against alternating upgrades between different manufactures. PC's just arn't my thing, so my only option right now is PSVR.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

that's a good thing, as it means there will be very meaningful progress in VR capabilities, that clearly deepen immersion by offering a better image (resolution, framerate, field of view, ..) and improved interactivity (eye-tracking/reactions to player gaze, better hand/movement tracking with less hassle, maybe even wireless connection,..)

Das ist mir klar. Recently I'm just in the mood to downplay VR for no good reason. No one forces me to buy it anyway. Enjoy your current and future headsets, people.
