...I feel like I am gonna spew, and I haven't even used it yet. The device itself reminds me of some of the devices used at places like Lenscrafters to check your sight and eye health. Can this thing give me my prescription? I would totally invest in one if it did that.

[@InternetTAB]

If you're gonna spew... Spew into this

[@ArmchairChemist]

I think people who feel this way should still give the Oculus a chance. I guess it's normal to feel kinda sick when watching someone else play, but when you try it for yourself you probably wont feel sick at all ( not a guarantee though, everybody's different ), it's like how people who are prone to carsickness don't get sick when they're the driver since they have control and can predict the movements. I personally had a negative bias towards the DK2 like you guys but after trying it out for myself I was blown away.

[@monsterfurby]

I just ordered my DK2 yesterday, and now, at the height of my hype-buzz, one of my favourite youtubers adds his comments to the mix. Thanks LGR for pushing my excitement for this through the roof! Now I really can't wait for it to ship.

[@PuckStar]

I usually don't watch such long YT reviews but I saw it completely and liked it :). So thanks.

[@redworld13]

That daggerfall shirt is awesome! great stuff as always lgr!

[@MisterNinten]

I was incredibly sceptical of the Oculus Rift when I first heard about this. Now hearing that it works, for the most part, I'm actually looking forward to this. I can only imagine how amazingly awesome certain FPSes will be with a surround sound headset.

[@benbmusic88]

Oh man thanks so much for making this! This answers tons of questions on what is going on with Oculous. You should post an update when some things change or improve. I cannot wait for this..

[@lucth16]

This is the first video I ever watch of you. Love you voice/tone. Keep it up!

[@ClickToEnlarge]

I use my DK2 with my race seat/wheel and Project Cars. It's.......insanely awesome.

[@LGR]

Nick Duel That really is an experience, isn't it? I still need a proper seat, but even just with my Fanatec wheel setup it's fantastic. Can't wait for CV1!

[@ClickToEnlarge]

You got a Fanatec!? awww man Im so jeleous, I ended up just getting a $300.00 Thrustmaster. Still fun though!

[@mbbmbbmm]

Oh, so great that you review this!

[@itsaPIXELthing]

Great hardware review, as always!

Thanks for the awesome review. I think its the first review i see that actually helps deciding if i should get it or not. :)

[@PlngPong]

Keep the Rift content coming Subbed.

[@YEUWYU]

I LOVE YOUR NEW SHIRT MAN!

[@anakoART]

I tried DK1 some time ago and it was freaking fantastic. The pure feeling of you being inside another world is so revolutionary that I'm waiting for the final release with such an excitement I haven't felt since childhood. O: Hopefully they'll get over technical difficulties. Great review! Makes me wish I could try DK2 as well. xd

[@BahhBahhBrownSheep]

I wonder what you feel about the vr market nowadays

[@Hashslingingslasher-]

oh wow im glad i subbed, no one ever even attempts to put the camera up too the lenses, thanks for that

[@AmusementCrazy]

My Rift is out for delivery! So excited!

[@evilkinggumby]

"I'm only going to talk about a few because I don't want to go on for too much longer". At the 9 minute mark of an 18 minute video..LOL. I love when you geek out and just can't stop :)

[@stevenharvey5593]

Your reviews rock man!

[@KeFeStudio]

Tried this yesterday. It is AWESOME!

[@PeteSkerritt]

The Lawnmower Man v. 2.0? :) Seriously-- your excitement is pretty cool to see. I'm a bit more of a believer after watching this piece than I was before, and it's honestly because of that enthusiasm. We've been down the VR road before, but this is different. There is a lot of potential, but the price for the mass market also has to be right in order for this to take off in a couple of years.

[@tekchip]

I demoed V1 back in 2011 and it was amazing! I haven't had the opportunity to try V2 yet but if it's better in any way that's going to be even more amazing. I'll be getting a final production unit unless Sony's offering has really really really good software support.

[@ilungapaul8938]

prièr ton dieu tout va bien

[@williamkendrick]

see this is why i like you, you break it down eloquently, and nerdily. its a pleasure to watch your videos. wish i had money to support you dammit. but i have a familly and i'm a disabled vet to boot... so my income is so small i literally have to make everything work for less than 800 bucks per month with two kids a wife and a house payment... YEAH.... but if i had any extra i swear i'd throw it your way... i appreciate your videos. thank you.

