That seriously changed my mind

This is a normal post Nope, but I'm sure it will
be just as good on other headsets though right? I just think they set the price way too high. Like the HTC Vive, who wants to spend £800 on a headset? Then you gotta get the computer which would probably cost about that too. Sony have got a good chance of bringing VR to the masses without the massive price tag imo.

Dunno how far Razor are taking theirs but it's affordable at least.

This is a normal post Well anyone looking to adopt this early already has the PC
And I'd suggest that you won't get much change from £1k for the PC. The PS4 one cannot be up to scratch though, the hardware it's running from is frankly rubbish - That console has the same processing power as a two year old PC. The nice thing about the Rift over everything bar the HTC is that the lag and sickness effects are gone.

This is a normal post And there's the main problem
The price of entry is way too high. Samsung had an interesting idea with the Gear, but the Galaxy S phones don't have the traction needed in the market. If Apple were to do something like it with the iPhone then that would kick the market up the arse and they'd clean up the low to mid range. While claiming it was high end. And that they'd invented it.

This is a normal post Apple did patent an idea of using an iphone in a headset


But who wants a phone stuck on their head? The battery isn't going to last long pushing out that kind of stuff.

Edit: Also looks like you'd need 2 iPhones to get 3D anyway lol!

This is a normal post So Apple patented the Samsung Gear
I'm not surprised. Thing is the Gear works very well for playing 360 videos and won't take any more battery than just watching YouTube on it.

As for gaming? I guess if you're sitting down wearing it then it wouldn't be too much effort to have a charger cable running. You'd have that with any of the other systems anyway.

This is a normal post That cardboard model is clearly supperior to the Apple version.
By not having to drill through the cranium between the "external Naris" and the "Inferior Nasak Choncha".

That or they hired the worst illustrator on earth.

This is a normal post Good points about the ps4
but I'm not convinced it's not up to it until I see it running, I don't think Sony would release Morpheus if it was totally shitballs.

This is a normal post ^ this
Unlike when they released their "me too" kinect, they've got the time available to get it right this time.

This is a normal post The "me too"?
Not the "move" then? That was actually quite fun, especially Tiger Woods golf. Although you didn't get to fuck any hookers in it.

This is a normal post Yep, the move

This is a normal post never played the kinect myself
but it's hardly been a success has it?

This is a normal post There will be extra hardware
so it's PS4 + box + headgear. No indication of what the extra box does yet but it's quite likely taking some of the processing burden.

Edit: Been reading about, I think it performs reprojection, that bumps the fps up to 120, it works by averaging 2 frames and creating a new one in the middle. But yeah you're right, that seems to be because the PS4 can't push 120fps at 1080p natively, it can just manage 60fps.
