but i can barely take wearing my TB's or Tritons for more than about an hour. So this thing better be like wearing sunglasses comfortable to even have a shot at not flopping.



Heh, who knows. If Sony does get a partnership with Oculus it'll be interesting to see where it goes, even if they don't.

I wasn't even aware of Oculus or any of this until yesterday when Bruce linked me to their PC VR headset. Apparently they have a decent following for a PC version they are developing.

Oh yeah, there is, but with most PC stuff like that (flight sims, racing sims) it's going to be a very niche product for a while. At least until the prices come down anyway. Right now you can pre-order the oculus dev kit for $300. That's not too bad from an enthusiast standpoint but for a normal person it is pretty expensive. I believe that you can buy the Omni (the treadmill platform from the video) for $500 already but it's useless until oculus is released. $800 for some pretty cool tech. I won't buy it but I've spent more on less.
