Vr needs a strong hardware and headsets usually are on the more expensive side of things. Thats why many thought that consoles, namely the PS4 by Sony with its sufficient console power and affordably priced headset would be able to boost the VR mission.


Sony now released official numbers. They said so far 3 million headsets and 22 million VR titles for Playstation 4 have been sold.


I think that is not desastrous, but also not really "good".



Main problem imo remains that there are too few good VR titles that adapt very well to the medium, its typical strengths and weaknesses. Myself, I am still happy, since I use it mainly for race driving. And race sims and VR are made for reach other - perfect combo. Evertyhing falls into the right place with this combination. The other top hit for me remains to be Google Earth.
