My eldest got one (Quest 2) a few months back and I've got to admit I was more impressed by it than I expected

BUT whenever I talk to people about them for the first time I can never no not mention this sketch. Apologies in advance @Clint

I remember back in 2016 when i got oculus rift vr, a few friends that never ever had played any kind of video games, was blown away by vr.

There was one demo where you was stood on top of sky scraper in new york looking down, belive me it made your legs go like jelly, had a few ppl take the head set off and grab the table lol :)

I got my wife tickets to see him this year as a Christmas present. I think the last time that I saw him live was about ten or eleven years ago, too long!

I had an Oculus Rift a few years ago using it with a flight simulator and it was amazing to immerse yourself in a 3D world.
However I have glasses and can't wear contact lenses and I found using the set was very uncomfortable with glasses on. I tried lens inserts but still couldn't get on with it.
I ended up giving it to my son.
