Who getting a VR headset?

[Marsh2907]

Just wanted to know if anyone else is getting or pre ordered a VR headset.

Personally myself I've pre order the HTC Vive. Which I can't wait to get my hands on.

Vote and discuss.

I am thinking about getting one but the price though...
Seems amazing and brings a whole new experience to gaming but i'm gonna wait and check how it will turn out first.

I want one, but only later down the road when it proves it has purpose and is worth the money.

Ye the price is quite alot but guess that's the trade off for been an early adopter. Hopefully goes off really well as I see it as the future of gaming.

Well it does have a purpose as been next step in the evolution of gaming but saying that don't think VR will be just limited to gaming. The price will go down within 6 months to a year as most technology does.

I hope so, I just hope it won't be liked Virtual boy and flop so bad that it never gets heard of again.

I can't afford one with my current way of living. When I get rich some day, I'll order ten though ^^

I'll get one in a couple years. Im assuming that the price will drastically go down. I also don't see the point in getting a vr headset other than a couple decent games and THAT OTHER THING (if you catch my drift). However it will probably be worth it more once it takes off with game devs.

 

[All Games Must Die]

Yeah I most certainly will get one of them probably in about a year. I will say that I tried the Oculus in Japan and it was incredible. That's the thing, these companies need to figure out a way to have people actually try them, it would turn so many non believers into believers.

I really wanted to get one for trackmania turbo ... but i dont think its gonna happen...

Im still kinda on the fence myself... id like to try a real unit to see if its as good as i imagine...

I really want to get one, but I would have to buy a new processor since Nvidia says that my current Build isn't compatible

 

[Marsh2907]

Ye seems like for a lot of people it either the high price or their PC isn't powerful enough to run it effectively. Thanks for comment so far. Very interesting to see everyone's reasons + views on this.

 

[LanokirX]

I already have one, is cool to use, though as mention, takes a lot of the pc and I can only play some games. Not to mention it easy to get sick using it to much. *Looks at War Thunder*

 

[Wedvin]

In my opinion it's not really worth buying them since they are so new, waiting a while will save money and improve the VR experience when you eventually buy one!

 

[OneBarRouter]

I feel like it would be cool, but I also feel like I would get a headache, so....
possibly

 

[TechnicalCakeMix]

There's no way my work computer will run one, so slim chance there. The Playstation VR interests me, but the pricetag is nauseating.

 

[Tudi Kovin]

Man, I wish I could, but both my budget and tiny room doesn't allow it.. I might buy a VR headset once I move to a bigger apartment.. Prices should also be cheaper there

 

[nologic]

My computer will support it, but I don't see a market for it yet. The lack of games and the side effects of using it.

I have 2 vr one you get for free with s7 edge and i already had oculus rift and gonna preorder PS4 VR (project morpheus) every one should have atleast one to entertain them or watch a movie when you are home alone.
