Disregarding that second sentence which makes no sense, you can't possibly suggest that a $600 price tag is killing VR. That's a minor thing compared to the price of the system required to run it.
Would I buy a $600 VR headset? Fuck no, cause I wouldn't buy the $1500 computer I would need to run it.
Would I buy a $200 VR headset? Fuck no, cause I wouldn't buy the $1500 computer I would need to run it.
Would I buy a $20 VR headset? Fuck no, cause I wouldn't buy the $1500 computer I would need to run it.
No, I'm afraid the price of everything *else* is keeping it a fringe product, not its price itself.
EDIT: I'm going a little hard here, but meh.
