Oculus Rift Deals & Offers

Pretty pointless posting it if it's (presumably) the only one there and you bought it...

Had a go on one today for the first time. Amazing.

Meh

Got me excited for a second. Been looking for one at a lower price for a while.

Damn no Flee games.

if your PC can handle it - this.

Is this all I need to start playing? I think I know the answer to this but, this or psvr?

then that's really good. those free games will keep you going for a good while. esp robo recall.. Rec Room is also alot of fun and free.

You still get the free games robot recall, Lucky's tale etc

good price.. no freebies, but pair this with the giftcard offer and the prime student deal you can get it for 325

Good price. Not great but best about ATM. Heat added. I am obsessed with VR. It has really pulled me back into gaming big style. Here's a list of some of my fave games/experiences so far - Beat Sabre (makes you a sweaty mess) Pavlov VR (Counter Strike in VR and only £7) Fallout 4 VR Hotdogs Horseshoes and Hand Grenades (gun ranges) Payday 2 Standout VR (PUBG in VR) Google Earth

Mate I'm so ****ing lazy haha, I really need to get it set up lol

Wasting 300 quid of tech for 20 minutes of installation effort?! Pull your finger out, get it done! ;) I returned mine 'cos it didn't play well with spectacles; not something so easy (or cheap) to fix. :( Though I also had some misgivings about the long term durability, and Oculus' lackluster support for their hardware.

I used it for about 2 weeks and haven't touched mine since and are gathering dust haha, I think the main issue with mine is that I haven't been able to hook my sensors up on the roof or wall and have them sitting on my desk which takes up a lot of space.

This was £350 new for a few months

Also mine didn't even look like it had been set up. Plastic still on sensors and cables perfectly coiled as from factory. Just ask to look in the box, you'll soon know if it's been used or not. Might even just be a display one that's been in display case.

You don't have to use a code to activate games. They just showed as free for me. Think they are essentially useless if you don't own the Rift anyway.

Yeah every other game I've tried it is overkill but with that combo and a grid of 26 cars, you can only run at medium high settings. Mostly medium with a couple of less intensive bits at high quality. Its not bad by any means but it could be better, if I could play with everything cranked up to ultra and run at 90fps the Oculus would look better but I suppose I'll have to wait for the 11 series cards and see how they fair.

Well obviously I am almost certain a used unit will actually be used If the PC wasn't fast enough they would have to test it therefore activating it and testing some games

You're all assuming it's actually being used let alone games activated. It's either an opened return or they had trouble setting up or the pc wasn't fast enough for it. It's unlikely someone has used for 30 days and returned.

It's been one of the VR games I regularly go back to. It's a pretty good workout and although there's little variation and no depth - It's still fun.

Or spice :/

Probably stoned out of his mind. ;)

I have tried the latter, rather than a fight, it almost ended up as a Cuckold type scenario :S

You can get a realistic experiance, all you have to do is go into a bar, take a sip out of someone's drink alternatively you can go up to someone's wife and ask her for the succy succy long time

They work but not great, the default setting are just terrible, trying to aim the bow makes it feel and act like a kango hammer is straped to it. lol

Played through skyrim twice before I bought the VR version for 40 quid and it was worth every penny. You'll spend most of your time modding but it's in a different league. 🔥

One can indeed, the Touch controllers work in-game with no workarounds required. (it even works on the DK2 though you're limited to a control pad and head aiming).

Can one play on oculus rift? Best way to?

Not played skyrim (although I have the game on steam from somewhere, not got round to installing it). How does it compare to say, witcher 3? Fancy another VR game to get in to after star trek and doom, was going to be this or fall out 4, which I haven't played either

Can anyone install games - I keep getting errors

I'm partnered up with hurk and his mam. Lethal them two but if it's missions you need to save something ie. A helicopter, you've had it. I've had to get rid of them both on some missions. Far cry 5 is going down legendary for me along with creed origins. Ubisoft has come out of nowhere to become my favourite devs/Publishers. I don't even mind Uplay :D

I am currently addicted to Far Cry 5 and in love with Boomer. I want a Boomer game now.

Nice one, thanks for that

Get that rift back out of that box! 8) There's been some amazing games released over the last year. Mines been tied up for a few weeks mind, due to creed origins and far cry 5, but can't wait to get stuck back in :D

I actually haven't, I didn't think it was possible?

Do we know when the store sales will end?

Anywhere doing the £50 credit with any discount on the £399 price? eg Currys have 5% quidco but no mention of this deal

Have you actually tried using it? Apart from the onscreen warning it ran fine on my old GTX760.....

