Obtaining PlayStation VR for a total newbie is quite expensive, most would say too expensive. So of course PC VR is then utterly ludicrous by comparison. Get a PS4 and PSVR for similar price to just the Vive on its own, and while the Vive is better, it's not that much better. From all accounts PSVR acquits itself admirably considering all the factors, and it still delivers real VR, it's not like it's as far behind as Gear VR for instance. It's in the same ballpark but for half the price.
Then when you take into account the number of casual gameplaying families who have a PS4 or will naturally be obtaining one very soon, thanks to cost cutting, PS4 Slim etc, then the outlay for PSVR becomes drastically more achievable.
This all just confirms to me the very obvious problem with PCVR from the start. The requirements are way too high and the average PC gamer simply doesn't have the equipment to run it, only a niche does, and now that niche that can run it has ran out of people left willing to buy at the current headset prices.
