VR is here and it's firetrucking expensive

Recommended Posts

>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.

Hoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooly firetrucking shit THIS MUCH!?

 

No way in hell I'm gonna pay this much for anything.Didn't do it with the Ps3 and was forced to wait YEAAARS for a price cut and won't do it here

remember when the PS3 was $600.it sold well and got it's price dropped in half 3 years later

Actually in it's early years the Ps3 sold horribly due to it's price and sales later increased when more games arrived and when the price was cut

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.

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

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.

Yeah, that's the same as me. 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.

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.
