Does the PS4 have enough horsepower? (Destiny)

From John Carmack,

“Calibrate PS4 VR expectations: a game that ran 60 fps on PS3 could be done in VR (stereo 1080 MSAA low latency 60 fps) on PS4,”

Destiny is targeted at 30 FPS on the PS3 right? It might need some cutbacks to be acceptable in VR. VR also brings up some weirdness in terms of jumping out into third person, which Destiny does quite a bit.

Edit: Worth noting that Carmack works for a competing company though.

1. As time goes on developers always figure out how to squeeze more out of the existing hardware.
2. You can always cut back to hit the higher framerate.
3. Destiny VR would simply have to be first person all the time.
4. Clearly VR is more likely on the PS4 given it is demonstrably more powerful than the Xbox One.
