Need to go back and read the other thread on VR that Sony said it needed 100hz min for its display. How many ps4 titles achieve 60 fps? Then think of how much of the world will need to be in memory. Just the additional processing is going to cost a good bit before you get to the VR parts.
The OP put in those cost not Sony. Sony is going to essentially shave their margins...to me that is code for this is going to be expensive not cheap but we are not robbing you for profits message. Heck they may even take a loss to get this thing out there. But I don't see anything under 400 bucks. Unless they take a big loss...not seeing the millions of these things getting sold at that price point. Specially for an experience that you can't get a TV ad that demos how it works and get people excited.
For those outside of the gaming community who don't have a ps4 you could be talking 700-800 investment (before buying any software) for a SINGLE person experience...not your family just you. Lets get the family together to watch one of us at a time experience VR. Unless they get a family pack that lets others join in locally this is going to be the family member who lives in the basement dream machine.
