So, when will someone contact Oculus to sponsor a TF2 lan, using those virtual reality glasses? I’m pretty sure there was an Assembly Lan in which you had to use 3d glasses. Basically the same thing.
Also, discuss
Nobody even discussing this, I assume because of two issues :
– 300$
– It will definitely mess up your aim and slow your movement /rotation.
maybe another thread at “general off-topic” under “oculus rift” would be better.
300 Buckaroos no thnx, looks cool though.

44-minute demo of various classes on frontier
that actually looks like a very very nice 15min toy like gamepad for pc :D
not for 300 $ though, but if it would come down to ~150$ it would be really cool alternate way to just experience 3d gaming
$300 is cheap for what it is, seriously. That’s (partly) why it’s getting so much attention.
And it is $300 for the developer kit. The consumer version will probably be around $150, considering the components of the device are around $100.

Hahaha. An iPhone costs $200 to make and sells for $600. There are many other costs involved besides parts.
A friend of mine ordered the developer kit in october or something. And hes getting it at around end of april. Gonna test it for myself. Looks impressive altough I’m probably gonna be movement sick.

In my line of work we buy a few ‘components’ for around 3 English pounds. Once assembled they sell for around 100 English pounds or more. It takes around 3 minutes to assemble them.
What’s that you say? Profit margins? Yes.

Looks pretty cool, especially with the tilting and seeing your own body.
Maybe I’ll get it in the future, just for lulz.
good stuff, except you look like a lab monkey with that thing on your face

Forecasting, Sales Estimating, Production estimating, Purchasing, Production planning, Material control, Warehousing, Despatching, Invoicing.. And then of course paying all the people that do these things, plus electricity and let’s not forget coffee and lunch.
