I love VR and am so ready to get into this BUT, I'm afraid that one will come out with a set of games and the other will come out with a different set which would be nonsense if games and media aren't compatible with both since they are both VR.

That same logic makes me think that most won't pop 600 for an Oculus plus games then another 800 for the VIVE plus games and whomever else makes a decent headset.


Hololens is still the most attractive idea to date. Can't wait for that one. I'll pop a grand on that in a heartbeat if it's ready for primetime.
