    Does not work properly with the gaming computer. Sales person stated it should work but it doesn't and now need to do an upgrade on the computer to make it work. Had I known I needed to update computer, I would not have purchased this VR system.

    Very fun but you must make sure your computer has the right cable cause it doesn't use HDMI , otherwise you can't play it.

    Taxing on the GPU but totally worth it

    So much fun! Requires quite a bit of GPU power to get good frame rates but with a decent graphics card, it's a magical experience.

    It is fun for all ages. Will say that there have been some pc hardware and driver issues to work thru. Have been able to down load games via steam cards.

    The one we ordered appeared to set up just fine, but kept failing. Hours of troubleshooting, including email exchanges with Oculus, led us to conclude it was a hardware problem. Returning for a new one and we've had zero problems. Lots of fun and simple to use. When you get one that works.

    Not designed for everyone, and horrible software

    This HMD with no mechanical IPD adjustment is sub-par. The supposed software IPD adjustment had zero impact to the image. Center of user's field of View was always a blurry mess. The only thing worse than the lack of adjustment is the horrendous software. For a company that has released numerous products, and has a parent company with almost unlimited resources, you would hope that the software could accurately detect USB root bridges and their driver versions. On top of that if you make the apparently inexcusable decision to close the software, the only way to get the unit to work again is to restart the computer! This would be understandable from a brand new company, Oculus is NOT that.

    Awesome, I had never tried VR before getting this and was blown away instantly. It takes you to another place when you put it on. Very cool experiences.

    Make sure you have plenty of space around the room wherever you set this up. My son and I got a good work out playing the games he purchased for this.

    All it takes is to download the occulus app for it and then plug it into your computer and it works. You do have to have a powerful computer though.

    That fit on your head is amazing but battery life in the controllers don’t last long I don’t like the fact that the reg rift was 90fps and rift is is only 80 FPS and speaker sound on them are worse the the original rift
