Renault 29 Posted January 6, 2016 >Includes Xbox One Controller, EVE: Valkyrie, and Lucky's Tale The games are justified, but a controller as well? I smell a controllerless version for slightly cheaper. Maybe not much, but it's something. Kind of expected it to be in the $600 range, after hearing the creator's statement about wanting to deliver a 'quality product, with no shortcuts, which justifies a more expensive price-point than $300.' It better be damn well worth it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dio Brando 5,810 Posted January 6, 2016 the PS3 sold about 5.5 million units in its first year True but the following two years weren't too bright especially compared to the Xbox 360 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RobertOrri 202 Posted January 6, 2016 99% of people complaining about the price don't even have a good enough PC to use it. New technology is always expensive. This is a compact screen with 2160x1200 res, 90hz refresh rate and it comes with a controller and 2 games. People that expected this to be around 300 dollars are crazy. 3 Exiblade7, Lulcielid and Espurr reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dumb people don´t know that making new technology is hell expensive and eventually cheapen after few years, when said new technology becomes obsolete.

MythrilMagician 6,963 Posted January 6, 2016 (edited) That's AUD848 and not including tax. Too high a price for something that isn't even that impressive... Edited January 6, 2016 by MythrilMagician Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think I will buy one but I think there is a market for it. PC gamers often spend high amounts for things which aren't necessary... $700+ for a 4K computer screen, $200 keyboards, $100 mice, $300 headsets, etc. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RobertOrri 202 Posted January 6, 2016 I've used an Oculus before, but it wasn't for a game. It was for a video. I wasn't too impressed by it. My first time trying a Oculus was the rollercoaster demo, and I was really unimpressed. Later that day I tried the Eve Valkyrie and I was sold on the spot. Being able to use your head to lock on to other ships and look around was really unreal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
