    TPCast’s Second Generation Wireless VR System Addresses Original Model’s Shortcomings

    Right now TPCast has 100% market share, so they better make all the earnings, before the other solutions come to market. (HTC, etc.)

    Thank you guys for doings this, I remember browsing your site for hours before buying amy 320MB 8800GS in order to play Crysis, and it kicked my butt. This brought back memories.

    Virtuix Cancels Omni Pre-Orders Outside US, Says International Shipments 'Unfeasible'

    I think that got a little bit too pricey. I have a feeling they are done for, unless gyms and gaming places start buying them.

    The Oculus Touch Motion Controller Review

    So it appears that the Oculus setup costs more than the HTC Vive, and for someone who does not have Donald Trump hands it might be uncomfortable? In addition, it appears that the Facebook Rift is not that easy to use for non-gamers, which to me seems to be very unusual for Facebook.

    Best PC Virtual Reality Headsets (Archive)

    As an early Oculus fan, and a current HTC Vive user, I have to say that not having the room scale significantly diminishes the VR experience. The two hand controllers make the 200 dollar price difference absolutely worth it. Every VR experience I have had would have been horrendous without...

    Wireless PC-Connected VR HMDs Might Not Be Far Off: Quark VR Made A Wireless Vive Transmitter

    As a user of the HTC Vive, neither the wires nor the weight of the HMD are a problem in regards of use. Of course I would prefer to have it wireless, but as an early adopter, the device is doing a great job. As I recall they were talking that 5G speeds could replace the wires and reduce lag...

    Like VR Backpacks? Try Intel’s VR Vest

    I think it is an interesting idea. It would be interesting if they made those computers robust enough to be used for military training games where the whole landscape was designed virtually to improve soldiers' (or us overweight gamers who want to lose weight) reaction times.

    Well.... considering that the Steam Vive has been out in those countries for a while now.... does anyone really care about the Oculus anymore?

    Oculus Will Ship Rift HMDs Within 2-4 Days, Brings Demos To Microsoft Stores

    Too late Oculus, the HTC Vive experience at the Microsoft store is much better than the Oculus one. I am wondering if it will be better for the Vive sales if they are able to compare Oculus with Vive right there at the store?

    Oculus Backpedals From Heavy-Handed DRM Policies, Headset Check Removed From Latest Runtime

    Perhaps Oculus finally realized that when your closest competitor has a product that can be bought and shipped today, which is better than the product Oculus has (which is hard to get a hold of), at least they can make some money from their store.

    HTC Vive Online Orders No Longer Delayed, Retail Exposure Increases

    When Oculus came up with the Dev Kid 1 I was tempted to buy it right away. Due to having job and kid it wasn't feasible for me to tinker around with it and get it to work so I figured I will wait for the final product. Delay after delay, I stayed an Oculus fan and was extremely excited to get...

    Announcing The Tom's Community Indie VR Roundtable! Submit Your Questions

    How difficult is it to adopt current games to existing VR systems without lag (I have tried VorpX, and am very disappointed)? Do you have to have 90Hz on the display for every game? How much power do we need to have decent quality, as today's games can barely get 60fps on ultra settings? (When...
