You don't know what Oculus Rift is ? Take a look here :
Youtube Video OR

And a forum entry:
Forum OR Support

Virtual Reality will become Reality soon ;)

And i really hope that trackmania will be compatible. Imagine it as if you are really IN the car, looking
around, i really think it could be amazing...

Well the cons are:
1.) Heavy Glasses. Of course "OculusRift" is still in development .. the DevKit 2 hast a weight of 0.97 lbs (without cable) thats about 500 g or half a kilo so i think you can't wear it long..
2.) Seasickness or simulator sickness ... thats a thing many people will have, but as the developers say, they will
handle these symtomps for most players

Well I have a beamer with a 2 meter picture and playing too long in fullscreen makes me sick too ;) ;)

You still can play an hour or so with the glasses and then switch back to monitor...

What do you think about virtual reality? Will it be a reality soon? Will it change of how games are played?

Greetings
Kata

I have yet to try it, but I read on MP forums that MP is compatable with Oculus.... to that end I have pre-ordered a DK2 (development kit 2) from them, if I succeed in getting it to work then I can surely post something about it


:wait: :wait: :wait: :wait: Pre orders not expected to ship until August!

I've tried Oculus Rift at local technology store. Really interesting tool, but man it makes your head hurt :d
I don't feel bad on rollercoasters etc but that one just makes you feel like in a faint. Really fun tool though, imagine the possibilities in games!
