Big news from HTC this morning. The company has officially taken the veil off their upcoming VR headset and entered the pre-order phase. It's a wholesale improvement over the original HTC Vive, offering improved resolution with less screen door effect, inside-out tracking, and a modular design. Pre-orders will also receive a one-year subscription to HTC's Viveport free-game service, providing a huge amount of content right out of the gate.

100% my bad. I failed to hit save after adding that this morning. It's releasing on October 3rd for $699.

If a quality VR setup was $199, it would boom. Rift-S is getting closer with their $399 price tag.

'This does not apply just to ED but SC or any other game. What they will get is Rebirth/X4, likely prettier but equally underwhelming and pointless.
It is incredibly difficult to design some meaningfull leg content that would fit a space ship game - simply because it is not a leg game.
It is just huge resource waste....'

As they are, stand alone headsets are still too weak to take off. Thier game. Libraries are minuscule by comparison, and it's already been confirmed many hot vr titles on the way won't be ported to the weaker hardware. DOA in my opinion.
