Aside from the pricetag, which will obviously change over time, my main concerns are that it is too heavy, clunky, or odd feeling to wear for any extended period of time, and that it would feel uncomfortable after a while. Even my expensive headphones start to bug me after a while. I am glad to hear folks so committed after only a single try.. it must be amazing. |

It's so light, you hardly notice it.

I only got to play once on Sunday but yeah it was freaking awesome. It was so weird because I had the XBOX controller, headphones, and rift in my lap. Decided to put the rift on first. Adjusted it on my head a bit and let my eyes calibrate. Started to look around the ship to check it out. Then I realized oh hey, I need headphones. So I looked down to my lap to grab them. I freaked out for a second when I realized there was nothing there. It was then equally odd trying to grab the headphones and place them on my head while not actually being able to see them.
I agree with Jarod about the game sucking without a rift. I could see how they COULD do it, but the biggest thing is why you would WANT to do it.
I expected the initial shot out of the launch tunnel to feel more real I guess. That part felt very much flat to me which is odd because I have read other reviews that said that part was awesome. However once I was in the vast expanse of space everything suddenly seemed to click. The rift and controls felt very natural and about 10 seconds into the actual fighting I had forgotten I was using a headset at all. The actual game right now seems pretty damn polished and if they released it as is for just straight PVP matches I would gladly pay for it. I can only seeing this get better. I don't normally like FPS or other shooting style games but I could see myself being very addicted to this game.
The rift hardware itself is pretty damn nice. When I first put the display on everything was really blurry. I don't know if my eyes needed time to adjust or it was my physical adjusting of the device that finally brought things into focus. I can really see this thing being the future of gaming. I am a hardcore race fan and I can't wait to play Forza with something like this! |

Oh, gods..... Forza on the Oculus.
That's just even more of a reason to buy one. And, I'm glad to know I'm not just going fanboy-nuts-o on this, here. Or, at the very least, that if I am hallucinating awesomeness, I'm not the only one.

Was just thinking.... I want a compilation of gameplay footage from Valkyrie so I can throw together a video to Aces High by Iron Maiden. For some reason I just feel that song is incredibly appropriate. Maybe it's the subject matter... :)
