Hopefully VR movies won't be exclusive to Oculus, like sold through a Facebook store or something. I'd be willing to lay down cash to at least try that experience out

What the hell does this thing 65GB of my hard hrive for? And are those specs right? I thought the CEO said it would cost a ton of money to be able to run this thing.
if you have an android phone, get one of those cheap Cardboard VR headsets and download Kaiju Fury from the store. That alone sold me on VR movies.
It's amazing to watch a movie where you can watch in any direction.
They don't really cost very much. You are looking at under $10 on the BOM of the device. And they probably don't want to push that many SKUs.Hopefully they'll have cheaper versions of the headset without the DAC and earphone things since I already have a better setup.
For like the 5th time, they are not cheap, crappy headphones.Cheap built-in headphones = all my nopes.
They are cheap. Which doesn't mean they are crappy. People tend to forget what the principle cost of headphones is engineering not the materials that go into them and on high-end headphones a lot of snake-oil added on top of low-volume premiums.For like the 5th time, they are not cheap, crappy headphones.
Right, fair enough. Inexpensive is the word I'd rather use, cuz calling them 'cheap headphones' will inevitably lead to negative associations. It's relative, too. They aren't like $10 cheap, either.They are cheap. Which doesn't mean they are crappy.

You will be able, but you probably won't want to. Our audio stack is fully integrated and optimized for VR, from software to DAC to amp to headphone drivers.
Rift CV1 audio is going to be far superior to your A40s. Most of your $200 went to marketing, retailers, and profit margins.
I think he was alluding to Palmer Luckey hinting (might be an overblown toying) about a powerglove solution on his twitter a few days back. No need to rise expectations if they are not delivering on that.
"XXX Field of View"
"Raise expectations"? "hinting"? He made a joke, that's it. His entire tweet:
He's probably hiring the kid to give the presentation on input clearly.Palmer knows how rabid the subreddit is with any morsel of info, and it was obviously a deliberate joke about input. He has said in the past that input is his pet project, and while this was a joke, it wasn't just completely random.
