Wireless is iffy. The battery life on those headsets would be terrible (they're very powerful). Right now they're powered by usb. I can't imagine how big of a battery they'd need or how terrible the battery life would be if these things were wireless


i didn't think about that....:ohhh:


backpack batteries could save us...:blessed:

I'll be in a virtual world all day tomorrow. The Rift has so many more games. I can't wait. Impressions will be posted tomorrow night.

He says it's great and recommends it and for early adopters to get the rift.
He gave it a 7/10 and said he'd give it an 8/10 with touch controllers. He also said it's nothing like the "piece of shyt Kinect" and VR gaming will be amazing when more killer apps come and price drops. He said it's not a replacement.

@Ciggavelli come back to reality and give us that review!!! this nikka might be trapped in the matrix y'all:dwillhuh:
My internet is all spotty because of the flooding here in Houston. I haven't been able to download the software all day, so I couldn't try it out :mjcry:

Here's hoping I can try this tomorrow. fukking rain man, shyt....stop :damn:

My review will be delayed until tomorrow night. I can't wait to try this shyt out. It's so frustrating that I couldn't download the software today. It's an 800mb file. I got to 600 so many times, but once the internet goes out, the download goes back to 0 :what:

It's just not happening tonight. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny all day, so here's hoping my internet doesn't go out. I REALLY wanna play with this thing :mjcry:
