      I'm in the camp where the number seems reasonable for what you get but the price is too high for me to buy one.

        I tried the latest Dev Kit not too long ago with Super Monkey Ball? Or something like that it was a demo where you were mini golfing with a monkey in a ball. I was sick to my stomach the rest of the day.... I probably won't be investing in VR any time soon.

          It's all about expectations. They should have priced the dev kits at $700 and then $600 would look like a bargain.

            Very true. I had the same reaction.

              I want the OR but I would mostly use it for 2D gaming. I just want a high quality private viewing system.

                Wow! I wasn't expecting this price. For that kind of money, I will wait for v 2.

                      Yes - he invented Minecraft and sold it to Microsoft for a billion dollars. That's what makes the joke funny.
