This tech is just too expensive, especially for those of us outside North America The technology will need time to mature and prove itself more than a gimmick, plus get a considerable price drop before this will be taken up on a large scale.
+UNDERHILL agreed, but until they fix this, you could create a symlink (available since windows 7) that points from the default c: install directory to another drive, that way, it won't take up any space on your system drive
+bandiii Imo not worth the trouble with SSD prices as they are. Just blowup your system ssd to 500gb or even 1tb. And don't get me wrong, it still absolutely inexcusable for facebook to force a c installation for the games. The drivers and stuff? Sure that is system stuff, but the games absolutely need to go to the drive I choose.
+Sir Bobington the 4th Get that cancerous leafy bull out of here. As for Del, likely playing list in the rift right now (I think that's the title of it)
+Lycan Thorpe You must have small hands. I've just heard people with smaller hands or who are just younger like the PS4 controller more. If that isn't the case. then i'm sorry haha.
+69johndz lol at first I thought he said whore games as well. I was like "Wait..wtf did he just say? whore games!?". Then I listened to it again and figured out he was saying Horror games.
Lol yeah me either.... I imagine you're right though that his OLD PC had USB 2.0 only so he got a big Alienware rig, but I think he got that rig a while ago..... Let's just walk away from this xD
The back of the box reminds me of video game console boxes back in the late 90s early 00s, particularly the n64 and ps2 boxes, they'd always show a compilation of launch game characters and such.
What annoys me are the people that are eager to shit on vr and almost seem to want it to fail. The least they can do is hold off a purchase and wait for the actual products to be released.
Spent $600 preordering this. Spent another $300 to upgrade my GPU to a GTX 970. Can't wait to receive mine in a week or two and see where VR takes us in the future.
+Krucek That's what I did. I can't wait until April 5th, although I probably can't have it delivered until the 7th due to work. Those two days are gonna be seriously hard to wait.
+TheHyperSheep - Paid mods - Arkham Knight PC port - DOA Extreme 5 censorship. - Konami's bullshits (could fill up almost half of the list) and more that I forgot for now.
Iv'e got a recommendation. I think other Joe needs a another microphone maybe attached to his shirt or something. Angry Joe has a larger, clearer voice that kind of drowns out Other Joe. When they both speak, it's difficult to hear what Other Joe is saying. Again, nothing against Other Joe AT ALL. I love them both. It's just difficult to hear him sometimes because of his softer voice.
Yep, I guess it's just really old, and yeah for my mom I would understand, but this is like a triple-A gaming channel with enough budget to do seriously cool videos about seriously cool games. I don't know how much sponsoring and other financial constructions go around there of course, but a reasonably up-to-date production rig (and it's not like USB 3 is still cutting-edge or anything) would be, like, prio 1, I would say. Probably one or two spares with around the same basic specs as well. Look, not judging or anything, it's not like not having USB 3 is a bad thing or is stupid or whatever, it just surprises me highly that a channel like Joe's wouldn't have one in a production setup.
+killin Straya dont think so, the high end computer would be needed IF you play games, i dont think it would affect anything by just watching VR-special videos.
+killin Straya Yes you will. Ignore Ricky Felix. VR needs a high frame rate in order to prevent motion sickness (120 FPS is the ideal). Only high end video cards can run the headsets 2 1080p screens at a high framerate.
+Jet Fusion a bit a scat porn, the fun of being shit in without the mess, imagine it dangling above you just about to fall. A fully immersive experience
+ThaTyger its fucking Alienware, they're pretty much the Apple of PC's, overpriced pieces of shit with lights everywhere to make the consumer think its cool.
Lmao really? Requiring USB 3.0 is a complaint? Sorry guys, but chances if your PC doesn't have USB 3.0 already, you can't handle VR in the first place.
+DeusGladiorum seriously, that shit has been around since 2010, i had to check and make sure i wasn't crazy, i thought he meant USB3.1 or whatever the new one is. Who the fuck doesn't have at least 1 3.0 port, if not like 3+ in this day and age?!
+platinumwatcher I know that but just because he got one doesn't mean they're good. They're severely overpriced for what you get. They're poorly built also.
