From Sony Track Record you may forget about the above project. Most likely same fate as PS Vita (which unless u play JP only games can consider alive), PS3 Move (dead after Resistance 3 could recall any game still use Move after tat), PS4 Move (did it even start).... Most of the time they just deliver junk to the customer.

Which is why I hope Sony doesn't half-ass this whole VR thing. It seems unlikely given how much they are marketing PSVR as of late, but if one remembers... it is similar amount of marketing they did for the Move and.. to some lesser extent, the Vita.

$300 (or even $400) is a lot of swallow for the mainstream audience, only to find out that the whole project will be a flop after a year.
I have high hopes for VR in general, I truly think it is the next step in gaming. So here's hoping VR will succeed not just for Sony, but for the entire industry as well.

PS4 move? it's already integrated into your PS4 controller
and the PS4 cam that seems no one used.

So Oculus Rift going to cost more than 350usd.. So expect the same price for PS VR.

I'm expecting PS VR to get crazy price drops after Sony sees people bragging in social media about their VR experience paired with their high end PC. All of PS4 profits will be wasted for this project...

6 months after price drop, Sony will quietly stop the support for PS VR

Or Sony announce that PS VR is compatible with PC.
Btw, how they pair PS VR with PS4?

Edited: Great, its wired and needs a secondary box to plug into USB and HDMI.
Now i hope Valve will subsidize wireless VR once it takes off.

...not including a rather powerful PC too.


I'm going to make a bold opinion here.

In theory, Sony has the upper hand in brand recognition. It's more synonymous to say playstation and VR together, people would understand it better.
But Facebook and VR? Err, majority of FB users only know what candy crush is. Ask the same people who only knows what candy crush is and see if they would pump down $350 + $700 or not, most would say no.

Given that only a speck of people who plays games know and is interested in VR, the ball is in Sony's court to prove that VR is the next big leap in gaming. It's basically their job to say VR can be mainstream, not just for a niche market.


Yeah the cables is really putting me off, but it is needed to reduce latency as much as possible, not just for connection sake. Just be glad we don't have to put this on:



I'm surprised the person didn't file an insurance claim for neck injury...

LOL! This is very true. In terms of budget friendly, I can only see Sony VR doing well.
Even my desktop with 970 Sli can't game that well with VR. So yeah..
I actually hope VR is gonna be mainstream, but at an affordable price.

If Sony VR takes off, I will look forward to Lazada/11street prices. No more day one purchase for me.
I will also look forward to threads asking if warranty will cover PS4 flipping off the table because it got too intense...

Next they gonna sell a bundle with the VR and PS4 together

By observing Sony Malaysia, that bundle price will beat the price of IPhone 6S

I rather choose this bundle than Iphone

that's what happened to the
Eye Toy
Move
PLaystation 4 Eye

Consider this, no devs currently on the PSVR programme is developing any full fledged AAA game. Goal now is to get it out with small sized bite games (glorified tech demos basically) and see how the masses react to VR in general.

So yeah.. It's going to be a while before we see any must buys or system sellers.

i hope battlefield 5 got VR function cant wait to play battlefield on VR lol

I'm convinced that VR is going to be the next big thing. It will be here to stay but whether that happens in this iteration or the next is the question. I thought of going for the Oculus, but I'll probably need to spend close to RM10k to get one plus a decent PC so I might just buy PS VR instead. Sony doesn't have a great track record of successfully pushing things with the Playstation brand that's not the core consoles, so I hope PS VR won't die limply too.

Wow I remember trying this thing out in an arcade all those years ago. I think it was a robot shooting game.. I recall the graphics being trash and the frame rate was so terrible. VR was not ready then.

Latest PlayStation VR news from #PlayStationPGW:

Overall showcase:




A VR add-on to Until Dawn



This year's PlayStation 4 title Until Dawn was something between a horror adventure game and an interactive slasher film, which turned out to be a pretty good combination. Rush of Blood, based on what we heard today, is a more carnivalesque take on the world. It's "a roller coaster ride, a shooter experience, and the descent into madness of one of our characters from Until Dawn.

A new trailer for Rigs: Mechanized Combat League



Rigs feels like an indirect answer to Hawken, the mech combat game that was hugely anticipated but never quite realized on the original Oculus Rift development kit. Announced earlier this year, it's a team-based sport where six players control giant robots and play basketball by way of Quake deathmatches in the year 2065.

More details on Robinson: The Journey



Crysis developer Crytek has been playing around with dinosaur-themed VR demos since at least 2014, and we found out why at this year's E3: it's planning a dino-heavy game called Robinson: The Journey. Well, we now know that Robinson is coming to PlayStation VR, and that it appears to star a character named Robin, a panoply of extinct animals, and a small robot with a distinct resemblance to Halo's Guilty Spark.

Battlezone is still coming to VR



The VR reboot of classic Atari arcade game Battlezone (which itself had VR-like features, at least by '80s standards) was already announced, and there's only so much you can say about it. You're a tank. You fight other tanks. It's got a pretty cool neon-drenched low-poly art style. And you'll see a lot of all these things in the new trailer above.

Gran Turismo will be VR-compatible



There. That's effectively all we know about the virtual reality components of Gran Turismo Sport, which was announced at the keynote.

Tekken 7 will have VR too



Again, this is all we know, although 3D fighting games feel like a natural fit for virtual reality — players would have a front-row seat at the metaphorical fighting ring. If you want to hear Tekken characters talk a lot about their interpersonal conflicts, the non-VR-specific trailer is above.
