Sony's PSVR 2 virtual reality headset will get an adaptor for PCs this summer but its best features will remain exclusive to PlayStation (www.pcgamer.com)

Exciting for PC gamers, but a bit disappointing that the top features will stay PlayStation-exclusive.

Not really, unless you really don't want to use Meta products (at which point I'd wonder why you would rather patronise Sony of all companies) why would you not get a Quest 3 for the same amount as a psvr+adapter?

The quest 3 is lighter, higher res, can work standalone and doesn't need a wire to work with a computer. It beats the PSVR2 on pretty much any metric you care to name, except that its screens are not oled hdr.

Problem is Meta data

I mean, yeah, and that's a concern for a slim minority of people, I wouldn't buy a quest 3 and my quest 1 is seeing very little action since it became clear just how much data is being harvested, but if I had to buy something at this point it wouldn't be the PSVR2 either.

For one we don't know if they'll be harvesting data, or how much, for 2 it's wired and dependent on a computer.

At that point I'd rather wait for whatever standalone Valve may eventually sell.
