EA gets no right to make any claim about the game industry.
that said, i would probably get valve vr over carmacks,
that said though, beyond basic gameplay, i want a headset to
-be able to simulate a 9 or so monitor desktop.
-have an out faceing webcam so i dont need to take it off if someone wants to talk to me
-be low profile, not because of weight, but because whatever headphones they give me will suck, and i want it to comfortably be on my face with my own headphones as well
-must at least be 1280x720 per eye, yes i know that would be big, but at the same time i want that space so i never see anything but screen no matter where my eyes are looking, plus the detail they would bring. also, 2 1280x720 screens still comes in at less to render than 1 1920x1080
whichever vr setup supports what i want, or supports more of what i want, will be the one i chose.
that said, i doubt i would chose a 1920x1080 per eye display, just because of the setup you would need to run games on it properly, and lcds look like hell when when they aren't in native sizes so playing at lower resolutions would just be painful. if they had a multi desktop simulator though, that would be the best of both worlds.
