“Waaaahhh waaaaah, Sony abandons hardware, like they did the Move.”
Guess what? The Move is not abandoned. The same controllers potentially collecting dust in your closet are relevant again. They could have introduced new controllers to use for VR and charged you for them. I happened to keep mine, so I had to spend less on my headset. Get it? Not adandoned. Still useful with new tech. And if you’ve actually tried this thing, you would see that they actually work well.
Gonna go play some new releases on PSvita because there are still new releases coming for it as well. Meanwhile, what’s Kinect up to?
Haha good question.
