The resolution on that thing has to be crazy since it is so close to the eyes.

I'm curious if it will support lens wearers. I need reading glasses and having a screen that close to my eyes would not work well without them

I was allowed to play around with it a bit last year. It's pretty cool but you can't play it for much longer than a half hour at a time. Headaches, motion sickness, eye strain etc.

I figured most men would use it for about 5-10 minutes. Since they usually just skip to the middle.

it will be interesting how this compares to the rest of the VR headsets. From what I understand, framerate is the #1 reason for immersion. Sony will use image processing rather than rendering to get framerate up. So on the PC based VR, hopefully your PC is powerful enough to get that 90 fps for immersion. Where as the PS4, will render atleast 60 fps but process the image up to 90 or 120. Much like modern TVs can. I wonder if you can tell the difference?