+Ryan Origin Yeah I agree, Magic the gathering would be cool, yet pretty gimmicky. But I'm talking about games like The Witcher 3... Using oculus for that would be retarded. For the record as well, Racing/Flight/Horror genres are RIPE for VR.
Lol ikr fkn nerd I have a 9380Ti Nvidia graphics card (9.000.000$) and I have a NASA space ship as case and my processor is ancient alien technology. I also have a USB Infinity upgrade and im just a hobo so I dont get how joe hasnt got a 3.0 yet either.
I'm an audio guy and I agree, the included headphones are crap, but you should know the headphones are removable. You can pull the right out of their little slots and plug your our pair in instead.
Angry Joe deleted my comment were i laughed about him not having USB 3.0 - what is this censorship brah? thought you were better than that. +AngryJoeShow
+Marcus Antonius Was thinking the same thing. Middle range gaming MoBo's generally have 1-2 plus the connectors for a few on the case. Mine certainly does (4 in total) and my system is the same age as Joe's (and worth a fair bit less).
That tabletop thingie gives me an idea: You know that Star Wars game that is played with the holograms on Episode 4, Dejarik? I think this would be a GREAT time to attempt it. Bringing in a Star Wars game along with VR people would buy that like crack I think lol.
+Aleksandar Markovic Cuz the loud Joe wants to be the one you are hearing and remembering. Even thought he is so fucking annoying. Loud Joe will never make it cuz he simply tries too hard. That is why he sounds annoying and waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too loud.
I don't understand why people keep saying it's expensive. Look at how expensive your phones are. The tech that goes into a vr headset is a lot more expensive than the tech that goes into phones. Companies sell phones at profit. Oculus is selling this I believe 'at cost or less than cost. It uses best of the best screens that aren't being made anywhere else and the sensor also uses special tech to give the lowest latency it can.
+MrSuvvri they really don't. They have said it themselves. It's the reason they did such a good job with the game line up. They're depending on the software to make profit
+MaTSix Not true. The development kits were sold at cost, hence their $200-$300 price tags. There wasn't really any upgrade that justifies the price more than doubling.
+DNice Gaming the dev kits were sold at a loss. Do your research. And not enough of an upgrade to justify double cost? really? let's check over - fantastic build quality, custom screens, custom lenses, amazing sensor with extremely wide field of view... I can go on. the dev kits use mass produced cell phone screens and normal lenses. they're heavier, the sensor for the dk2 loses tracking easily... do your research before you start talking about something you don't know
The current consumer product is comparable to the Razer OSVR 1.4 which sells for $300USD. And many testers have claimed that the OSVR 1.4 actually has better picture quality.
The thing about Oculus Rift is that you are not able to play Steam Vive exclusive games on it, but you can play Oculus Rift exclusive games on Steam Vive by using ReVive software.
+Victor Blixt It's as unfair as having praise for something, when you don't know any better, right? Angry Joe knows about hardware as much as an average Joe. Should his hardware reviews matter any more than that?
Benjamin Dover No one would hold it against you to deal with his *opinion* on the product as you wish. But as a consumer of a hardware/car/cookie etc (especially as expensive as this is) I'd say it's a-ok to pass on to others what you liked/disliked/problems/irritations etc you encountered using it.
Alienware gave them their pc, though i advise other people to either build their own or let someone trust worthy help them build and buy the parts needed to build one. Alienwares are nothing but problems, i know because i've had a few. they're overpriced and super faulty; just a warning for those that might purchase an Alienware.
+alfa0i0omega Not really. It looks like it helps immersion......and that's it. Seriously, you end up playing the games with a controller anyway. I'm not that excited.
This tech is just too expensive, especially for those of us outside North America
The technology will need time to mature and prove itself more than a gimmick, plus get a considerable price drop before this will be taken up on a large scale.
True
+Lennie Godber we will have to wait 5 years or more for that
100% agree with you. Not to mention you really need to use it first to decide if you want to buy it.
+Lennie Godber Because it is new technology, yeah. Once it gets more popular and more companies start making their VR, the price will steadily drop.
And those inside North America. In Canada it's 900$ :(

