I am very anxious to get my hands on one of these. Has anybody here tried one out or know somebody who has one? I really wanted to get one a few months ago and almost ordered it but they are still considered "developer kits". Does anybody know when a consumer model will be made available??? The technology that makes it work isn't as complex as you might think which is why the price is surprisingly low so I figured the consumer model would be available by the end of this year.
I'd like to hear your opinions of the Oculus Rift and whether you plan to get one when made available. I mean, as far as virtual reality for the average consumer goes, this thing is way ahead of the competition. Everything else i've seen that's tried to do what the Oculus Rift does just came up short. Way short. It boggles the mind a bit when you see what it's capable of and then see a price tag of 300USD. If they don't announce a date for a consumer model by Xmas, I might just go ahead and pick up the DevKit. Or should I be more patient? Ugh... idk
Watch this and tell me you don't want to try that
