Arrow Oculus Rift VR is the future. (nerdgasm) (vids)

Virtual reality is the future of gaming as well as many other things.

Just imagine the stuff that will be possible with this, besides gaming... Doctors will be able to do robotic surgery via this, med students will be able to practice surgery, people will be able to visit different places in the world and seem like they are actually there - imagine the joy that could bring to an old person who isn't physically able to visit their home country anymore, insane porn, etc...

God damn I cannot fucking wait. I am more hyped for this piece of tech than anything ever before...

Can you imagine a simulator where you can look around in space or up at the constellations, omg...






Imagine playing a tower defense game like this, or a game where you play god...


Can you imagine dogfights with this...

Yup.

While stationed in Germany someone asked me why I would bother paying so much money to go to Nurburgring and rent a car to drive around the track when I could just do it on playstation.

VR is cool, but hopefully people will still get out and experience things in real life.
