Oculus sounds like they are going all out at CES: These photos prove how popular the Oculus Rift has become.  That's not a booth, it's a bloody showroom.

They have a line to get in line... The booth actually isn't all that big compared to many others. There are some really big setups here.

Give it a year or two and the video card manufacturers will have it all standardized and there will be a dozen options out there ranging from super cheap to top end expensive, then buy from the lower middle area and you will get the best bang for your buck, like just about all technology.  Every major display manufacturer is working on their own version right now, and half the smartphone companies and even the video card guys are getting in on it.  Let them fight it out for a year or two then pounce.. Yes, the Rift is probably ahead of everyone right now, but you know as well as I do that the others will just take what they did and either improve on it or make it cheaper.

Ditto'd.  I'm really curious to see how everything shakes out and where Oculus ends up in the market space, especially once the HTC Vive comes out.  It's exciting!

well now I'm just looking forward to the VR porn...

I was at CES on Friday, and every major carrier had a VR headset of some type.

Most of what they were offering was similar to my Note2 and the Google VR. Samsung's offering was much better, but the queue was a mile long.  No Oculus at the Intel stand and Nvidia was car mapping oriented.

The show was really ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- this year, and I so miss COMDEX.  This year's theme was the car and drone, not the VR.  Maybe next year...
