That's the problem though. you wont know if you are one to be effected until you really try it out with a number of different visual input stimuli.

Its like the imax experience. Most people who wear contacts or corrective lenses cant enjoy the effect without having to adjust one of their lenses (or removing it from their eye). Its because how your eyes see things and your brain puts them together to make the complete picture.

As i said, its not going to be for everyone.

They'll never release a product that does this... Not in the West, anyway.
Just IMAGINE the lawsuits that might emerge as a result.

So far they've had a prototype at trade shows, which is fine... So long as you have someone on-hand with a bucket.

As it stands, the device is going to need to be covered in warnings and disclaimers... and even then it will never make it through the official consumer-testing phase.

Some people are not going to be able to use virtual reality of any sort without feeling sick. Some folks can't watch 3D anything without getting a headache. You can't make a one size fits all solution that makes it work... Even at 120fps. I have a phone with a 1080p screen, and a google cardboard headset to make it a VR device. I can personally tell you the "nintendo DS resolution" claim is total bull****. The only time I ever see any pixelation at all is when trying to look at objects that are way off in the distance, like over 100 feet away in the virtual world. Also, morpheus is still a prototype, and many at Sony have suggested they're trying to push for an even higher res screen. Judging by my phone, I'd be happy if it were 1080p like it is now, but any boost would also be welcome.

People react differently to VR.

Well if Nathan Fallon and Conan didn't have any issues, then nobody should. /s

It shouldn't be widespread or anything, but everyone experiences things differently. Could be a just 1 in a million that have an issue, but it could be worse. Won't know until more people get their hands on it. I wouldn't dismiss peoples issues with it just yet. Something like VR, people should try it out before buying to be sure they don't have any issues with it.

Have a feeling that if this was about the Xbox One you wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it even if it came from IGN.

Jimmy Fallon, Conan, and hundreds upon hundreds of gaming journalists at E3, TGS, and Gamescom all tried it without issue... so obviously the "it makes me sick" camp is far outnumbered by the "it was really cool!" camp.

Also, if it were on Xbox One, it would be making even more people sick or getting even more resolution complaints, due to lower native rendering resolution, framerate, or both. The box struggles hard enough just rendering one viewpoint at 1080p, going for 2 960x1080p images, each rendered from a different viewpoint, is going to tax the system even more.

The final project morpheus may very well have a higher resolution than the current one (which is equal in resolution and has better head tracking than the rift DK2). It has been hinted at by people at Sony that they are debating over using the current screen, or an even better OLED screen with faster response time and higher resolution. Cost will decide which they go with upon release. Since they have no solid release date, they have some flexibility when it comes to the final specs.

The negative reports have been outnumbered vastly by the positive, by no less than an 80%-20% margin. Of course, you can't make a device that straps to your face that everyone is going to be able to enjoy. Some people get motion sick easy. Others can't stand having something on their faces for long, and get uncomfortable. VR isn't and never was for everybody, much like 3D. VR appeals to a wider audience than 3D, but faces the same issues with people being made uncomfortable by it as well. Sony seems to have got Morpheus pretty close to mass acceptance though, with only a tiny handful of negative reports so far.

@poppinslops

"logic" is on my side because I use facts unlike you, sorry to ruin your hate and FUD parade that's all your camp does these days. I'm going to keep on calling you out.
