Hot damn.
I like how the system can let the user transition from sitting for using vehicles to getting up so you can actually walk or move around.
Best cardio workout ever.
There's a similar system to this, I don't remember what it's called, but you needed some kind of special shoes to wear it. This blows that shit out of the water.
Holy shit. This looks so cool. Integrate it with these two maybe for FPS games. :v: [url]http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/356540105/delta-six-a-new-kind-of-game-controller[/url] [url]http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/141790329/araig-as-real-as-it-gets[/url] Then we will have holodeck level amazing VR

Swap out in-game stamina with real life stamina, perfect!
Imagine this with GTA V.
The grin on his face after he punches the guy, hahah! I'd get slim in no time if I had one of these for ArmA or Project Reality
i'd be worried about slipping and crushing that fancy rig.
Would love one to exercise in.

Then again, we [I]could[/I] also just, like, do that IRL. Pff yeah right fuck that Marathon running in video games is better.
This could be pretty sweet with horror games where running from enemies and looking around are main parts of the game.

This is cool as hell. Shame wearing an Oculus Rift makes you look stupid as fuck though. They should make it better looking.

[QUOTE=MrJazzy;43008933]Doesn't look that bad and who really cares about how they look when gaming[/QUOTE] That's a fair point. But personally I really don't like the look of it at all, I don't want to use something that looks like a brick taped to my forehead.

Besides, you can't see yourself while wearing the rift, all it has to be is comfortable.
It's not like you are going to be walking around wearing one, everyone who sees you wearing it is probably gonna know what it is, and wont care what it look like.
No I don't think you understand. I don't give a shit about what other people would think if I was wearing one. What I'm saying is that despite it being a cool piece of tech, I think it looks terrible, which makes me not particularly want to use one.
The omni seems to be curved up around the sides allowing for a more natural run. This system looks to be a more flat and more resistant material than the omni.

Please God we gotta make these things mainstream.
really hope this means they will compete with the omni thing. competition is always good

Heads up: You look silly wearing a gaming headset too...
This looks so much better than the omni...
