DK2 = Oculus Rift Developer Kit V2 (The one currently shipping).

Two more videos of Project Cars running on a DK2 (as with the above, these are actually shot with a camera looking into the Rift) https://www.youtube.com/embed/DMWqpdCNj6E?feature=oembed

Via: NeoGaf The much anticipated 'Project Cars' running on the DK2 - https://www.youtube.com/embed/BBG-YJLCEv4?feature=oembed The realism of the rain is said to be especially convincing.

Via: NeoGaf Notch must have been unable to resist the lure of VR...

Looks like throwing buckets of cash for exclusivity is going to be part of the strategy - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=872876 "Rise of the Tomb Raider" to be XB1 exclusive - whether timed or permanently they aren't being entirely clear.

If we're including pre-electronic games, I have a bunch of these 'Pocketeers' - http://www.masters.me.uk/pocketeers/completelist-pocketeers.htm Marketed by Palitoy in the UK, Tomy elsewhere. Some of these would probably work really well as recreations for smartphones..

Razor Crazy Kart promo - https://www.youtube.com/embed/sKOaF7esBFY?feature=oembed If you don't know what one is, they reveal it (take the box off) at the end. Basically a bumper-car setup, a drive wheel directly connected to the steering wheel, two free castors at the front for stability, and...

 The Pandora only outputs S-Video or Composite (switchable in settings, not both at once) and the 1084s only takes RGB through it's 9pin port. The 1084s will take composite signals through it's RCA (Phono) connectors - there are usually two beside the 9pin port, one for luminance one for...

For the gamer on a budget, there's always - http://www.retrobuiltgames.com/diy-kits-shop/porta-pi-arcade-7in-lcd/ Without the Raspberry Pi it needs, $350 in wood or $450 in acrylic, for all the bits you need (assembled). Appears to be more or less the same device otherwise.

Unless you have a specific need to, you don't need to change the bios for different game regions, it behaves as 'region-free' under emulation. Your choice of 50/60hz output is independent of the selected bios, so may as well keep 60hz by default.

There are - literally - hundreds of Hatsune Miku demos for Oculus Rift, it seems to be the No.1 use for Unity in Japan. Then there's the few who take it one step beyond: http://kotaku.com/oculus-rift-finally-lets-you-kiss-hatsune-miku-1574986608

Could only find this clip from 1992's "Toys" (on youtube) in Italian - https://www.youtube.com/embed/QAwDCblpNHA?feature=oembed The conversation at the end of her VR rafting is, more or less, "I love it! But I'm not sure about having to stick these things up my nose." "They go in your ears"

The first images and info of Samsung's (Oculus partnered) next-gen Galaxy smartphone VR adapter - now named 'Gear VR' - are out: http://www.sammobile.com/2014/07/08/exclusive-samsungs-virtual-reality-headset-will-be-called-gear-vr-launch-at-ifa-2014/ To be launched this September at IFA 2014...

Actually, one of the things that keeps coming up in Oculus dev talk, is that traditional FPS games are not universally suitable candidates for VR, though they are an obvious one (Half Life 2 in VR is almost a religious experience for some). A first person view in sim-style games (Elite, Flight...

They've only just announced DK2 shipping is to start, but before it does they've weeded out 'large numbers' of preorders that they believe were intended for resale - all in China, for now: http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2014-07-04-oculus-halts-dev-kit-shipments-to-china...

One of those giant Jaffa Cakes? I bet it's just a bowl of Cointreau with chocolate bits floating in it.

Looks good in black on their site, that ribbon connector looks vulnerable, seems to get pinched when closed rather than retracting into the base. Price is.... a bit steep! If you're in the money though, why not.