[@onemanandhisbike]

Nice game collection there bro

[@mgdriver8503]

Just picked one of these up for cheap. Glad to see you have a review on this!

[@Cooe.]

Lol I hope "cheap" = less than $40 w/ everything included AT THE MOST! Otherwise you got ripped off. Honestly, a DK2 w/o controllers is probably only actually worth about $20 in a post $299 128GB Quest 2 w/ controllers world if you're ACTUALLY thinking about using it. As a tech history collectors piece otoh, it's priceless.

[@kevinhansford3929]

@@Cooe. iv got a dk2 in my collection that Iv had from new and if you can pick it up cheap enough it's still functional with some games like elite dangerous so long as you use the old oculus app

[@temepeku]

VR is what i've been dreaming of ever since i was a kid. i will buy this the second it comes on sale because the concept really interests me

[@HerbieIWALVG]

I cannot wait to get my hands on one.

[@Admiralex91]

Thank you for this honest review.

[@Powerhouse1]

The consumer edition says that It'll be under $300. If that's the case and everything works out well, than the price should be well worth it.

[@nyancat4924]

Pow3rh0use i heard the oculus rift dk2 costs $300 but im living in in germany and a old one costs 489 from ebay lol

[@EntonationStudios]

Well, this really turned out to not be true

[@lardman101]

Nice wallpaper choice, I have that one too.

[@SC0RPI0NFURY]

Nice dk2 demonstration, im so hyped about VR these days but i think ill wait for consumer version.

[@gex581990]

The final product is out you definitely need to do a video on that one

[@SpeedySPCFan]

For a moment, I thought DK2 meant "Donkey Kong 2" and wondered why there was an absence of any gigantic apes. D:

[@greenpieceofmind]

I see you back there, Arena. I still can't wait for Redguard and Morrowind reviews :D

[@DynamixWarePro]

I defiantly am thinking about getting one, especially for playing simulators with, but I am going to wait for the final version first.

[@niceandgames]

Thanks for the look at this great...thing! I have been concerned about motion sickness and general comfort of the Oculus Rift but those game demos....whoo boy. Exciting stuff! Could see spending a lot of time with something like this. Might need many drinks with straws for easy hydration while wearing the headset. :)

[@Ryodakun]

I had the pleassure of testing these things at gamescom and it's pretty amazing.

[@VarietyGamerChannel]

Just ordered one. Now the long wait begins.

[@raydeen2k]

Love the Daggerfall shirt! DF is my favorite in the TES series.

[@real_armadillo]

Can't wait to get my DK2.

[@Tachinaori]

Do you take your glasses off while using it? I am a fellow user of glasses and I was wondering about that... w/o my glasses on I can only see about a foot ahead of me. ...you awnsered it b4 i got to finish the video :P

[@zoeyvlogsify]

Awesome video, very informative. Thanks LGR. (unrelated, but can do review/play some more role play/simulator games like theme park, theme hospital, sim health, ect.. im very interested in these types of games and im having a hard time finding good ones. thanks!)

[@Neuroprep]

Hey LGR could you review elite dangerous? It seems promising and I haven't seen many other reviews on it. Elite dangerous reminds me a little of descent 3

[@Piefav2]

What were the other people playing the flight sim saying since you could see from behind. Or was that against CPU?

[@TheeCourier]

I just ordered one. You said that the your 1090T wasn't up to snuff. I didn't quite catch what you meant. Mine is a 965 BE, so I'm a little bit concerned then. Or was it something related to yours being a six core?

[@devjock]

How does this compare against the CastAR system? I remember being quite enthusiastic about that, and not so much about the oculus.

[@DavidStudiosproduct]

The first thing I'm going to do when I get an Oculus Rift, play Half Life 2. Even if I can't play the shooting part, I hear City 17 is amazing. I can already imagine the G-Man speech blowing my mind!

[@YoussefJKaram]

Did you play half life alyx yet?

[@Molo9000]

Do you know what the FOV of the positional tracking camera is? Having to set it up 2-3 feet behind your normal monitor position could be an issue for some people. I'm using a modified PS3 eye for head tracking which has about 75° of FOV and it's fairly easy to move outside its viewing cone unless I move my monitor back a little.

[@eddiehimself]

Heh, the AMD FX 8350 was really the workhorse CPU of choice back in the mid 2010s. I remember having one in my 2013 build and other people I knew having them back in that time period as well.

[@cosmic_drew]

People love to shit on the FX series today but I loved my 8350 from 2013-2016. I played so many amazing games combined with my 7970 and then my 390X and I wrote a ton of music using that cpu.

