  • brandon9271

  • Jacob Pederson

    Needs a redesign to look more like a Ridley Scott Alien and I’m in.

    • Ind13

      I would prefer the Facehugger look ;)

      But seriously guys, is this very short statement serious journalism?

      • Jamie Abrahams

        yes

  • Paulo Cunha

    It MUST work with mobile devices, so we can get out on the streets using it. Can’t wait.

  • ukrifter

    This nonsense tech doesn’t deserve the oxygen of publicity. This article sums it up beautifully. It is simply a slightly crazy millionaire polluting the well of VR. Nod and smile boys… nod and smile.

  • WormSlayer

    This is exactly the sort of in-depth, technical review I subscribe for :P

  • eidolon

    Review is too long! Can be reduced to one word.

  • Gr8llama

    Yes this is good journalism. To give this piece of junk any more time would be bad journalism. Not an Oculus killer, not even in the oculus league. The makers are either puposely lying to get people in their booth. 30 mins I’ll never get back. Not vr, not ar. Just 3d screen in front of you that doesn’t need glasses. Like a head mounted 3d TV. Not immersive, just not. This thing and the marketing company (because that is who is making this a UK marketing company) are having a laugh I think. This isn’t a oculus, morpheus, cortex, or even an antvr killer. Dive and Google card board are better. They even want nearly 600 bucks for this junk. Sorry. I’m giving it far too much time, but I’m at the airport now and no longer at the show so I’m bored and wanted a better place than my own FB page to talk about this mess. :).

      Sorry above I said they are either purposely lying and then never added the or. So…Or they are clueless and out to lunch. They cant possibly believe their own marketing. If they do though that is where the or comes from. Heh.

  • How’s your neck? :D Brilliant article too, read it multiple times, good key details included. 10/10 will read it again right now!

  • VRG

    Seriously these guys could make more money by charging people to have a photo with the 3dhead headset on.

  • Mageoftheyear

    Hahahahahaha!!! XD
    Hehehe… hehe… oh my, oh my I was not expecting that.
    My ribs hurt.

  • ZarShevak

    Fov ? Pound? Joke? That not funny(or just a bit :))

  • John Horn

    Hilarious! Yep, they asked for it.
    In the video interview here https://www.roadtovr.com/3dhead-oculus-killer-interview-ces-2015-james-jacobs/

    You can see how “out of his element” the sales pitch guy is.. at 06:10 he says that
    “If it’s a keyboard and mouse game, I DO not want to take my hand of the keyboard to find the mouse!”

    o_O