How did angry joe get get that monster PC and not get USB 3.0 lmao...
XD
+sirjezzumz Shocking right?!
+sirjezzumz alienware what do you expect ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
Because of Alien Ware... so this prove that having overpriced pc brands rather than building the pc yourself is a really bad choice
+sirjezzumz seriously... dual 980s, what mobo is he running that doesn't have 3.0? I think he has a i7..
It says AnGay Review on the Thumbnail!
No
Wow, it does. Thanks for the laugh. screenshot

+PlasmaBurns reverse illuminati??
+BeanBagJoe lol what? gtfo man.
The c: only thing is totally unacceptable. How did they get all this other high-tech together and fuck up on the installer?
+UNDERHILL agreed, but until they fix this, you could create a symlink (available since windows 7) that points from the default c: install directory to another drive, that way, it won't take up any space on your system drive
+bandiii Imo not worth the trouble with SSD prices as they are. Just blowup your system ssd to 500gb or even 1tb.
And don't get me wrong, it still absolutely inexcusable for facebook to force a c installation for the games. The drivers and stuff? Sure that is system stuff, but the games absolutely need to go to the drive I choose.
+UNDERHILL heaven sakes .... people, look into creating junctions and hardlinks. look it up
+Traumglanz Cheap ass.

I hope not

Finally a review on this product I can look up to, thanks joe!
I must say the black shirts and black table are a good fit for unboxing a black package with black contents. Good job Joe. Well done.
Just wait till VR porn.... I heard that some porno companies are already investing in that
Of course they will be
Lol

You both should have a microphone if you are going to review something
I'm a simple man, I see a new review from Angry Joe, I press like.
Its Angay Review bro
I just can't wait for something like Elder Scrolls on VR!!!
Not happening sadly. I wouldnt expect a highly detailed open world vr game to be a thing for a while.
***** you can play it using Vorpx. Im playing Fallout 4 on my dk2. it works amazing
jaredmai boy were you wrong.
Flight simulators, Mech simulators, and whore games. I'm all in!
+69johndz lol at first I thought he said whore games as well. I was like "Wait..wtf did he just say? whore games!?". Then I listened to it again and figured out he was saying Horror games.
there need to be a horror simulator and is played on in three ways. you can play a a consumer, a horror and a pimp
+69johndz I'm buying it especially for the "whore" games. Flight sims would be cool too though.
"its pretty expensive" As they sit in two 400 dollar gaming chairs lol
he got those free
I'd like a free chair plz
Can't wait to play superman 64 remastered on this.
+Brandon Young Hell Yeah
Best game of all time superman 64 or ride to hell retribution
+raser abdel or big rigs over the road racing
+Jude Gaming true true maybe even Godzilla
Is Joe saying his Alienware doesn't have a fucking USB 3.0?! My budget build from 2012 had at least 2 USB 3.0 ports....
+Kamikaze PD Ikr? This is literally impossible. Either he doesn't know what's in his own computer, or someone royally fucked up.
+Kamikaze PD no that was his computers before he got his Alienware comp. I got my x51 in 2012 and it has 4 usb 3.0.
V340E419 He said it twice that his computer has no 3.0's though...
+Kamikaze PD Idk what to say then ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Lol yeah me either.... I imagine you're right though that his OLD PC had USB 2.0 only so he got a big Alienware rig, but I think he got that rig a while ago.....
Let's just walk away from this xD

If you're not actually angry... is it truly an Angry Review?
More like Happy Review
+Buda Yen More like Review
So happy Joe has no view then.
dont want to be mean but.....are joe and joe a gay couple ?
No...
idk. just one of those things stuck on my mind :V
+Avian Edits that's so mean you really offended me
+Avian Edits | Don't start this. Just stop.
I thought so too at the first time I saw them but no haha
Second JOE is there just for props. Like those Superman and Batman figures in the back. "Proop statue job". Second Joe the prop man.
The back of the box reminds me of video game console boxes back in the late 90s early 00s, particularly the n64 and ps2 boxes, they'd always show a compilation of launch game characters and such.
+John Thomas even xbox/gamecube! I remember too, it made me so nostalgic lol
Other Joe needs his own or a better mic.
What annoys me are the people that are eager to shit on vr and almost seem to want it to fail. The least they can do is hold off a purchase and wait for the actual products to be released.
Joe, when the Rift support games like ArmA3, and Squad...oh holy Jesus the PTSD is real.
+J.W. Abshire that shit is gonna be insane, can't wait
Fuckin' A right man...talk about total milsim immersion....
LOL who was Joking?
LOL 'Stolen Valor'...cite me when I said I was in the military or claimed to be kitten?

