    They specifically said the opposite actually. They have no intention of adding VR support for the game. The Titan thing they demoed previously was just a publicity thing and a showcase for VR.

    For those that aren't aware, running a game in VR requires it to be rendered twice, once for each eye. It will be impossible for any existing console games to be ported to VR due to them already using the majority of the system resources. The PS4 will not be capable of rendering any existing game twice. Any future PSVR titles will have been built from the ground up especially for it.

    Let's not even get into how impractical it would be to play this game in a first person perspective...

    I'm sorry but no your point doesn't still stand. You said that they had confirmed the game would have VR compatibility yet Yoshi explicitly said the opposite so your point was simply wrong...

    The Titan fight demoed on PSVR was a dev build made just for that event to promote PSVR. You couldn't do much beyond look around and use a very limited number of abilities. It was a glorified tech demo. I'm also fairly certain it was running on a PC via a devkit and not an actual PS4 as the console would not be able to push the constant 60FPS required to not get motion sickness in VR.