[@KevinKevinGame]

Since Duke nukem, great stuff man all the time, not sure if I want to drop on the DK2 yet though but man is it teasing.

[@whyisthereyou]

Hey LGR, are you going to be finishing the LGR plays Sims 2 expansion videos? You only got to open for business, nightlife, and university. And I was looking forward to watching the rest.

[@fuzzytron]

LGR (or anyone else) how do you spell the name of the game that you said was similar to Radial G? I remember playing a game super similar to Radial G as a kid and having a blast, but I could never remember the name. It'd be awesome to find it again.

[@effinretards]

Hey how long did it take for the DK2 to get shipped to you??

[@Lebolax44D]

What do you think about running the dk2 with any form of crossfire/sli

[@dogzer]

You're a great reviewer!

[@daN0b1adeh0meharg]

Want to get it, but I think I can wait for full release. Hopefully.

[@AsahinaZatsu]

Now to experience eerie ambiance, with the rift.

[@ThomasWinders]

Did you test anything like Vireio or Vorpx? I've been trying latest Vireio release on DK2 without any luck... games are just crashing at launch with "appcrash". I managed to get "NaissanceE" engine (UDK) to work in stereoscopic mode, but as you were saying, the monitor had to be configured in split mode and that... oh man, that is a real pain in the ass!

[@LGR]

The majority of software for the Rift doesn't work with the DK2 as of now. Devs are constantly updating, but there are still a lot of people who don't even have the new hardware yet!

[@acidfart6400]

Unrelated question, I was wondering what the mic setup you have in the background at around 3:37 is, I think it's a blue snowball but if you've got the name of the shock mount and boom that you use with it I would really appreciate it (shopping around for a half decent set up right now and I'd love to get any where near your luscious tones ;) On a related note I'm so hype for the Oculus Rift, when something finished comes out I'm definitely getting it as soon as I can. I'm going to look like an absolute nut case using it and I'm not going to care one bit!

[@LGR]

That's the official Snowball shock mount and a Rode PSA1.

[@acidfart6400]

Lazy Game Reviews Thanks man :D

[@EliteC64]

Elite Dangerous @ 11:54... Made For Oculus man :D. Whats your views on Sonys Morpheus Clint?

[@JustGamerzNL]

I hope I can one day finally walk trough Hobbiton :)

[@potterj09]

This thing ... lol waited 9 months, paid $150 shipping from the States. Used it 3 times, got 2 migraines. Luckily the local market was so strong I sold it for more than I paid. Got a Quest2 recently and never looked back

[@joshuahowson22]

Did u try titans of space?

[@djjoel1]

Friggin wicked. So stoked for the final release. Euro truck simulator or another driving sim, with one of those expensive racing chairs that moves... *drools*

[@hotaslava69er]

love this guys review he is honest

[@pendeyo]

From where do u got that Tshirt? I want it !^^

[@stevebrule6172]

best review i've seen

[@TheRetu81]

How clear were the cockpit instruments in War Thunder with OR DK2? Were they easy to read at a glance or did you have to look at them real close? I'm thinking of getting OR for flight sims when it comes out and I'm a bit concerned how the resolution of the screens holds up.

[@LGR]

At this point in time, you have to move your head closer to the gauges to read them clearly. But if you're really used to them already, you can certainly tell what they say at a glance too.

[@delatroy]

OR + The Dark Mod... Jesus testicles. Could you imagine the immersion and sense of stealth... Grim rock, Skyrim, Star Citizen, Portal multilayer!! Exploring car crashes in slow motion must be a blast too. Been waiting for this since the 80s!! :D Like being blown away by exploring Doom for the first time I'd say. Such moments are exceedingly rare.

[@interlace84]

Great dk2 review! Awaiting my order to ship next month, can someone experienced using and troubleshooting a dk2 please confirm if all dk1 demos work by disabling and re-enabling the services, and positional tracking in elite dangerous works using the restart script?

[@LGR]

No, DK1 demos don't work correctly on the DK2, they need to be written using the new SDK. Positional tracking in ED works if you disable the Oculus service entirely.

[@interlace84]

Lazy Game Reviews But.. but.. this! www.theriftarcade.com/1-click-tool-released-for-running-sdk-0-3-games-on-the-oculus-rift-dk2/ (sorry for getting my hopes up if it's false, but I really wanna try out all that dk1 leftover goodness!)

