PSVR2 DEAD ON ARRIVAL? | Sony Announces Pricing and ”Support” (VL736)

Virtual Reality has long been a dream of many, and in the past few years the technology has begun to be adopted in fits and starts.

And yet, it has not found generalized mass market adoption for a host of reasons, one being its often prohibitive price point.

Sony's PlayStation VR 2 product (PSVR2) most definitely does not seek to change that.

Let's talk about markets, technology, and foolish decisions.

It's all about markets today...in Virtual Legality.
