Fool me, this is real good shit ! [the VR thread]

I like the fact that you can hear this fellas enthusiasm.

Knowing how real the 3D is in Rift, I am beside myself waiting for the DK2.

So he hasn't seen good graphics before? pfft - Didn't really say much about the true rift experience as far as I could tell.

Leap Motion have developed a mount to stick it to the front of the Rift so you can bring your hands into the game....

Might have to get my Leap back.

THE OCULUS HAS LANDED!

Well done on UPS for getting it to me in time for the weekend. It was in Swansea by 5AM but it never got updated for being out for delivery and had a predicted delivery of Monday!

Have an interesting weekend then, Surfr.

Managed an hour of Elite once I'd got it set up correctly. Bit of a faff, but when it is all working.... WOW. I'm now in the process of making small tweaks to the setup (running main monitor at 75Hz in lower res), changing AA/GFX settings to suit.

Flying around planets and stations is now an amazing experience, as is just looking around the Cobra cockpit!

So what do people recommend for demos? HL2, DCS and LFS are on my list so far. I understand Asseto Corsa is working with DK2 as well? Would like to try some non-sim type games too.

Morpheous on PS4 not OR, but this is the future from the makers of Tekken.

Morpheus is not a bad thing, it has some points vs oculus.

I am not sure if I have the latest latest version of it but certainly is good, if they are going to modify/improve even some more some stuff Is going to be very interesting.

EDIT : give me an x rated goat simulator and I may be sold

Ooh looks good!

My DK2 is on order - itching for it to arrive.

I'm currently on a 'micro-retirement' from the games industry so having a few months off to catch up on games and stuff. Plan is to do *something* with the Oculus but I'm not sure what yet!

You are an X-rated goat simulator.

OK ... I asked Yak .. I think we can say it now ...

What you see in the previous screenshots it's not ( just DK2 ) ... it's Samsung Gear VR ...

If you think you've been impressed by what you seen so far on OR ... well .. Samsung Gear VR allows me to say "goes beyond" ...

First time I saw it my impression been "this thing is a gimmick, it cannot work" ... 5 mins later it's been :

HOLY CRAP FOOK ME !!!!

You haven't seen anything in VR if you haven't tried Samsung Gear VR .. it's ... IT'S ...

We all have to bless Carmack and his implementation of the so called "Timewarp" algorithm ...

Now back to work I have LOT to do