[@bastjansejberg105]

Is it worth buying this now? I'm a bit curious about this thing, but i'll with guarantee not have money when the final version comes out. Should i buy it, or just wait till the end of the rainbow?

[@Noxedwin]

I owned a DK2. I didn't use it much. I couldn't find much software that supported it, other than little homebrew Unity things. Nowadays. I use Vive. For the record, Elite: Dangerous looks sick as hell in VR nowadays. You get an incredible sense of scale. The Cobra MK.II's cockpit looks *massive*, like you could actually stand up and walk around it.

[@pacmon99]

So how do you like the 8350? I personally have one I quite like it myself really great bang for buck IMO.

[@LGR]

Seems great so far for the price and about doubled my video rendering times!

[@spinlathes9288]

DK1 was a motion sickness machine for me, can't wait to try the DK2..

[@jacobhively397]

I really really miss your old intro, please bring it back for your faithful fans. I've been here since the winblows review haha :D?

[@SteveBenway]

I had a go on one at Replay Blackpool in May. It blew my socks off, but I couldn't get past the low resolution or the "milky" lens effect. If they get those sorted... er... I probably won't get one coz my PC isn't up to the job. Still... lovely piece of kit :D

[@LGR]

Was it the DK1 or DK2 do you know? The DK2 improves that effect greatly, but it's definitely still got a ways to go and is distracting at first for sure. Certain games it's way more noticeable than others too...which is probably why games with tons of text and little details like Elite Dangerous didn't impress me much, but Proton Pulse with its stylized graphics sucked me in!

[@SteveBenway]

It was the DK2. I liked the effect a lot, but without a higher rez screen, it'll never really hit the spot.

[@mbbmbbmm]

I tried the DK2 yesterday and I don't feel like that at all. :-) Your description sounds more like I would have described the DK1. For me the feeling of realness and presence overrules any shortcomings that are left. I didn't even notice the pixels most of the time. And when I did I found them rather charming and even reassuring in a kind of way. I don't know, maybe it really depends on the demo.

[@rubrsoul1672]

mbbmbbmm hmm it really seems to be how the rift was set up for the person, and what they were actually playing. This seems to be the cause of better/worse experiences from what i've been reading

[@michaelwestmoreland2530]

mbbmbbmm That's one heck of a beautiful description. Pixels charming and reassuring......the implication being that reality really IS a simulation, and the pixels remind us of the actual nature of things?

[@erikgust2]

Wich one is superior in your oppinion? Project Morpheus or Oculus Rift?

[@Slot1Gamer]

Lazy Game Reviews Imagine combining this with a force-feedback rumble chair.. OR one of those force feedback vests ! Perfect for FPS

[@allysonfloyd7154]

I'm curious about how you do a 180 degree turn while wearing this. I understand that your head turns independently of your controls, so if you turn your head 180 degrees (or nearly :-) ) do your controls catch up with the fact you've turned, or do you have to manually turn yourself on the keyboard. If so, doesn't the vision align with you having your head turned backwards causing in game to be body and vision aligned, while out of game body not in line with your eyesight? Im sure it's one of those things where it makes sense ad you're doing it, but not having used it I'm still kinda confused on the mechanics.

[@Yusuke_Denton]

Like in real life, your head/eyes probably track on to an object and automatically recenter as your (in this case virtual) body turns. The experience will be less immersive for games that don't directly support the Rift but actually turn your virtual body and head together.

[@brianrulez4140]

I also was amazed by the end user version...

[@Jraptor1959]

I get really dizzy with FPS shooters and some other games. How do you think it will do with those like me who are subject to this problem?

[@KombatGod]

Wow. Cool review, but I'm mostly surprised at how well I'm able to look at those gameplay footage with my eyes crossed making the 3d effect work.

[@sygos]

Really kickass Daggerfall shirt!

[@TheAIKnowledgeHub]

I'm thinking about getting the final version, but I was wondering something. Does it come with the head tracking stuff?

[@LGR]

Well, the DK2 has head tracking/positional tracking, so I would assume the final product will as well and hopefully even better.

