The Oculus Rift Thread

My DK2 finally shipped to me today, took a while to get it up and working! Apparently my logitech software have conflict with DK2, had to uninstall my logitech stuff and manually start up the DK2 runtime to get it working.

Only tried a few demos and the first impression is OMG! It has to be the most immersive gaming experience ever! You literally feels like you are in the game world. Really can't wait to get Skyrim and Half Life 2 working with it, since those are the current titles with rift beta support at the moment.

Here are the few demos I tried so far.





The first one was some amusement park thrill ride. The amount of depth just astonishing! Especially when you are way up in the air and ejecting yourself from the ride, definitely got the feeling that I was gonna die LOL

Titans of Space is by far the best demo so far. Feels like a ride you'd find in a space museum. Head tracking was done extremely well in this demo.

4th Floor Studio had very immersive graphics, the lighting was top notch, even had dust particles reflecting the sun light. It would be a demo of whats to come when implemented into real world gaming. I'd expect the level of detail in GT6 with rift mode to be as detail as the 4thflr studio demo had. VR is gonna be great with non-gaming environments in the future as well. Especially real estate or interior design firms. Imagine previewing your new home with VR and all could be done in your own comfort.
