Apples and oranges. Oculus is a different experience, not a different gaming platform. If PS4 or XBone could offer an Oculus-like experience then your point would absolutely make sense, but they cannot.

The closest comparable console is the Virtual Boy from 1995.

Playstation VR launches some point this year. Costing obviously remains to be seen, but the tech is there.

Given the specs required by Oculus I'm not very confident the PS4 will be able to deliver a meaningful VR experience.

I'm not comparing the technology. I'm comparing what a gamer can do with that money.
