    Did Anyone Buy An Oculus Rift?

    I'm specifically referring to the consumer version/CV1. If you did buy one, have you gotten it? If so, how do you like it?

    I'm currently contemplating picking one up this summer once they're no longer back ordered, or potentially even buying a Vive (not really sure on either/one at all).

    I've glimpsed people commenting about their TOS, but no I haven't; what's in them?

    JUST DO IT

    But yeah $800 is definitely pricey, but Vive includes two motion controllers and I don't believe their delays are as bad as Oculus + Vive has a built in cinema feature and will be compatible more so with Steam than Oculus already is.

    Oculus is still that solid $700, but doesn't even include touch controllers which I imagine will be at least $100.

    Yeah tell me about it, all of Steam's suggested/featured games are VR now c.c I wish they had a way of toggling off VR game ads for those who haven't purchased it

    Went with the HTC vive, motion controls are worth it. Not waiting longer for them

    Yeah I consider the mobile ones more of a gimmick , once you try an Oculus Rift or HTC Vive, you will be absolutely amazed.

    My vive story , bought it once it came out thought it was going to be the coolest dopest thing ever. Well coudnt use it in my room because you need a lot of space lmao you have to set the 2 motion sensors up on each side of the room. No big deal I just set my computer up in my basement . It's super comfortable once you get used to the weight. But honestly once you play it 4-5 times it becomes one of those things you use once a week, you can't play with irl friends who are over like a Xbox, and too top it off my basement kind of creepy and whenever I have it on I feel like Freddy or Jason is gonna come out from under the stairs and kill me :( for 800$ it's definetly not worth it . I honestly use it more for Netflix now then gaming , there's a new audio strap for it that's pretty comfy so chilling and watching movies for hours isn't bad at all
