No prices yet. I may never financially recover from this.

    Been waiting for this vr headset to release for years, only to find they’ve used lcd’s instead of OLED screens. I’m so disappointed and pissed.

      VR is the most expensive toy you will use for a couple of hours before getting bored of it.

        Depends on what kind of person you are. I know of individuals who practically live in VR.

          I guess that’s fair.

          I found most VR games I tried to be shallow experiences. Resident Evil was cool but it made me feel motion sickness after about 30 minutes.

            It’s much better for games that were designed around VR in mind.

            Some of my personal favorite recommendations:

            • Beat Saber
            • Super Hot
            • I Expect you to Die (trilogy)
            • Half Life Alyx
            • The Myst and Riven remakes

            I’ll probably use VR mostly to play sims. Elite Dangerous, X4, I also have a few racing sims.

            But ultimately depends on the price. I’m not going to sell my organs for what is essentially a really cool immersive gimmick.
