The Sony "PlayStation VR" was launched almost a month ago and it shows that it is really competing against the two existing VR giants. Before the release, Sony mentioned that they are pretty confident that the "PlayStation VR" would sell more than a hundred thousand units and the company claims that the sales are on the right track.
According to The Fan Boy, it is a good news for Sony since the "PlayStation VR" is now hitting the target sales as of today. It has been said that the VR technology became a hype this year, but tends to have trouble when it comes to pricing.
Speaking of pricing, the Sony "PlayStation VR" seemed to be on fire due to its low price. Obviously, the Sony "PlayStation VR" is the cheapest VR headset today, but let's not forget that the PlayStation 4 is required to play along with the "PlayStation VR" headset.

The "PlayStation VR" headset has an initial price of $399 for the headset-only package. The other option for consumers is the $499 for the launch bundle set.
Meanwhile, the Western Advocate made a review about the Sony "PlayStation VR" headset. It has been said that the "PlayStation VR" is the VR device for the masses, not only because of its price but also due to its features and capabilities.
The report said that one of the advantages that the "PlayStation VR" has, is the social screen. The PSVR is equipped with a small processor unit that sits between the TV and PlayStation 4 that provides a visual information about everything.
The actual VR player wearing the "PlayStation VR" will have a secondary display using the TV screen which can be viewed by the others. Others can connect and play with them using the traditional PlayStation controller while viewing the game via television.
With the Sony "PlayStation VR" availability along with the existing Oculus Rift and HTC Vive, we may say that the video game world is now ready to take another step on the next level. As per Game Rant says, with the VR technology that has been released, we can actually say that the virtual reality is just right beside us.
