@get2sammyb "Sony says that "dozens" of first-party games will be enhanced by the new console on day one, while third-party studios are also on board" - they actually said "More than a half dozen" as I remember saying out loud 'Seven. Just say seven.'

@ShogunRok Most people pay £45 a month for a new phone for two years blindly accepting is the best way to do things, so if the console market joined the ranks I actually think there would be more sales, not less!
It will always work out more expensive in the end, but hey, £45 sounds a lot less than £400

Re: PlayStation VR Will Cost You at Least $400 Says Research Group

With the Rift though you really need a £600+ PC to make it worthwhile making it a total of £1,000+
As long as a PS4 + PSVR costs less than £750 then they're on to a winner. Though that's putting a lot of faith in Sony and the UK to not screw us over with conversion rates. $400 does NOT equal £400

@BAMozzy you're right that in terms of time spent by gamers map packs are great value, though years back games launched with twice as many maps as they do now and were equally played to death until the sequel was released. Creating a multiplayer map doesn't take much though. They just choose a theme, create the shape, add the textures, play test it, change what doesn't work, then edit and polish it.
The Witcher DLC does deserve its praise as after creating a huge new area, new enemies, new moves, new story, and new characters they're charging two thirds of what most companies do for comparable DLC (DA: Inquisition for example - £8<£12) even after they've released hours of free content and items. After their post launch support, CD Projekt can do no wrong! :neckbeard:
