Look guys don't kick me in the nuts too hard but I've been away from gaming for a long time. I got simulator sickness after a while and life has been shall we say a bit difficult for 8 years. But I was wondering what your experiences have been in AH and etc with VR headsets. I'd like to try one and see what I think before I consider buying one or wishing for one. Anybody got any input?

I love my Oculus Rift. The graphics are not as nearly good as my 1440 p monitor, but the incredible feel of immersion far outweighs any downsides to me.

Check your local Malls or Shopping Centers a lot now have VR centers where you can try VR for a modest fee. One just opened in our local mall with 50 machines that offer over 150 different games you can try. They now have some that not only have VR but combined VR with motion machines. Try before you buy…

It does require a system with a beefy Graphics card though. Biggest complaints I have heard from those in "Not For Me" group.... Price of equipment:Headset and probable Up-grade to PC and the Resolution/Screen Door effect ..Then Motion sickness :uhoh If money is tight...I would say wait on VR engine improvements. Its WONDERFUL, IMO but the cost didnt stick in my mind either. As Daddyace stated..resolution sort of sucks. Its NOT what I expected,but have come see through it. The feeling of BEING RIGHT THERE made it easy to look past the flaws. As far as motion sickness, No issues with me, but some like even Skuzzy cant even deal with TIR without getting sick, so that you wont know till you know. I suggest first thing BEFORE you check out VR(if funds are an issue) run the Occulus compatibility or Windows Mixed Media Compatibility programs to better see what you need to upgrade if any :uhoh Trust me I did it backwards....I tested VR, Bought it....had to upgrade Graphics card(not absolutely nes. mind you but was very close)...screwed up instalation of Graphics card...had Occulus already with computer in the shop :furious YUP....BestBuy RUN....Wasnt gonna look at the rift sensors sitting un used VR WAS BAD ARSE. I was a kid again...Also why I DO NOT GO in a Gun store with ANYTHING close to currency :x

True, TIR makes me sick, but the VR headsets do not. Once properly adjusted it simply feels very natural.
