This VR headset will make the PlayStation so much better

We, as a society, remain on the cusp of virtual reality. It's coming...soon! More accurately, it's already here.

You can buy a VR headset from Samsung today at Best Buy if you want. And it's pretty great!

What's still coming is much, much better virtual reality, care of companies like Sony, Facebook and HTC. In the above video, we explore Sony's solution for the PlayStation 4 - the Project Morpheus headset, which arrives at retail in the first half of 2016 - with the headset's chief architect Richard Marks. 

(And no, he's not the same Richard Marks who sings "Right Here Waiting." Different guy.)
