i know i know, you have been staring at the "order now" button on the oculous rift website.
and let me tell you something if you did actually go through with it you will find that it was worth every penny (until the CV1 comes then its just a waste)
and yesterday i tried it and OH MA GAWD it was...it was......i dont have words to describe the feeling on how its like to transport yourself into elite dangerous. no youre not looking at elite through a screen youre IN elite.
i mean my anacondas body is MUCH longer than i have thought it would have been just staring at my screen. i mean i couldnt even throw a football to the end of it if i wanted to. and arriving in a system and seeing the sun....its huge, i could not believe how amazingly huge it was i mean my jaw dropped. im writing this review because i just got home and wanted to share with you on how amazing the dk2 is and how well FD did on it.
i mean just wow. and last thing i want to add is i remember heading towards a station i accidentally hit the boost and was coming at the station, i actually felt scared, like in a spaceship about to crash into a station...scared. the whole gut dropped and everything. its every bit the hype as everyone says it is.
BUT i recommend people NOT get the DK2 or DK1 and just simply wait till the CV1, unless you have 350 plus shipping to blow. but instead purchase your self a "Google Carboard" which basically puts lens in front of your phone and you can try out basic demos for free!! because after i tried the dk2, i tried my friends iphone with the cardboard with lens and it defiantly was not the same "immersion" you dont feel like you are as in the game as the dk2 does, not even close, but you can save yourself about 300$ (assuming you own a smartphone) and just try it out like that and see what the future holds. its only 1% of what the dk2 offers you, it wont bring immersion like the dk2 but it will hold you off till the cv1 comes.
hope this helps someone.
now that i think about it....i cant go back to a flat screen again....i feel like i just watched blu ray and went back to a black and white tv. CV1 here we come.
