killamch89 Posted March 28, 2024 Posted March 28, 2024 Why am I not surprised? I mean, first of all, it's extremely expensive. Secondly, it's far more limited in terms of capabilities compared to other VR devices in addition to being locked to the PS ecosystem. Of course it was bound to fail. Also, the fact that another PS peripheral device has failed spectacularly shouldn't surprise anyone. What are your thoughts about this?
Lens Posted July 14, 2024 Posted July 14, 2024 I agree with your points. The major drawback are the the high price point and limited capabilities. Another one to consider is because it's exclusive to the PS.

If VR is already a niche considered too expensive, Sony needs to do something about it. To me, a common PSVR 2 is very essential as such move could help Sony to have more penetration in the broader VR eco system.
