Prices notwithstanding, is there anything about the Rift S which makes it objectively better than the Odyssey+, or anything about the Odyssey which makes it worse?

So I've had a 2017 era Rift kit sitting unopened in the box for over a year now. This is the version immediately previous to the Rift S and Quest releases. What games or apps are must haves or must experience in your opinion? Keep in kind that I can't do S or Quest exclusive titles - they...

I have an Oculus Rift S that is in excellent condition. I purchased it a few months ago from Best Buy (will include original receipt). I've probably used it for about 10 hours total. I still have everything that came with the retail package. Included: Oculus Rift S Heaset 2x Oculus Touch...

So, I searched here and through Google and can't find the answer to this question. My company bought the Rift S because we originally had the Rift and we like the simplicity of the Rift S compared to the original Rift. We had a Unreal Engine 4 VR thing that we showed to people using the Rift but...

I was unable to fully immerse myself into VR when I had an Oculus Rift due to the poor display quality and extreme discomfort from wearing it over glasses. It's a few years later now and my tablets are having trouble streaming high quality video, leaving my Note 8 as the only mobile device I...

At GDC, Facebook unveiled their next PC virtual reality headset. Among other things, the Oculus Rift S features a "higher pixel density" and "improved optics," but doesn't divulge many technical details. According to UploadVR, the new headset now uses a single 2560x1440 LCD instead of dual...

Oculus founder Palmer Lucky many not work for Facebook's VR division anymore, but apparently, he's still supporting some of his company's earliest adopters. In a blog post, he acknowledges that long term use of Oculus Rift CV1 kits can lead to the failure of one, or both, of the headset's...

I'm selling a complete Oculus Rift VR bundle with everything you need to get up and running. It includes: Headset 2 touch controllers remote controller 4 sensors + covers USB + HDMI extension cables The headset is a engineering sample meaning it doesn't have the foam padding, but I am...

I recently picked up a rift bundle for $140 and came with everything in box (headset, 2 touch controls, and 2 sensors). Are there any good exclusives for the rift? What's the best way to clean the headset? I noticed I get outside light from the nose area on the face foam. Is there a foam...

If you missed out on the Black Friday/pre-Christmas sales, it looks like Amazon has the Rift on sale again for $349: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073X8N1YW

If you missed out on the Black Friday or pre-Christmas sales, looks like Amazon has the Rift on sale again for $349: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073X8N1YW

I bought one of these. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06XY5WKXW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I did not really have a place to put it up. I now have a whole room just for me! So I put this kit on it to see how good it is. It worked out beautiful. The cord is up in the air...

Last week, Oculus co-founder Brendan Iribe left the company, and Techcrunch seemed to think that it wasn't on the best of terms. An "inside source" claimed that Facebook canceled the "Rift 2", and now a "a source familiar with the matter" is going into more detail. The Oculus Rift's successor...

Facebook's Oculus subsidiary is testing the waters for investments into location-based VR centers such as movie theaters and arcades in malls. They seek to strike deals with the producers of VR content and the owners of the establishments to use and promote Oculus products. They also seek to...

Hey all. Hoping someone with more computer science book learnin' can explain why my Rift keeps taking a dump on me. I'm doing room scale HMD + sensors, so 1 HDMI and 4 USB ports total (at least 3 USB 3.0 ports, ideally). Currently running into the issue on my Gigabyte Pheonix SLI x99 with my...

I hate getting lost in my room-scale space. I was thinking it would be neat to approach your barrier, when the grid popped up, and maybe the front of the room the grid would appear a different color so you knew this was the front of your play area. Is there anything like this available? Thanks.

Anybody checked out Orbus yet? I've got about 5-10 hours in it but it has gotten kind of stale...maybe because I'm a bit aimless or have been playing solo. For those not in the know, Orbus is an early access VR MMO. I haven't progressed beyond firearms yet but everything is very much a manual...

I picked up an fx8350/M5A97 MB for cheap ($130) upgrade from my 1100t.. Now medium works :). Anyway, i had been getting some head tracking and loss of HMD connection using my PEXUSB3S44V 4-Port PCI Express adapter with both sensors and hmd plugged in. So i moved the HMD to the on-board USB 3.0...

