We fought through the crowds to try Oculus's new VR goggles so you don't have to bother (and frankly, you shouldn't)

Re: Been waiting...

I tried that... Uncanny Valley territory..

when I drive aggressively I use more than just my hands so not being able to feel the engine through the pedals feels wrong, not feeling the brakes bite, the sensation of the road surface beneath my feet (and arse) was disjointed.

Also the clutch gave no indication of bite point at all as well as I really could have done with the gearstick being moved since I kept missing the damn thing owing to it being about 3inches away from where the headset said it was.

All in all a very dislocated experience and I felt quite sick afterwards (for the record I've played with rally cars, been on the back of motorcycles doing triple figures and set fire to the brakes on a vauxhal nova from driving it with enthusiasm). The lack of feedback is just too distracting.
