personally i think that is WWAAYY too high of a price point for a peripheral, and i think it's going to flop big time. tack on that you will then need the camera and 2 psmove controls to get full usage out of it, and we have the most expensive peripheral by far for a console. history has shown that peripherals simply do not last long, let alone ones that cost $400.
personally i won't start to really have any interest in this until it's around $200. i'm sure it's pretty damn cool and all, but i just can't see many people spending $400 on this, and when sales are weak i think we'll see a lot of developers pull out of making games for it. so far pretty much everything i've seen is nothing more than a tech demo.
