"Don't get too comfy"

Hehe oh man this looks sick! Gonna be expensive though getting the headset, the move controllers and the camera.

Might be a good idea to buy some cheap move controllers now before the hike in price.

[Bathyj]

It would be nice if they gave some pricing information and what you get for it so people can do just that. Do I buy a Move now, or will Morpheus be packed with it? Knowledge is power.

[donthate]

This is so ironic!

The game has the same problem that many Kinect games has, inability to move around normally i.e. the game is on rails.

I hope devs figure this out....

[Gazondaily]

@donthate

That's a 'problem' isolated to this game alone though. The Move controller with the analog stick would sort that out easily. There's nothing to figure out?

Luckily for me I only need to get the VR headset 'cos I was crazy enough to get a PS Camera with my PS4 and already have 2 move controllers and that other controller thing from the PS3...

Still wondering about pricing tho...

edit: I even have a gun thing that you can put a move controller into, was an ugly white and red one but with the Morpheus on you won't notice that at all, hope it works with it as well button wise!

Anyone that had the Move from last gen knows that the Move + the Navigator, or the Move + half Dualshock equals freedom of movement. Then again, some people are attempting detractions for quite obvious reasons...

[freshslicepizza]

visually it looks damn impressive but as a game it looks kinda boring and on rails.

@morganfell,
"Anyone that had the Move from last gen knows that the Move + the Navigator, or the Move + half Dualshock equals freedom of movement."

cool, where does it show open playing on this game? my guess is it won't be as they purposely wanted a very linear play style much like the order so they can improve the visuals.

[morganfell]

Freedom of movement and open world are two different things. Then again, understanding and being honest are not your strong suits. Neither is reality since you actually think no one sees you for what you are. Sad that many people come here to post about what they like but you show up to post about what you fear, envy, and hate. What a life.

[JMaine518]

Looks really cool. That car chase scene seems fun! I can't wait for VR!

[TLG1991]

This looks very good, and considering this is just to show off the tech, cant wait to see what big devs do with this kit.

[Rimeskeem]

So much god news coming to the morpheus, cant wait to grab mine!

I love how the second part it looks like he knew what he was doing and the game was responding precisely to what he was doing.

[TwoForce]

Project Morpheus looks very cool. I hear a lot of good things about it. Hopefully, i want to see the price of it.

[shadowT]

cool stuff!

[MasterCornholio]

Neat

:)

[LifeInNZ]

When are we going to see a real game with gameplay that warrants the potential pricetag?

[Dfooster]

2017 when they've worked out how to make games for VR

[Bathyj]

You dont even know the price tag yet so its a little early to decide if a game warrants it.

[boing1]

I'd venture to guess that full package with camera and controllers will be around price of the console. Maybe slightly less. If they go higher, only hot heads will buy it.

[S2Killinit]

Looks cool. Cant wait for VR. I wish they would give us a "killer app" though at kaunch. But then again im sure at least one of the ton of games coming for it will do the job.

[boing1]

They have to give killer app because otherwise people won't buy it at launch.

[Death]

From what I've read Morpheus will first be used to enhance existing games and not get full/unique games until it sells enough.

[S2Killinit]

Actually ive been following this since they announced it and they mostly said the opposite until recently when an article came out saying some VR titles might surprise consumers because they have been already announced as regular games. This lead to speculation that games like No man's sky might be Morpheus compatible. Other than that all the games they actually announced as in development for morpheus have been specifically morpheus/VR titles.

[boing1]

Oh, No man's sky would be brilliant on Morpheus. Maybe that's why they're so reluctant to give us release date?

[jb227]

I think there's potential for all kinds of cool experiences with this thing. With the rise of the GoPro and all of the crazy stunt footage we have seen, it would be great to have a skydiving or basejumping/slacklining sim for VR. Has anyone made anything like that for Morpheus or Oculus yet? Little experiences like that would be great fun if they are able to price them right.

[S2Killinit]

Diving with sharks with Morpheus comes to mind. They say its immersion will surprise a lot of people.
