Support NeoGAF

[1-D_FTW]

Valve support all kinds of crazy shit, like that force feedback 3D input device thing Novint made and Razor's motion controller.

It's where their structure really helps. With a company full of nerds, all those niche products just have to capture the imagination of a couple people at Valve and they get to work on making support happen.

Oh man, I want to see this get funded. $300 is practically nothing for what they're giving here.

Trying to gauge people's interest in this device... Would people be willing to buy it ? How excited would they be to play a racing game with this.

So tempted to back it for the early SDK...

Welp. I'm in. Ready to be a game development guinea pig... hell, if I can learn to program in the next year or so, I'll be rearing to do something with it myself.

Updated OP with KS details and official specs.

This is so exciting! Full Field of View VR! Finally!

This will make the next generation of consoles feel quite underwhelming if they don't integrate support for this.

Me thinks that it is almost a certainty that the next Xbox and Playstation will support this device, as they've already got Unreal Engine support underway!

And with Valve support, the sky is the limit! Can't wait for Portal VR!

The future is bright!

Anyone know if, seeing as John Carmack has been pushing this, if we'll see Skyrim VR before it is released?