Hardware Reviews is an absolutely awesome idea! Looking forward to more in this series
WHAT? ANOTHER ANGRY REVIEW IN THE SAME MONTH😱😱😱
Not for a game though.
+Madway sadly😔😔
You can't rebox a box then do an unboxing video!
There has to be some rule against right? I mean that is just insanity.
+Gary Sanders haha
Alien Isolation needs to be compatible with VR headsets.
It's been compatible since release. . .
+wolverine it is, ive seen the option even without having a vr headset.
Spent $600 preordering this. Spent another $300 to upgrade my GPU to a GTX 970. Can't wait to receive mine in a week or two and see where VR takes us in the future.
people, dont waste your money on this shit, buy HTC vive
+Krucek I just wont buy both.
+Krucek calm down both headsets interpret the VR technologie absolutely diffrent and calling one of them shit is just stupid
If I have a spare 800$ sure.
yeah, I'll pick up a vive as soon as I can afford to set aside 25 feet of space to use it. read: no time soon.
+Krucek That's what I did. I can't wait until April 5th, although I probably can't have it delivered until the 7th due to work. Those two days are gonna be seriously hard to wait.
Give me this and a flight sim joystick and I'll play Eve all day long on days off.
still waiting for top 10 Controversies

+Pedro Canas 2015 needs to happen still bruh
There were hardly any controversies.

no comparison
The one thing that i hate hearing.................Exclusive.
Lol, I guess instead of consoles we'll just have like 5 vr headsets lying around.
Angry Joe videos are so incredible when Delrith is not in it.
is that crossing the rubicon by the human abstract as your theme music?
yes
How can Jontron use VR when his eyes are on the side of his head and he only has talons?
Ayy lmao

what was that first song as soon as the first preview of joe playing that starship looking game? that song was amazing
Joe getting ready to collect the $$$
I just don't get how Joe's computer wasn't USB 3 compliant. I really don't.
+SadBunny It must be from 2014
I think he meant he doesn't have an extra USB 3.0 port
+Gavin DeCruz Nah, I'm pretty sure he said he doesnt have one and had to use a 2.0. I have 6 3.0 ports on my mobo and its just an old 1150.
Yep, I guess it's just really old, and yeah for my mom I would understand, but this is like a triple-A gaming channel with enough budget to do seriously cool videos about seriously cool games. I don't know how much sponsoring and other financial constructions go around there of course, but a reasonably up-to-date production rig (and it's not like USB 3 is still cutting-edge or anything) would be, like, prio 1, I would say.

Look, not judging or anything, it's not like not having USB 3 is a bad thing or is stupid or whatever, it just surprises me highly that a channel like Joe's wouldn't have one in a production setup.
And USB 3.0 is what, 6 or 7 years old by now?
I was hoping this would happen.

+killin Straya dont think so, the high end computer would be needed IF you play games, i dont think it would affect anything by just watching VR-special videos.
+killin Straya Yes you will. Ignore Ricky Felix. VR needs a high frame rate in order to prevent motion sickness (120 FPS is the ideal). Only high end video cards can run the headsets 2 1080p screens at a high framerate.

