Its not something you can really advertise, but I'm sure as we get closer to launch and even after, more exposure will be had. Take note that this is not a product that you can simply show off in an ad and it sells. It has to be experienced. Samsung is doing a wonderful job with this with the Gear ads. Its creating exposure for Sony's version. But I have to ask, were they this aggressive when the product first launched? Now its free and more ads are present. Hands on is where this thing will garner attention, not the ads. Aggressive advertising will come after.
Yeah, double the power consumption. Interesting. I bet that half-precision computing could come in handy as you could theoretically more efficiently use the power. Pretty cool.
It requires too much space to be suitable to a wide range of people just like Kinect.
It will advertise itself. Word of mouth is going to be big. The Taco Bell ad is enough. Kinda hard to advertise VR, but when people hear the words virtual reality that's all they need to know. The casuals are ready for the next big thing.
First it was motion controls with the Wii, then being the controller with Kinect, now it's going to be PS VR which is leagues ahead of the last two. It should do very well at first. Will it hold up or fall off a cliff like Kinect is the question.
I still think they will have predominantly seated experiences after a while. I think the main killer is how disconnected you have to be to use it. I don't use my Gear VR much because it requires me to have time and opportunity to tune out the world. Those of us with kids will have a tough time.
It's definitely an enthusiast/niche product. I do want one for racing games and such, but it will never get use until everyone else is asleep. I'd love a "vr room", but who has space for that?
Looks like Skyrim Special Edition will be native 4K on the PS4 Pro, FO4 will eventually get a visual upgrade and mods are coming to both Skyrim SE and FO4 for those who are interested in that sort of thing.

Awesome! That's a win, win. Cool that mods will finally be available for the two on Sony platform. FO 4 should look pretty wicked in 4K.
Yeah, mods aren't something I'm into but I know others seem to be looking forward to it. It will be limited compared to other platforms but at least Sony and Bethesda were able to work it out in some way. I'm looking forward to playing Skyrim again with the graphical upgrades though, it's still one of my favorite games of all time.

Like i said in another thread. The PS4 Pro launch is looking solid. People laughed, what now? Skyrim and Fallout 4 in native 4K with mod support. The two best RPGs on the planet just got even better, exclusively on PS4.
I'm more psyched for the FO4 PS4 Pro update. I've played the sh!t outta Skyrim, I don't know if I could play through it again.
Looks like Mafia 3 will have added visual upgrades on the PS4 Pro as well.

Nice. Also Mafia 3 is locked at 30fps on PC i think. Funny how PS4 Pro is supposedly trash but it's getting games that are just as good as PC versions.
I hope the trade in value of my Vader PS4 is high.
I was told that Cerny will have a in depth breakdown of the Pro this Dec.

I wonder if that'll be at PSX? since that's taking place Dec 3-4, I already ordered my ticket for the first day, can't make time to go both days but hopefully there are some good panels on the first day.
