    Headset for Sit down gaming and sims

    Best headset for sit down sims racing/flying/space? Would like 6dof to be able to look around things in an aircraft cockpit. Which does it better, the Oculus or HTC or other? Which has better sensors for this? Don't plan to move out of my seat.

    Morning all. So now that the Rift is 399 I'm thinking about going to Best Buy and grabbing one. I know the new Santa Cruz will be available MAYBE in 2018 and I can always sell and upgrade then if need be. What else do I need to get? The sensors yes and how many? I'm guessing I'm sitting in a...

    Digital signal, 1s and 0s, only if defective, etc. Now that that's out of the way, I did my own little blind test where I kept the HMD on and my wife would randomly connect either the default HDMI or the adapter. I am a rational and skeptical person, but there is a major quality increase when...