Wait... didn't you buy pretty much the most expensive Alienware pc? That doesn't have USB3.0? O_o
+ThaTyger its fucking Alienware, they're pretty much the Apple of PC's, overpriced pieces of shit with lights everywhere to make the consumer think its cool.
Maybe if u think it's Alienware then u know why. (Alienware)
His description shows he realized he DID have USB 3.0 in the back of his PC.
I've bought one back in 2012, and mine had a 3.0?
Shen Sorein
ah. Should have made a little annotation to point that out :x
Lmao really? Requiring USB 3.0 is a complaint? Sorry guys, but chances if your PC doesn't have USB 3.0 already, you can't handle VR in the first place.
+DeusGladiorum seriously, that shit has been around since 2010, i had to check and make sure i wasn't crazy, i thought he meant USB3.1 or whatever the new one is. Who the fuck doesn't have at least 1 3.0 port, if not like 3+ in this day and age?!
Right around the 15:32 mark in the video just became an instant classic. Well played sir.
If you don't have a usb 3.0 on your computer you are doing something wrong.
+JoshTruff Right, Joe has a $3000 Alienware with no 3.0 usb's! that's they Alienware blows.
DO NOT buy Alienware. I love Joe but he's sponsoring the worst PC manufacturer sadly.
+platinumwatcher I know that but just because he got one doesn't mean they're good. They're severely overpriced for what you get. They're poorly built also.
I've seen enough anime to know where vr is heading. LINK START!
ayeeee
No dude just no
+Pepa Crow okay 😂
+saarah0006 That's a disturbing thought and I get what that line is from..... it makes me not want to get it actually! O__O
+AAIIGI92 I agree
This is our answer to "Dont sit too close to the TV it'll make your eyes go square"
How the hell do you not have a USB 3.0 port? Are your case and motherboard from 10 years ago?
Virtual Reality literally makes no sense for 3rd person games...
+Machew San
You would think so until you actually play it.
+Machew San Ignorant statement.
+Machew San It makes sense if you imagine about table chess games, like everything is floating in front of you.
+Dan the Man | Funny Videos! I think he makes a good point.
+Ryan Origin Yeah I agree, Magic the gathering would be cool, yet pretty gimmicky. But I'm talking about games like The Witcher 3... Using oculus for that would be retarded. For the record as well, Racing/Flight/Horror genres are RIPE for VR.
How will this work for people who wear glasses? do we not need to wear them since the screens are close to your face?
Might have to drop some cash to get contacts.
I wear glasses but everything is perfectly clear in the rift, normally when I take my glasses off I can see very clearly within about 15 feet anyway.
+Hariskillsstuff I think it was the HTC Vive I've seen that has grooves along the side to accommodate glasses.
+Hariskillsstuff Oculus is optimized for glasses, I tested it out and I wear glasses.
ok thanks guys, i dont wear huge frames, but if im going to spend $600 for a rift, i can buy some lenses
Wish you guys would keep reviewing vr games and stuff. Like the oculus quest.
Hang on..... your NEW PC does not have a USB 3.0 port????
+Bryce Bannon thats Alienwelfare for you.
lol, my Asus mobo is the same age as Joe's, cost less and has 4 3.0 ports (2 on the board and 2 AUX). Also has a USB C.
I know! My PC from 2010 AMD Phenom II has two of them...
Lol ikr fkn nerd I have a 9380Ti Nvidia graphics card (9.000.000$) and I have a NASA space ship as case and my processor is ancient alien technology. I also have a USB Infinity upgrade and im just a hobo so I dont get how joe hasnt got a 3.0 yet either.
+Bryce Bannon I know right?!? My 5 year old MOBO had at least one usb 3.0. >.>
Why didn't this show up in my subscriber videos?
May seem like an odd question but can it be used as a standalone monitor for regular gaming? Would be like having a 70" screen!
No, games need to be programmed to use the technology, but I agree, it would be awesome
***** damn... sony vr said they'd let you do it... sup oculus?
+kibblewibble1 check out the program "Virtual Desktop". This is what you're looking for.
I'm an audio guy and I agree, the included headphones are crap, but you should know the headphones are removable. You can pull the right out of their little slots and plug your our pair in instead.
I would love a Yugi-oh game. Digimon would be great too.
I cannot wait for this to come out :O, but at that price, i will not be able to buy it right away
it's already out, no?
+Spider-manana yes
Angry Joe deleted my comment were i laughed about him not having USB 3.0 - what is this censorship brah? thought you were better than that. +AngryJoeShow
yea brah
angry joe keeps other joe locked in his basement
How come your PC is good enough to run this (thus I presume not that old) yet doesn't have USB 3? That's weird.
+Marcus Antonius Was thinking the same thing. Middle range gaming MoBo's generally have 1-2 plus the connectors for a few on the case. Mine certainly does (4 in total) and my system is the same age as Joe's (and worth a fair bit less).
+Marcus Antonius Because alienware sucks and typically use old motherboards with usb 2.0 ports.
Let's be real some day in the future I'm gonna cave and buy it for the porn.
Is it just me or is Joe starting to get more flamboyant? Maybe it's time for him to finally raise that rainbow flag.
Is it confirmed or is it just a theory? No hate, just want to know.
That tabletop thingie gives me an idea:
You know that Star Wars game that is played with the holograms on Episode 4, Dejarik? I think this would be a GREAT time to attempt it. Bringing in a Star Wars game along with VR people would buy that like crack I think lol.
Why is other Joe always lower in audio?
+Jesuchrist Von Piro why be so harsh?
=o)
