A guy's reaction to a friend pushing him as he's using the rift. The combined falling feeling and the visual foolery made him think he was actually in the roller coaster.
Holy shit that guy has the Goofy laugh.

Both are head-mounted displays. One is just way more advanced.

Virtuix or w.e. isn't just an HMD. Supposed to be a step towards even much more immersion than that.

Wow, Gayble. I was comparing whatever I had in the past to the Oculus Rift.

Was saying they created a head mounted display in the past that played 2D games.

Unless ARAIG got re done the kick starter failed. It was a dumb idea who wants to feel like they are getting shot. "LOOK MOM IM BLEEDING"

It's not really simulating getting shot, you don't feel pain and it doesn't have the same knockback. It's more so that when you are immersed by sound and sight, you now have the sensation of touch as well to give a more complete immersion all around to further fool your body into believing it is somewhere it's not.

Not only that, you can easily just not get the ARAIG and get everything else. But from what I've heard, altogether they make you fully feel like you're in game.

@Mario: Being HMD is the only thing they have in common. The tech you're referring to isn't even in the same league. Like...you literally are looking through another world. Not a screen with 2D graphics in front of you.

I don't think the ARAIG will be to big, unless they develop it more to do more then just vibrating parts of your body (Giggity). If there was something more like being in a burning place in a game, the suit heats up, if its cold it cools etc etc.

The $500 price tag is what would turn me away from it though I think. Yah its neat and nice, but not worth that much IMO. Doesn't do enough for that price tag.

Vibrations seem more annoying then anything, at least to me. It pulls me out of a game more then in.

Saying they are similar has nothing to do with being in the same league.
Both equipments use a screen that produces images, both are head-mounted displays.. I'm not saying they are the same, just similar. They don't have to be in the same league to be similar.

Fable, you didn't even come close to saying that.. You said Virtuix (company that created the Omni treadmill) is more than a HMD when it's.. a company. And even if you were referring to the Oculus Rift, what other body part can I use it with? Negro, it's nothing more than a head-mounted display.

Are you trying to insult Zed by saying he's poor because of the frugal choices he makes? Isn't that a bit rude and obnoxious?
