if it costs as much or more then a PS4 I don't think it will be successful...I'm not copping either way unless it's a smash hit...so I think it needs to come under kinect's price of 150 at least to be somewhat successful

$399 Oct launch

That's about as much as I thought it would be. No higher than $399. I wonder how much they will be losing on each sale.

I think it's a great target price...Microsoft better respond by E3. I am assuming a dual GPU solution (adapter) + a VR Kit at $399.

shyt's bought. $350 would be perfect but $399 is more than doable for this tech.

Gotta give me some worthwhile games though

 

[Tunez]

Won't get it, too expensive

 

[The Mad Titan]

Not remotely interested.

With the headset on, users can also go into 'cinematic mode' to see the entire 16:9 PS4 menu and play all of their PS4 games."

DOAX3 is PSVR compatible, that's all I needed to hear.

.

So... I can play games as is but extremely close to my eyes.

Yeah, I'mma need E3 to hurry up with these games

I wonder if Sony will throw out a $700 SKU out there. I don't think they need help selling anything this generation, but would be a nice SKU to see. Market that shyt as a complete solution for $700 instead of having to buy a rift for $600 in addition to a $1,000+ PC.

Same here. I can afford it but for fear of buyer's remorse I'll just sleep on this VR shyt until it's cheaper.

They're going to have to have a couple killer apps. This isn't the 90s...peripherals don't sell well like that, especially not at that price

 

[GoldenGlove]

Flop

 

[The G.O.D II]

Is there seriously a market for this? Like a huge demand? I don't see anyone copping this outside the most hardcore techphiles.