+Simon Bolthausen lllooolll
+Aleksandar Markovic Cuz the loud Joe wants to be the one you are hearing and remembering. Even thought he is so fucking annoying. Loud Joe will never make it cuz he simply tries too hard. That is why he sounds annoying and waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyyy too loud.
Now that's harsh =O)
Hey joe.. Buy a mic for your teammate...
I don't understand why people keep saying it's expensive. Look at how expensive your phones are. The tech that goes into a vr headset is a lot more expensive than the tech that goes into phones. Companies sell phones at profit. Oculus is selling this I believe 'at cost or less than cost. It uses best of the best screens that aren't being made anywhere else and the sensor also uses special tech to give the lowest latency it can.
+MaTSix do you really think that they have no profit out of it? lol
+MrSuvvri they really don't. They have said it themselves. It's the reason they did such a good job with the game line up. They're depending on the software to make profit
+MaTSix Not true. The development kits were sold at cost, hence their $200-$300 price tags. There wasn't really any upgrade that justifies the price more than doubling.
+DNice Gaming the dev kits were sold at a loss. Do your research. And not enough of an upgrade to justify double cost? really? let's check over - fantastic build quality, custom screens, custom lenses, amazing sensor with extremely wide field of view... I can go on.
the dev kits use mass produced cell phone screens and normal lenses. they're heavier, the sensor for the dk2 loses tracking easily... do your research before you start talking about something you don't know
The current consumer product is comparable to the Razer OSVR 1.4 which sells for $300USD. And many testers have claimed that the OSVR 1.4 actually has better picture quality.
Its $400 now with touch controllers and an extra camera free shipping as well on amazon right now
Yep bought one. Totally worth it.
Artwertable its an amazing deal
VR! It's like getting stabbed in the chest by Doomsday. 😉
Hehehe
I understood that reference
I will get you to top comment
Too soon.
no the rift will never take me i refuse nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
yeah this thing sounds awesome but the price both on this and the gaming pc oh god my wallet is going to die
Liked simply for the VR Troopers reference. Had not even made it to the 5 minute mark.
any new motherboard has USB 3.0, this isn't a negative. :P
+Nai Tutreaba Yea, even my potato pc has 2 usb 3.0's.
Why have the other guy there if he barely talks and every time he does you speak over him?
+Mcufre You gotta dominate somehow I suppose.
+Mcufre I notice that every time too. It's seems Other Joe is accustomed to it. It frustrates the hell out of me.
glad that u pointed that out, i feel like that too
I wonder if the DS4 emulator would work with Oculus rift.
perhaps
+Cas van Dam perhaps you're gay...perhaps
+Darth Woody vr for dark souls.......0.0 uh ill pass to scary
+Darth Woody you can simulate a 360 controller using DS4Windows and it works perfectly
+Darth Woody It does. I use my roommates PS4 controller with the DK2 and Vorpx
The thing about Oculus Rift is that you are not able to play Steam Vive exclusive games on it, but you can play Oculus Rift exclusive games on Steam Vive by using ReVive software.
you actually can
Fruitpunch
No you actually cant. Oculus doesn't have motion sensor controller. It can't play Vive games that requires motion sensor controllers.
+MyLostTemple some games like the lab can be played with out them don't know how it works though
I bet it would have been a 9/10 if they factored in VR porn
+Thomas Douglas Porn hub is already working on it!
porn hub is already on the job.
$600 lol he'll nahhh I'm fine with a ps4 or xbox
im a huge horror genre fan but i think ill wait for the price to go down a touch just cuz 600$ it kinda pricey just for that genre :|
+chozo echo (W.W.P.P) Alien Isolation in VR :O
cant wait to see the vr games you guys will be reviewing
Hardware reviews? Hmmm..... Don't you have to know hardware before you can objectively review it?
+Benjamin Dover It's unfair that the consumers have complaints?
+Victor Blixt It's as unfair as having praise for something, when you don't know any better, right? Angry Joe knows about hardware as much as an average Joe. Should his hardware reviews matter any more than that?
Benjamin Dover No one would hold it against you to deal with his *opinion* on the product as you wish.
But as a consumer of a hardware/car/cookie etc (especially as expensive as this is) I'd say it's a-ok to pass on to others what you liked/disliked/problems/irritations etc you encountered using it.
Alienware gave them their pc, though i advise other people to either build their own or let someone trust worthy help them build and buy the parts needed to build one. Alienwares are nothing but problems, i know because i've had a few. they're overpriced and super faulty; just a warning for those that might purchase an Alienware.
+Krystal S. S. They're literally overclocked, overpriced, overhyped Dells.
+Krystal S. S. Yup bought a 6k alien ware with dual titanx s not worth, could have made a better one and saved 1k
Am I the only one who has no interest in VR whatsoever?
+Howbout No (Delicious) The Amazonian tribes and the Amish communities are with ya :D
+Howbout No (Delicious) howbout yes
+Howbout No (Delicious) Seems so.
+alfa0i0omega Not really. It looks like it helps immersion......and that's it.
Seriously, you end up playing the games with a controller anyway. I'm not that excited.
Brainwash yourself because you are poor 😄. (I'm poor to 😭)
The fairest review of the oculus i've seen so far. Great work, Joe and Joe!
