Gaming could get a lot more real, thanks to the Oculus Rift Virtualy Reality Headset. The new gadget is expected to make games more realistic than they've ever been before. Are you interested?

Palmer Luckey is in a good place right now. Everyone, from industry luminaries like John Carmack and Gabe Newell, to average gamers at Quakecon, have hailed his Oculus Rift Virtualy Reality Headset as the sort of Holy Grail technology gamers have been chasing for years – truly immersive and responsive virtual reality.

Too bad they don't have motion controls. That would make this a thousand times better.

As long as it's not multi-player I'd try it. I don't want to have to deal with bratty children flinging insults and acting moronic.

I used to be huge on VR, but then I played the wii. I'm gonna stick with my Dualshock controller thank you.

I don't have a lot of expectations for this (Remember Nintendo doing this...? Complete disaster), but if this becomes big enough, it'll create competition, and thus lead to bigger and better things. Hopefully in the next decade or two, the public will get a genuinely well built VR system.

Yup, it's the future of gaming really. When these systems get so fluid that you can play the game like you are in the game...it'll be win.
