[/img]The consumer model of the Rift headset from Oculus VR will come packaged with an wireless Xbox One controller, an adapter usable with Windows 10, and the ability to stream Xbox One games to the headset.
“Rift will work with Windows 10 allowing users to stream their Xbox One games such as Halo, Forza, and Sunset Overdrive to the Oculus Rift using the controller that they know and love,” said Xbox boss said Phil Spencer during the briefing (thanks, Destructoid).
The tech comes with a controller, two OLED screens with a wide field of view, a tracking system with “very low latency movement” as well as an external sensor which can be set upon your desk, coffee table or whatever you wish to set it on.
Headphones are integrated into the headset, but removable, and features 360-degree spatialized audio.
The Rift also features a dial to adjust the interpupillary distance between your eyes and to make things for comfortable for different face shapes and sizes. It is covered in cloth for extra comfort; is light enough to hold with one hand, and if you wear glasses wear glasses, you can remove the interior face-plate.

Are you serious? A century is 100 years, and there’s still 85 years left in this century. There’s ton’s of virtual reality tech stuff in the works, not to mention the stuff that’s already developed or waiting for patents and what not. The one thing I do know is I’ll be in a grave well after virtual reality stuff like the Rift VR takes off. The year 2100 is a long way away my friend.
I think I just came. Am I really starting to love Microsoft? What the fùck? I used to hate them. Windows 8 came out, and it pissed me off and made me hate them more than I did already for Xbox being shìtty. Then Windows 10 is coming out and I’m running a developer version and I fùcking love it. And now, I hear that I will be able to use a VR headset on an Xbox One which happens to have the game, Forza Horizon 2, which I love so dearly? Microsoft is changing for the better, finally.
