If I was Sony I wouldn't waste time and money on PS2VR.
I would drop the price of PS5 to 299 - 349 USD / 349 - 399 Euro as soon as possible to put the final nail in the coffin of Xbox.

I am sorry if some people cant afford a set up like ps5 and psvr2 but if you did you would know that this is next level gaming! I am looking foward to the new Astro game which will be in some way Vr if not fully. Plus the many other titles which are coming which playing on Vr2 is the best version!
Playing Cyube on Vr2 is unbelievable and like being in a minecraft universe! I hate minecraft but this just blows me away!

AI has taken the VR and Metaverse lunch even moreso than any other technology.
A lot of established technologies like smartphones and game consoles might not see big revolutions until the AI tech is integrated fully but those industries have big enough markets to be sustained for the near future with incremental updates as usual. Everything else that is sort of in a start-up / early growth phase is fucked though, no one is going to invest in VR videogames if the ROI on AI is 10x or 100x bigger. Not to mention that the type of 'lets try new things' devs that tinker with VR and Crypto have all moved to AI projects. Enterprise AI is where the tech money is for the next 5 years or so.

Although those initial stories of guys spending $3000 and complaining how porn didn’t work were fun. I think Apple/Facebook made the right call with their prediction that a new type of input method would emerge to interact with AI/Virtual Agents.
They just didn't realize it is all developer led up to this point, which means the preferred input method is command lines which they made 'accessible' with a chat interface. 
Developers who don't see the need to color a button, won't create complex interactive gamified 3D worlds. The one question Mark could never answer with the Metaverse was "Why?".
We'll get their eventually once the virtual worlds can easily be generated by AI and the focus shifts to delivering AI to consumers.
