“He’s also probably right that lots of the people who have Rifts don’t post on the Oculus subreddit…”

Fenrox’s comment was clearly an April Fools joke. Of course you’re not the media, you write for a Gawker blog.

Oculus has never been good with communication. So far, this is playing in a very similar way to the DK2 launch. I’m still hoping my Rift arrives this week, but so far they haven’t processed a single Canadian order. We’ll see how it goes.

What’s with the dates at the end of the video? Is it for another region? The release dates are 2 weeks later than what’s been announced for North America.

Ugh ... Ken is my go-to character. Thankfully this is just an alternate design, so I’d never have to use it.

Looks like the Rift performs significantly better at room scale than anyone expected. If they implement a Chaperone type system, they’ll be pretty much head-to-head with the Vive in terms of functionality.

There's a lot of great VR experience that feature minimal movement. You could likely do those, but I'd definitely suggest trying it first before investing in an HMD. My wife suffers from general motion sickness and she felt sick from a motionless experience.

Thanks.

I think even those who are early adopters don’t always do it right. I see too many people who complain on forums that a new product doesn’t do this or that or the other thing. When things don’t work properly or you have other suggestions about the product, it’s extremely important to reach out to the company directly.…

I’m ‘that guy’ who has a good portion of the new tech that comes out. Thankfully i have a wife who doesn’t care that I have multiple packages of stuff showing up at our house every week :-) It’s not a cheap hobby, but I still don’t spend anywhere near as much as friends I know who are in to cars.

Man of Steel was a highly flawed movie, but at least it had a generally coherent story. Dawn of Justice does not have a coherent story. For example, I couldn’t for the life for me tell you the WHY when it comes to the Superman and Batman fight, because they never bother to tell you. It generally feels like a bunch of…

I’m really looking forward to receiving my Rift and hope it ships this week.

They keep hiring the wrong people to helm their project. David Goyer is a major part of the problem and Snyder definitely doesn’t help.

The way I typically describe MoS is that it’s a mildly entertaining, but is overall a pretty bad movie and an even worse Superman movie.

He didn’t destroy the Matrix. He helped the machines get rid of Agent Smith in exchange for peace. The Matrix still exists and will continue to exist.

I don’t care how long it comes out after the movie, as long as the game is solid. It looks like they’ve done a fantastic job on it.

Good lord ... This just reminded me that I still haven’t gone back to Driveclub since the troublesome launch. Guess I should probably start playing it.

For what the watch does, BT is more than adequate.

I have no desire to put my iPad in a case though.

I too enjoy my Apple Watch. I just wish it were faster though. There’s no reason it should take 20 - 40 seconds to show me when the next bus is arriving, when my phone returns the same information in just a couple seconds. This isn’t a problem with app developers and instead a core issue with data transfer between the…