I had noticed slightly worse performance when I updated a month or so ago and then when Oculus 2.0 came out it forced me to upgrade to the latest and the perfomance was completely unusable (if the games would even load). I ended up downgrading from 2.0 (turn off beta) and rolled back to version...

Anyone else pick this up? Just grabbed it for $55 CAD (roughly $40 usd) and so far it seems to work fine for my rift. Played the game for 10 minutes (all the time I had for now lol) and so far reports the game is "unplayable" on the rift is grossly overstated. I have had no issues moving...

Well more fun with Windows yet again. My Rift worked just fine for days and then I updated my video drivers and now everytime I boot I get the USB device not recognized message for the headset. Of course I googled it and tried every possible solution but nothing worked. I even used DDU on the...

https://www.oculus.com/blog/welcome-to-rift-core-beta-now-available/ Just a heads up for Munich fellow rift users that the new rift core is now out! Some huge improvements in this that I'm very excited to test out. also a flash sale on a ton of games to.

Many of us VR fans have seen the worlds of mixed reality or alternate reality that very expensive products like Microsoft's HoloLens can produce. Stereolabs is telling us that for a mere $450 more, we can turn our Vive or Rift headset into a device that is capable of delivering a real AR...

So I ordered a rift from best buys pre black friday sale, figured 350 was not a bad price to try it out. Anyway I am looking for any tips/tricks on use and or setup you have. I have read the owners thread and saw the tips in there such as dont go right into flight sims etc.

Hmm so i have a chance to buy a lightly used Rift w/ Touch Controller for $225.. im thinking of pulling the trigger. However i was eye balling the Windows Sets granted is it worth buying one of those newer sets for $400-$500 or at the price of $225 rift just good deal to grab?

Fellow Blade Runner fanatics, the wait is over! Blade Runner 2049 Memory Labs This is the official launch trailer from the Oculus channel so it should be relatively spoiler free.

Thrustmaster T.16000M FCS HOTAS I recently bought this HOTAS as my overall pick of the market. It was designed in conjunction with Elite: Dangerous, which didn't really sell me on the stick, but did sell me on Elite this weekend while I was looking for something else to test the HOTAS with...

Just, like, my opinions man. I really enjoyed my Vive but moving to the Rift w/ Touch has been a profound improvement in every way. The touch controllers are dramatically better than the Vive. The thumbsticks are the reason I moved in the first place for the game I primarily play and I hate...

I headed over to Steam to pick up Lone Echo. Hmm not there. (quick google) Ah, it's one of the Oculus exclusives. Has there been news about when Oculus exclusives will move to Steam? Are they shackled to the Oculus Store forever? I refuse to buy games that I'll lose when I leave the Rift...

Current Rift / Vive owners, will you pick up a Windows VR unit too? Yea or nay and why? I'm thinking about grabbing one of the higher resolution Windows VR units. The extra pixels are supposed to be a solid visual upgrade over Rift / Vive. I plan to wait for Steam VR support first though.

Some more announcements trickling our from Oculus today on its Rift HMD for interactive VR experiences. The Rift will now stick with its previous summer promo price of $400. Oculus is also updating the Rift's underlying software and UI bones as well with Core 2.0. Check out the video. Now...

VR is getting more exciting as more and more content comes to market, but what many have been interested in also is better HMD hardware. Yesterday Oculus pushed out its new Dev Kit 2 with many upgrades. You can read about it all here. Looks like HMDs that can do roomscale VR gameplay are...

I was looking at videos on Project cars 2 and was thinking maybe it is worth getting it for my Rift? Any thoughts on the game? Is it worth it?

Digital signal, 1s and 0s, only if defective, etc. Now that that's out of the way, I did my own little blind test where I kept the HMD on and my wife would randomly connect either the default HDMI or the adapter. I am a rational and skeptical person, but there is a major quality increase when...

My guardian system works perfectly in Rift games but when running steam VR games like Rec Room, there is no guardian system. Any idea why its not showing up in steam VR games? I do have oculus home running as well as steam VR. Thanks..

Been out of the loop with VR and haven't kept up with the developments or what's happening. But last weekend I tried my brother-in-law's Vive room scale setup and loved it and the wife told me I could buy a system. I'm seeing the deep discounted Rift package and honestly don't know which way to...