I'd try and get a cheap 970 to set up your rift, they are sometimes £130 You should contact Facebook about when the offer expires to claim your games.

This is fantastic. Well worth 6quid.

I spent a couple of hours playing this at EGX a couple of years ago. I couldn't put it down until I finished it. It was on a 14" monitor and I thought it was brilliant then. In VR it must be amazing.

It's a strange game this, although excellent. I really enjoyed it.

Oh, I'm getting this. Thanks. Must admit, since getting my rift a few weeks ago, I've bought more games than I've played.... Thank you preschool son and 5 week old baby

Seemed they had grand ambitions but just like CCP are now dumping. They've removed the IBM Watson voice support now, no updates etc ..

You can play this on your Tod, but it's really, really dull

Do you need mates to play this or can those lacking social skills play with the AI ?

No, you should wear a cycle helmet and safety specs in case of Klingons :S

Can I play this just on my PC without a helmet?

These both look good, for Zelda and Myst fans

Thanks for sharing - looks a decent price :)

Didn't know about their bundles. They're doing Superhot VR (£18.99) with Arizona Sunshine (£29.99) for £21.99 I highly recommend Superhot VR (once you get past the stupid shoot yourself bit)

Yep completely agree. I knew the risks. I only really wanted the climb so had checked revive for its compatibility before buying. My only complaint was the level of customer service from Oculus. I guess I've been spoilt with Amazon customer service and steam offering refunds if you play less than 2 hours.

Didn’t you try to use ReVive or whatever the software is to use Oculus stuff on other headsets?? At the end of the day you can’t complain about compatibility for a headset the oculus software should not support. I own the Rift and I knew the risks about buying LA Noire but I still bought it and it didn’t work well, I was disappointed but I knew the risks. Oh well...

I bought this to go with the Samsung Odyssey. I wanted the Climb so Job simulator was a bonus. The climb I enjoy, it looks nice and works well with the Samsung Odyssey. Job Simulator doesn't work. It forces you to have an Oculus Rift plugged in. I contacted Oculus and they simply told me in there T&Cs that they do not allow refunds on bundles. Worth noting this as it's put me right off using them if I can get away with it. The Climb is an Oculus exclusive so I had no choice but now knowing how un-helpful they would be I dont know I'd I'd risk it again. NOTE.... my comments are based on using a non Oculus headset however they didn't know this.

I've got the £11 compensation payment for my Rift account at work. Any recommendations that I can get for £11?

This is a great game - works on Vive with Revive no bother. https://github.com/LibreVR/Revive/wiki/Compatibility-list

Thanks OP, added to collection.

Cool thanks for the info would have been nice to get both in one package but mainly want to try out the vr

To my knowledge the steam version is 2d only. So pretty much. If you own it from previous to oculus store releasing the dev did at one point give keys out for oculus store.

is vr exclusive to oculus then?

Good way to use the free voucher, been waiting for a super deal for this

You can play Oculus store games on a Windows Mixed Reality headset using Revive.

Hope the Steam version drops at some point.

Give it a go. I've watched all 3 series so many times i've lost count.

You've got me sussed...

There's some amazing free experiences that are probably better than paid games. Google earth takes some beating.

Added to title. Can't leave any VR gamers out :D

Just got an Oculus Rift this week and have been looking for games to play with it. I'm loathe to pay full price again for VR versions of games I already own, such as Fallout 4 and Skyrim (although I will probably cave eventually). I'd much rather pay for games that are a whole new, if slightly shorter experience, such as Doom VFR, although of course the best ones are the games that work with or without VR but the VR mode is just included in the same version of the game, for example Elite: Dangerous and now Payday 2. Turns out I have about 10 such games on Steam already, so I'll be working my way through those this weekend!

Works with Windows Mixed Reality as well.

Same must have got it in a code bundle or giveaway as I'm sure I never bought it on purpose :).

Duck season is inside the £11 limit too, I went for that tbh

Rather spend on something I cannot just grab from cs.rin for free, so that narrows it down to a few Oculus exclusives.

pffft! save your money? what are you doing on this site!? :/

FWIW - The Oculus credit is good for 12 months.

Oculus anniversary sale is soon, save your credit.

you mean like bitcoin miners :p

That is true but at least this way you aren’t funding organised crime! :D

probably worth mentioning many titles are pretty cheap on keystores, example Arizona Sunrise averages about £12.80 for steam keys.

Trolling me they are. No bundle with Rick & Morty :(

why does it not do the same with the other bundles?