[@Leyvin]

It depends greatly on what works, what doesn't and how much they /have/ to shed from the price point in a mass production situation. Honestly, I doubt the Base Package will have it; simply to keep the price to a point that people will be willing to pay. After all keep in mind this is a specialist device rather than a Display replacement; so chances are they're going to /have/ to hit a $180 (or less) price point. Personally I think what you're going to see are 3 Editions. Core Package (which is just the Headset) Premium Package (Headset + Tracking Camera) Immersion Package (Headset + Kinect for Windows / Xbox) ... Just my guess at what business model they'll go with, could be wrong. - | - Speaking a bit more about the preview itself... one thing I will say is I think most developers are approaching the Oculus the wrong way right now; as just like the Wiimote or Kinect. There is so much focus on making you so absolutely impressed graphically, to try to make you feel like you're actually in a virtual world; that honestly every single example often just fell flat to me; and the reason isn't so much the motion sickness problems that DK1 (and previous trade show versions) had ... but actually more the very simple fact that the more 'realistic' something is, the easier it becomes to find the flaws. This is true in graphics in general, but when those graphics are literally a few inches away from your eyeballs to the point where if you focus you can see the individual pixels; the fact is you're going to find even more flaws with what is happening. Throw in the Motion Disconnect, so any game that isn't a flawless 75Hz (which is what this is running at) for the Resolution you have chosen; and even the smallest performance spike not only immediately feels off, but becomes amplified in how noticeable it is. Yet that isn't necessary to really make people enjoy the technology ... we don't /need/ hyper realistic Flight / Fighter / Racing Simulations to get that enjoyable experience. As said in the Preview itself - the game that just feels the best right now is little more than a 3D Breakout clone, because there are no fancy graphics you want to see every detail of and it is using the technology in a creative way that doesn't stress out ANY hardware. It is just a fun, smooth experience that really showcases how good the technology can be. Those are the kinds of games that really need to focus on supporting the technology, things that are simple that the graphics aren't what you're sat there being impressed about the range of motion. This is technology that we have to be eased in to so either we no longer are so enamoured that we see the flaws, or developers get more comfortable with the technology that they can design around the limitations.

[@ReductioAdAbsurdum]

Leyvin360 If you think they're going to ship a version without head tracking, you've not been following the Rift _at all_. Head tracking is _almost_ the entire point. The entire reason they're doing this, the reason Palmer obsessed over it for years, the reason Carmack got on board, the reason they're taking their time, is because they want to usher in the age of VR. Without head tracking, it's not VR. The reason for the external camera is that it turns out it's one of the only ways to get head tracking right. An alternative is to put a camera on the headset and put tracking dots on the room (which they learned from Valve, who has their own VR research lab), but that is impractical for consumer product. So they put the dots on the headset and the camera in the room. Palmer and Co. have welcomed competitors in the market, like Sony, because again their goal is to usher in VR, not to make money. Palmer has stated that his fear of competitors is not that they'll get pushed out of the market (he'd love that -- it would mean VR is taking off), it's that they'll cut corners and not provide the best possible VR experience and slow the adoption of VR. They need this thing to achieve critical mass, so all the big players come in an pump billions into getting us closer to the metaverse/holodeck/matrix/whatever. There's a chance we might see a higher end version of the Oculus with higher res display, but head tracking is *not* on the chopping block. It's absolutely central to what they're trying to do.

[@Leyvin]

ReductioAdAbsurdum I have no doubt that Oculus have a "Passion" for what they are doing (less so Carmack as frankly this is typical behaviour for him, he has found a new area of interest to throw himself at; Mega Textures, Armadillo, etc... the list does go on) There is nothing wrong with that either, because you know they /do/ want to put a quality product out there; but even with talent and passion for what you're doing - but at the end of the day here there are two extremely important factors at play. A • If you want your project to 'Start a VR Revolution' then you MUST create and maintain a large enough user base actually living up to the hype and then having Developers actually support it rather than being like "Oh this is amazing" supporting it for like a year then deciding that it isn't worth it. Kinect has 40+ Million Units on the Market, let that sink in for a moment. From a financial point of view, it was a "Success"; from a Commercial / Consumer point-of-view, despite v2 being vastly superior no one gives a shit. So much so that despite it being one of Microsoft's big announcements at Gamescom this week, NO ONE is reporting on the fact it just launched for Windows with full Indie Developer support. Simply getting A LOT of units of something out on the market, doesn't automatically guarantee success... and a "VR Revolution" will not only have to for the most part match what the Kinect did in sales figures but also be capable of maintaining public interest once the WOW-Factor wears off. And that honest is incredibly difficult. B • Facebook (or any Fortune 500 Company) doesn't throw $1+ Billion at a company, to not see a return on that investment. To put this in to perspective, the technology and cost of developing the Kinect for Microsoft was $280 Million over 5 years; which includes purchasing the company (Innovision) who were working on the core technology. Regardless of what business model that Oculus themselves follow, and no matter how 'hands off' Facebook usually is ... if it looks like they're going to lose money (A LOT of money) on an investment; they will simply either pull the plug to cut their losses, or do everything they can to ensure they make a profit. Look at Sony... the whole 'Project Morphius' honestly at this point doesn't matter how impressive or far along they are, in all honesty; they can't afford to release it and it NOT be successful. In all honestly, VR is a bad business deal; regardless of who is making it. It is just far to niche and expensive to be popular enough.

