Reading the comments here of Yoshida I really wonder if Sony baited Oculus and Facebook into this plunge into VR

because Sony sounds just like George Zachary when describing the hurdles Oculus will have to overcome to make the Dive Mask a viable "platform". Like the guy said "How is this thing a platform:" Yoshida says, "Including our own prototype". I think he's burning the bridge before anyone crosses it successfully. Ok eMagin how you gonna do it?  PS: Sony said they picked the name "Morpheus" because he was the Greek God of Dreams. I wonder if they really chose it because they know that fully immersive Virtual Reality IS just a dream.

“Virtual reality of the past, including our own prototype, has been very difficult to use in terms of getting headaches and becoming nauseated,” he continued. “Those early prototypes had larger latency and the positional tracking may not have worked as well. I feel really sorry for people developing virtual reality stuff – they have to test it!”
