i find it amazing that out of the blue VR is now publically available and anybody can buy a headset and start playing games. but it started too early. its expensive, the games look cheap, and most of them require high end PC's to run games. but i have a feeling it will be like 4K where the first 4KTV was like $50,000 and now you can pick one up for a few hundred.

I was in with psvr, but now I'm waiting to see if Sony is actually going to support it or put all their attention on Neo.
A couple good vr game reviews will easily persuade me though. Just not pre-ordering anymore.

With OR and Vive it's like, do I buy/build a PC now or wait for 14nm gpus and zen cpu, which is how I got in console gaming :) I have no other reason to own a high end PC so too much money for a few VR games.

I have the Vive already. It's definitely a mixed bag, to the point where I wouldn't recommend it unless you have quite a bit of disposable income or you really must have the latest tech.

First off, the motion tracking is truly amazing. It really is 1:1 with the headset and the controllers. And I love the controllers too.

My big complaint is with the image quality and the screen door effect. Most reviewers have been pretty forgiving of this, but it gives me the feeling that I'm looking at a low resolution screen through a set of scuba goggles.

Also, most of the games are overpriced and underdeveloped. It is very reminiscent of the Wii with most of the titles relying too heavily on the motion controls and not much else for their entertainment value. You will get bored of most of the current VR games very quickly.

Considering how well the motion controls already work, and how quickly screen/GPU tech has been progressing over the last couple of years, I feel like VR is going to have a future. But for now it's definitely for the hardcore and people who can look past the current limitations of the technology.

Nope. Proud non-supporter of VR. What we have barely qualifies as VR. And as of now, I have tried the Vive at GameStop. Not a fan and I really dont think it will take gaming in a new direction. If I'm wrong and in 5 years VR is more popular than the Wii motion controls then I'll gladly eat crow for this statement. But as of now I'm not convinced of "VR"

Not really. I might buy a gear VR soon just to get some prawn vr experience while I wait for the higher tier headsets to be cheaper (since porn doesn't really need zomg sensors and etc) but overall, neh so far.

Yea it might be one of those, you gotta experience it to believe it but so far, I don't see anything that truly makes VR essential to my gaming experience apart from a bit more of an immersive experience for a pretty high price. Maybe in the future I will be more of a believer but until then, nope.

This technology will be put to better use in other non-gaming mediums, I agree with that much. But for gaming, I would have to disagree

I'm highly skeptical this VR will work out in the long run. I don't think the tech is there yet and economically, there are many hurdles to overcome.

I'll wait until quantum computers become mainstream.

Im a believer but the only platform thats going to actually be able to push VR properly is going to be PC. VR is the next level of immersion that we cant get solely by increasing polygons and textures. Its going to be awesome assuming you have the proper hardware to back it up

I feel like I was born just in time for VR :) I was a believer since the first time I tried out an oculus demo at indiecade!

In it's current form, I am not. With how I imagine good VR being, it'll be awhile til we get there...
