Q: Does it come with controllers
A: No, it does not come with controllers.
A: HMD stands for "Headset Mounted Display". I did a quick search for the above location, and found a few of the location on the web. For content you find on the web, you will need to use Firefox as your browser if you wont to view content on an Vive or Vive Pro HMD. I did not find anything on the VIVEPORT site or the Steam site that can provide content. However I use Google Earth VR which is available from the VIVEPORT site and it is free. It has a lot of tours and you can go anywhere on earth and view the area in full 360 VR. I have used it to travel the world. If you are creating your own content in 360 VR, then you will need to use GoPro's "GoPro VR Player" to view your content in your HMD. Their is a very large demand for good 360 VR content. I expect you will see more and more content being provided as this tech improves and costs come down. Kind Regards, rob hanson
Q: So do you have to get the sensors and controllers,or do they come with that?
A: If you are looking to purchasing just the HDM only, then yes you will need to buy both sensors and controllers. You will need two sensors if you wont it to work will and one controller will work. Note most content will play better with two controls. It is more cost effective to purchase a complete VR kit if you can. The current VIVE kit is a 2nd gen. If you purchase sensors and controls separately they are most likely going to be 1st gen. Also finding the sensors and controls online and be an issues. The tent to be out of stock a lot. Lastly, if you purchase Sensors and controller separately you will need to update the firmware which is not hard, but can have issues. I have found VIVE support to really good. Kind Regards, rob hanson
A: You can use it to play games like WoW however they require 3rd party mods to get the full VR experience.
Q: Does it work with a gaming laptop that has a gtx 1650
A: No, it will not work with a gaming laptop. It only works with a computer.
