My laptop is getting up on age and with VR about to me in the mainstream, I broke down and pre-ordered a bundle. Bought the highest tier which was actually about half the cost of the system alone without the VR headset.

This will cause a huge problem, with the wheel and pedals plus the VR with the inside the helmet camera view I might forget to eat and just play ProjectCARS until I pass out.

Anyone else hopping on the VR train early? I was originally going to wait until the gen2 stuff but just couldn't pass up the deals of these pre-order combo packages.

I was planning on going VR, VF. But got cold feet when the first pre-order was announced. I want to make sure that I'm not one of those people who get VR sickness and for the price to drop a bit. Not quite ready to shell out the dough for the headset AND a new PC.

Yeeeeeeehaaaaaaw!!

The PC I got in the bundle if bought stand alone would be almost twice as much, not including the 600 Rift. It was a deal to good to pass up. i7 4.0GHz cpu. 16 gigs ram, gtx980 PLUS the $600 rift was $2300 shipped. Even if I get VR sickness the PC is over a grand cheaper by itself.

I also needed a new rig anyways as mine is showing its age so I could justify the cost as some system builds I looked at with lesser specs from doghouse systems and newegg where 3k-3.8k

I was originally going to wait till the gen 2 stuff like alot of people. But then I was like screw it, whats the point of working if I dont enjoy the fruits of my labor =)
