I'm thinking this will be the PS Move all over again. I have a feeling it keeps selling out is because they hardly made any units. You're thoughts....
 
Needs option "No because it not only guarantees lifetime virginity but will even turn you back into a virgin if you aren't one."
 
VR's here to stay. It's not going to replace traditional gaming, but it's definitely have it's own thing going on.
Playstation vr will be entry level option and i feel it will compliment the pc equivalents as opposed to rivalling them.
 
Only if it gets good games, which it probably won't. I will if Bamco releases the standing in an office simulator which was basically promised to me.

That would be an accurate choice to put up if simply because of this:

That's assuming VR doesn't end up being a gimmick like motion controls. It may have a place but not without having problems such as a high-price tag or (in the case of PC gaming with headset such as the Oculus Rift) high system requirements such as needing a GTX 970.
 
Bump! I tried it, it's only some what better than Goggle Cardboard. Also the batman game the stuff looks blurry and off centered. Not worth 500 bones! I'll wait till these become 100 bucks, I bet with in 6 months to a year from now.
 

This made PS VR look like the worst headset out of all of them to me.

PS Move wasn't great, but at least I could play Time Crisis, House of the Dead 3 and 4 in HD as well as RE Umbrella Chronicles and Darkside Chronicles in HD on them and they looked great. PS VR just seems like rushing to bring VR to consoles when if I was gonna get a VR headset I'd get the occulus.
 
PSVR isn't even the cheapest headset. Razer's OSVR HDK1 beats it by 50 bucks (comparing the two base models).

I have a theory that people prefer to move their body the least as possible when providing input to a video game or other computing device, all while sitting comfortably.

If I don't need to physically turn my head or do a weird dance while wearing the VR headset, then it should do fine in sales.

I prefer to hold a controller with my foot and jack off with two hands when I play that waifu simulator. I'd shell out a thousand dollars right now if I could just have that.

I feel that some people are willing to move their body a little.
 
Not sure I see the reasoning. Only games VR's really useful for are cockpit games, and those are mostly PC exclusive territory, excluding Grand Turismo, and if you're already dumping the money needed for the headset and the wheel and the pedals etc etc, or the flight yolk with the foot pedals, and so on, you probably aren't playing GT/AC/Pcars on a ps4. So god knows who would want a platform locked headset. Unless they've just slapped a Sony logo on an OpenVR headset.

If it can't work with World of Warcraft in first-person mode I will continue to give no fucks about these gizmos.

If you want WoW in FPS mode, use Vorpx with a rift or vive.

Yeah, for stuff like Star Citizen and similar it sure works wonders - but how is a console going to run that?

I think moving my head a little to look around has some appeal but dedicating an entire room to it... nah, thanks.
 
I might but I would rather play taxes next year with that money.
