(1st post, really excited lol.) Anyways I'm a huge fan of VR, even tho I've never tried it. I really hope this succeeds on a decent scale, so that VR does have a future and it doesn't fall down the path of irrelevancy like it did in the 90's after it failed. I want Sony and Oculus to continue investing into this technology so it gets better and better, to the extent that the screens and sensors will be cheap and good enough that the headsets no longer receive a bump in them when they upgrade. Instead the headsets would be bundled with other tools that help you immerse yourself into the game, like, for example, control input, an attachment that would send vibrations to your body so you can feel, etc.
I know it sounds bizarre but ever since a kid I've always envied imaginary worlds that I saw in animations, video games, and movies. I've always felt our world was boring and uninteresting in comparison, and let's face it, life gets so hectic for people sometimes I feel as tho some people would flock at the chance to enter another reality, even for a moment, I know I would. Anyways what I'm hoping for out of the first iteration of this product is the following:
-$300 enthusiast headset. PS VR+ (1080P Super AMOLED, PS Move, PS EYE, head-tracking, very low latency.)
-$150 Casual's headset PS VR (900P LED, headtracking, low latency.)
-An action adventure game built ground up for VR, think like SOTC, Attack on titan scale.)
- All the major sport titles getting a VR Mode.
- A PS4 bundled with a casual headset for $500.
- A PS4 bundled with PS VR+ for $600.
-Sony makes a small profit on the hardware, $2-$5.
-VR games with late life PS3 graphics(which is fine for VR, of course the games will have MUCH higher res textures, just less effects and polygons and more AA), thus reducing the development costs.
-A decent advertising push.
- SAO
yeah, that sounds pretty awesome.
