First off, if you haven't heard about this thing you might not want to continue, you will want to play this ASAP but its not for consumer release for another year.

That said I have purchased and received my development kit roughly a month ago and can only say that this thing is the future. There are so many demos and videos I want to show you but its so hard to understand what you are seeing if you haven't tried it.

I just have to say Half Life 2 & Episode 1 is A fucking mazing with this thing. (haven't done episode 2 yet i'm sure its just as amazing) Hopefully you don't get motion sickness though as some of my friends couldn't cope with it. I had no problems spending 2+ hours the first day in it but after 15 minutes my friend had to take a break, so YMMV.

Currently not too many games have native support for the Rift so I have to used 3rd party 3D injectors to get it working. These have various caveats but in the end they get the job done. A newer version of a free driver is coming out the 28th of this month so I will post back here with some of my experiences with it.

Reaction compliation:

Gameplay videos:
Skyrim:

Minecrift:

Euro Truck Simulator:

Lunar Flight:

Totally heard about this thing. My dad brought it up again recently. Lol I read about this today and my sis was like, what do you want for Christmas.. She was like, sure. Thanks Mega lol..

Other than that, this thing is so badass. I can't imagine not playing without it once you get used to it. I mean who wouldn't want a virtual reality headset that isn't too expensive yet is gaining support of games through multiple means?

Hopefully they give a discount or don't change much to the final product from the developer one because buying another one later kind of might suck.. xD

Major changes... its going from a 1280x800 resolution to 1080p or greater (possible 2k). It will include another sensor to add positional tracking that will detect leaning. Possible dual front facing cameras for AR ability(unlikely but not debunked). Better ventilation within the rift itself for helping people who naturally sweat more(clears up foggy lenses issues).

So there are some major changes incoming, this unit really is for developers or enthusiasts who will be grabbing the consumer version a year from now as well. I'm not trying to deter you from this amazing device but you need to know that the consumer version will be leaps better and if your only getting one that's the version you should wait for.

Heh, probably going to wait until next year then once the actual finished product comes out here. I was actually looking into how Sony decided to make its own VR headset for PS4 and PC. The price is like somewhere in the realm of 2,000. I literally laughed. I am pretty sure it was all a tactic to try and scare folks away from a technology that to me isn't really a gimmick but is really something that has been sought after as an actual next gen setup for many years now..

Made a video for the demo of Legend of Zelda on the Rift. This was a very fun game to play, i'm really looking forward to playing the full version in a month.
