Everybody acting like the HTC vive isn't the price it is makes me laugh NGL. This is a great price for what it is, I just wish VR had more than half-life alyx and bone works to interest me. If you're a PlayStation guy this is a solid offering especially with the backing from Sony and their game quality you can't go wrong.
Quest selling faster than the Xbox. 15m units in 18 months. They own 80% of the market. PSVR2 with its anemic library, high price, wired, is not competition. Jim Ryan is a fool with no vision.How much is the Quest 2 now?
The standard cost for the Oculus Quest 2 sits at £399 / $399 for the 128GB model, and £499 / $499 for the 256GB version, so make sure you're not paying more than the standard price for the headset by itself
How expensive is the Quest 3?
The headset is said to cost between $300 - $500
Quest 3 incoming at $300....
And 0% on the PlayStation market. Mind blown, I know.
I don’t think that they are the same person. Also, a cellphone (pretty much a requirement as an adult) and a console add-on are not close to the same thing.
Dead on arrival
Sony isn’t serious about VR, that’s what this pricing tells me.
You don't need a new phone every year
I agree. But I don’t think the person buying a phone every year is saying the PSVR2 costs too much. I think they’re likely different people.
its true, i spent 4 grand on a PC and 4 grand on a TV and $1500 for my iphone.
It's beyond me how someone would spend nearly 500 euros and play with DS4 only, honestly. You can't even move your hands freely lol
It seems high for a wired device that must be plugged into a PS5. But that’s just my opinion. Others disagree.
For the tech, yes.
this comparison of specialized gaming gadgets for occasional use with allrounder 24/7 everyday tools will never be not stupid.
For me it's easily worth the price. VR is amazing and gaming is my biggest hobby.
Never argue with stupid people, so I will stop.
The price is good for the tech. The average person isn’t going to drop that kind of money on a niche device though.
Fair enough
it is a good price for the tech inside, which is, I think, the best seen so far in consumer VR. The problem is that you need a PS5 if you dn’t have one and the game lineup is dogshit quite frankly. It isn’t 2019 anymore, there is a robust library of VR games out there and the PSVR2 right now is locked out to pretty much all of it. It really is like the launch of a console without BC, cool hardware but wait for the games to come out. Maybe Horizon is a 10/10 but we won’t know until it comes out.
The price is great. Fantastic even. It comes down to software
It does not have an internal battery so not possible.

lay off the crack
Meta’s Quest Pro is not designed for gamers (Quest 3 will be that) and is wireless. Sony got this one wrong. Wireless is revelatory. Being able to turn around without wrapping a cable around yourself is step one to successful VR!
I’m fucking stocked that Game Pass’s cloud gaming will be on the Quest 2. Hopefully Quest 3 as well.
Why would you play 2D games on less than optimal headset screens with no HDR and greyest of blacks in 2D, when you can play them on your better TV screen or monitor?
A lot of those games are just Quest ports and nobody gives a crap about them now. RE4 is probably the showpiece game for it, is Sony moneyhatting exclusivity like they did for RE7? Like I said before, cool hardware but for $550 I need some amazing titles. Just as I would for an expensive vidya console.Why do people keep talking about the software?
It's has a solid launch window lined up.
Here's Every Game Announced for PSVR 2
Sony has revealed the price and launch date for PSVR 2 in addition to its launch day lineup for PSVR 2. There’s a ton of stuff coming down the pipeline though as we approach the February 22nd launch of PSVR 2, so check out our mega roundup of everything confirmed both by Sony and indie developers …
Out of the 11 they announced today, sure most of them aren't great. But people seem to be ignoring what else they have going on. Which is quite a bit.
You can’t base all vr games on visuals though. Walkabout Minigolf may look like a cartoony Xbox 360 game, but holy fuck is it a top 5 vr game of all time.
Now this is a flat out lie. Just stop. We know you crit everything Sony, but come the fuck on now.
Shut up man
Having RE8 and RE4 alone in the launch window is pretty fucking good. Not all the games are great, but there is a bunch of them that are. Like those 2, Horizon and a few others.
