Sony is definitely going to price their at $400 now. They did it with the PS4, and they'd totally do it here.

ChrisW3047d ago

There are some royalties and other petty things that raise the price, but for the most part I'm certain they aren't making too much money off of it.

If Sony is smart, which they are. They will price the psvr at a sweet spot and add Facebook as their competitors along with Samsung and valve to the existing Microsoft and Nintendo.

It means VR died yesterday. No way it will have a decent user base with this price tag and devs will treat it like a WiiU.

Sony can still resurrect it, but you know... The bar is set.

JMyers3047d ago

399 for PSVR would be okay I think... Sony needs to convince people to pick up PSVR instead of a second console. Compelling variety and numerous games will do this, but it needs good marketing and kiosks to do this.

I'll get one if its between 399 and 499. No more though.

That's fine. GT7 would overshadow it anyway at it has open wheel and regular cars.

Should have been spending their time updating Squadrons with better resolution, frame rate, haptics, etc as there isn't a game like that on PS VR 2 yet.

But it's EA. They don't think.

Babadook7365d ago

I agree. It would sell better on PSVR2 right now.

Knushwood Butt366d ago (Edited 366d ago )

A wasted opportunity, but I don't buy EA / Codemasters stuff anyway. Grid Legends just came out on Plus and I haven't touched it. Why would I when I have GT7 and PSVR2?

Abnor_Mal366d ago

Not into F1 racing, but still a missed opportunity.

ApocalypseShadow366d ago

That's where opportunity presents itself that they could offer something else that other developers haven't offered yet. Yeah. There's No Man's Sky. But a space game with a story would be great. Like the old days with Colony Wars.

Abnor_Mal366d ago

Exactly, they could have possibly lured more players just from the inclusion of a vr mode.

I miss Colony wars and G-Police, Low-Fi I hope will scratch that itch when it releases. We also need a vr War/Starhawk game.

Knushwood Butt365d ago

Just watched the trailer of Low-Fi. Most definitely on my radar.

Although I never owned an oculus, I played the demo for this at an electronics store. Pretty impressive in an early goings of VR title.
