They changed the way Thrill of the Fight works. Much more fun to play. It is a really good game for working out.

Big nose? Haha. No wear on mine there. I have not checked on anything of that level. It does indeed look non replaceable. Time to do some checking!I've been concerned about the long term wear of the soft fabric around the lenses. Mine is already starting to show wear where a persons nose bridge is (so right in the middle between the lenses). It doesn't look like a easily replaceable thing.

Wow. Yeah, that glass is close! How does she like the Rift(VR) compared to a 2D game/setup?And yes.....the glass gets rattled a lot
This is my 4 year old. She has a small towel she uses on the back of her head to make the strap fit. (looks like a hair bow in the picture)

I have mine set to 1.5 or 1.6.Has anyone changed their cache amount on the Google Earth VR app and what did you set it to? I changed mine yesterday and also changed my SSampling number to 1.1.

Not I. I am waiting for a huge leap in resolution. The controllers on the Rift work just fine for me so it's about the head unit.
could you elaborate on the "spring" that takes up the slack? having a hard time visualizing this.I hav a spring taking up the slack so it doesn't get tangled in my feet.
I put a 16" soft spring attacked to my wire rack. The other end is on the rift cord which makes about an 8" loop(slack). I also have usb extenders to the HMB so if I pull to hard it just pulls out of the extenders attached to the wire rack.could you elaborate on the "spring" that takes up the slack? having a hard time visualizing this.
Anyone watch 3D movies on the Rift?
Guess it a stupid question but i have to ask.
Lets say i'm playing Project cars 2 with Rift. If i lower the resolution in the game so the monitor shows i smaller window of the game, will the resolution change on the Rift as well?
If so, what's the best resolution regarding performance/graphic?
New Oculus owner here and my god, this thing is the best invention ever! A little bit of squeezy feeling in my stomach in quickly moving scenes but I think I can tough it out eventually just as I can read in a car after getting used to period.
And yeah, horror games are going to be amazing. Just tried a Face Your Fears free demo and after 5 minutes I decided Nope, thats enough for now. My pulse is high as it is after long day at work. I can't wait to try Alien Isolation with this though!
Welcome to the club!
It is quite something those first few days. You'll quickly want to try everything in the store which is the major downside at the moment: not too much out there worth the money (in my opinion) due to the length of the experiences.
If you haven't tried RoboRecall yet, get to it!
It is on download queue already. I will also buy VorpX as soon as possible and try Fallout 4 at some point. Found a very good video on the youtube which explains how to set it up so it works well in VR. I will eventually get the official VR version too once it is released.
It worked great on Bioshock.I’ve read that VorpX is a really mixed bag and can be a real hassle as to configuration and results - so don’t get your hopes up too high with it!
As to free must haves, also be sure to check out Google VR, The Lab, and Echo Arena.
As to first purchases, Lone Echo and Onward would be at the very top of my list. If you are into sims, Project Cars 2 and Elite Dangerous are also very good.

Also Arizona Sunshine. I think I played it through 3x. Very fun.Holy shit the Robo Recall was fun. I mean, it is not a good game for my current tastes (RPG player) but if you ever have a feeling you want to feel like a badass this is the game to play. Everything feels so fluid, you are naturally doing (clumsy) Matrix dodges and shooting robots with deadly accuracy, after a little training that is. While I am still skeptical about the teleportation in general in this game it feels rather natural and fits the hectic arcade shooter style like a glove. I will definetly play it again. I feel like this is going to be an excellent party game, with friends evaluating your silly looking "performance" and such.

I have VorpX and tried it on a load of different games, and retry them all when new updates come out. My recommendation, don't buy it. It's not worth it. Buy two proper VR games with the $40. There are loads of proper VR games out there. And the VR versions of Doom 3 and Alien Isolation are much better then playing through VorpX.
Yeah but there does not seem to be that many proper m+kb experiences that I would be interested in, except maybe the Arizona Sunshine. And Minecraft VR except they screwed that game up by not allowing mouse look up and down, just left and right. Mictosoft, I don't want neck problems by looking straight up for long periods of time when chopping down trees, thank you.
After a quick check the great majority of games in the store are short shovelware stuff which I could not care less about. I will gamble with VorpX at some point and see what I can come up with.
If you check reddit, the majority of people who actually bought Vorpx don't think it's that good. YMMV of course.
You only want to play games that use the mouse and keyboard???
Ewww. Playing on a keyboard and mouse?! That is so old school retro.......Either m+kb or gamepad, former just happens to be my preferred method. First person, sitdown experience and NO TELEPORTATION is what I am looking for. With my minecraft VR testing it only two minutes of getting used to it, nausea was gone and experience got wonderfully immersive until the lack of full mouse look started to piss me off.
So I know I can take "locomotion" (i think thats the term to describe it in VR?) with ease and Oculus can technically deliver the experience so the question is what other games do give what I want?
Frankly, standing up and waving around with Touch is far, far secondary. As awesome as Robo Recall was it is still what I consider a gimmick game. A Kinect 3.0 game (though done right this time) that is fun for one hour at the time but you get bired of it sooner than later. I have hard time figuring out how can you binge game with Touch standing up.
Though there is also possibility of using Touch sitting down but I have not played that way yet so I have no idea how that might work.