[@ReductioAdAbsurdum]

Leyvin360 "less so Carmack as frankly this is typical behaviour for him" Dude, Carmack as been passionate about this for *decades*. How do you think he heard about it? He was a regular lurker on the VR board where Palmer first mentioned his prototype. Carmack had numerous prototypes of his own (including attempts at direct retina projection) with nearly as many chopped-up, hacked-together prototypes as Palmer. This is not a side job. He fucking *quit Id* to be part of something he truly believes is the Next Big Thing. It's clear from your posts that have almost no idea what's going on at Oculus. To release a headset without tracking would be like Sony releasing a Playstation with no graphics card. Oculus is _not_ (merely) a head mounted display. Those already exist. This is a _VR headset_. The buzz around Oculus is _massive_. They can't keep up with demand for their _alpha_ hardware. Every gamer I know is chomping at the bit to buy one. It represents a qualitatively _new_ gaming experience, a level of immersion not possible with regular displays. Their ability to make money on this was guaranteed, but they needed operating capital to get there. They had funds from a variety of investors who placed heavier constraints on them that Facebook did. Part of the Facebook deal was buying all those investors out and restoring autonomy to Oculus. Palmer took the deal because he cares more about ushering in VR than making money. The cash from Facebook isn't going into buying Palmer a yacht, it's going into Oculus, finally giving them the power to fabricate their own hardware, designed for VR, rather than scavenging hardware from mobile phones. Carmack has had more money than he could spend (that Armadillo tested that) for decades. He's doing what he loves. You need to watch some interviews with Palmer and Carmack about the evolution of this technology, how important it is too them that they get it right, that when people experience Oculus they forget about the failed attempts at VR in the 90s.

[@cbarnes86]

Sooooo.... Was that an invitation to come over and try that thing? Lol great video. I'm not going to bother with a DK because when it fully releases, I won't know what to do with it. Can't wait for this thing though!

[@TheSirMajor]

I suggested for you to play The Forest a while back, you said that you'd play it in a more fuller-less buggy state. The devs also plan on making it Rift-compatible. If you were to make a video on it would you use the Oculus?

[@SuperMrminecraftdude]

Is there any vr ish things that just has the screen on your head like this? Thats really the only thing i want.

[@AdaptiveReasoning]

So, when are we going to see your cat review the Oculus Rift box? What are its specs? Is it appropriately satisfying to chew on? Big enough to fit in? Did it come with the delightfully battable packing peanuts or those lame plastic popping sheets?

[@Animated__Freak]

Will you do review of any of the SEGA PC games? (Saw in the background)

[@LGR]

Someday!

[@cosmic_drew]

I can't even get my DK1 to work anymore with my PC.... but the case still looks cool on my shelf. lol

[@russellwhitney1887]

Does it affect the framerate in any way?

[@rodolfocoelho7652]

I was thinking of buying a DK2 for Christmas to play Project CARS, but it gives many errors ??

[@Aeduo]

Hope they come out with the updated Linux SDK soon, or plan on even doing so.

[@neojeets]

Can't wait for Oculus and all the racing and flight sim titles that are sure to follow

Holy fuck, seeing that T-shirt took me to nostalgia in a microsecond.

[@Jontman42]

This is pretty much the most exciting piece of technology for me. When it's at the point where you can just get lost in a virtual world and it feels real, the possibilities are endless.

[@asdf30111]

Most exciting piece of tech I can think of is full blow VR. You become a god by that point. VR is about when better then human AI should be. Full VR will also support uploading you self into a computer. As by then the Computer will be able to store that much info and it needs to to make VR feel 100% real. (Will True VR is a bit bellow transhuman AI and brain uploading but is not that far from it.) I hope I make it to that time when it becomes real.

[@VarietyGamerChannel]

And so are the potential lawsuits/deaths. Gaming is about to get really interesting.

[@jnobile22]
