Oculus VR founder Palmer Luckey has revealed on Twitter he’s quite impressed by rival Sony’s PlayStation VR headset.
Luckey, who is very much the driving force behind virtual reality gaming as the inventor of Oculus Rift, praised the PlayStation format holder for its hardware and content lineup with its own VR headset.
Check out his Tweet below.

PS VR hits stores in fall 2016 with incredibly competitive price point
Sony has confirmed that PS VR will be released in October 2016 in the U.S. and the U.K., priced at $399/£349, respectively. The company has previously said it hopes to have around 50 games out by the end of the year.
Third-party developers have already confirmed their support for the headset, including the likes of Capcom (Resident Evil 7), Bandai Namco Games (Ace Combat 7, Tekken 7), and Square Enix (Final Fantasy XV). Sony has also unveiled its first-party launch lineup, seen here.
PS VR currently has around 230 developers working on projects for the device, though Sony has warned that demand for the headset may exceed available units at launch.
