For those of you who aren't sure about purchasing the HTC VIVE: I wasn't sure myself. I've followed the VR scene very closely for about 5 years now and was worried that the VIVE wouldn't meet my expectations of what I want virtual reality to be. It didn't meet what I had set myself up for, which was some insane, crazy technology that would bring about the next generation of competitive gaming that was at a level of completely free movement and involvement. I'm HUGE into competitive gaming (CoD, Battlefield, SMITE, League of Legends....I've practically tried every shooter, MMO, and MOBA on the market today) and frankly don't stray from the competitive scene very often at all. Unfortunately the VIVE is restrictive on movement for now, at least until the wireless transmitter pack hits the consumer market. This coupled with the fact that the headset doesn't quite fit my face as well as I'd hope and slips around slightly during gameplay, making it hard to look directly downward is somewhat annoying to deal with at times. HOWEVER, this was absolutely worth the purchase and is fairly priced for what you're getting for your buck. Possibly the most impressive part of the entire system is that it's tracking of the controllers is SPOT ON. There is absolutely no lag at all on my system. In fact, with the headset on in most games I can throw the controller in the air and catch it in the opposite hand because of how accurately tracked the controllers are when you see them in games. This device alone has reinvigorated a childlike wonderment in me that has been absent for far too long. Is my movement restricted while moving? Yes. Am I going to see some hyper competitive, hardcore gameplay that is by my standard perfectly tuned and natural feeling? Probably not. Has using this product been THE most magical experience I've ever had in my 20 years of gaming? ABSOLUTELY! (I'm 22 years old. Believe it or not I was playing Tomb Raider by age 2 on the Playstation 1. Whether or not that was a bad parenting choice on the part of my parents is another conversation haha). It is quite honestly an extraordinary experience and will show you that this is definitely the way gaming will be heading in the future. You wouldn't believe how immersed you'll get even when you know there are cords hanging off the back of your head. This device isn't going to bring about the Sword Art Online universe that you, and I, are way too excited about becoming a possibility some day. In fact that's probably another 30 or 40 so years off until we have stable versions of such technology if you want my educated opinion (I have a Computer Science degree with a minor in Neurobiology and have participated in many studies with a select few companies actively seeking to bring about something of the sort). However, don't be dissuaded by that notion. All together if you're considering getting the HTC VIVE and aren't sure if it's worth the money, let me be the first of many to tell you it absolutely is. It is an utterly magical experience using it for the first time, and continues to be so with every new game I try. The HTC Vive is frankly an huge step for the VR scene, buying one will be an investment into the future of the VR market, and it is an astounding experience in of itself using the technology. It's extremely immersive, unnervingly so at times, and will help show you that there is definitely a place for VR games in the future. Hopefully you decide to pick one up and have just as much of a blast as I have been!

I absolutely love this. Got to try this for the first time with my brother who has this same set. I was open to the new world of gaming and I have to say after 20 years of gaming, the things VR is capable of still leave me breathless. After experiencing it I wished to purchase one so I did. However, the set up I can see might overwhelm some people. Thankfully I have some knowledge of current technology but I can see where others might get frustrated. So consider this a PSA. For starters, it came with several cords. HDMIs, USBs, and AC adapters. It did NOT come with instructions. However either use of the internet and/or use of common sense, and a little bit of patience, this can be set up no problem. So the first thing you want to do is remove the controllers and the charging cables. (They come with USB AC adapters and there are 2 of them.) Plug them in on the bottom and they should light up that they are charging. Let them charge about 2 hours. Next, there will be a little box inside that should have two plug in sides to it. And they should be marked what side is what. One will connect to the computer and the other to the headset. This will require a power outlet. You’ll plug in the power on the box and connect the usb and HDMI provided into the box and the pc, the hdmi and usb attached to the headset will connect to the box. Just remember, the side that connects to power, is the side that connects to the computer. (This is just with patience and process and elimination.) Next you want to plot out where you are going to be playing this at. You’ll need adequate space. This set comes with 2 sensors that can be neatly attached to the wall or placed. I recommend mounting them (you’ll need screws, 4 to be exact, not included.) NOW THIS IS IMPORTANT: these sensors have to be able to visibly track the headset and the controllers. (Also, you’ll need close plug ins for both sensors. They have to have power, so make sure a wall outlet is close to where you put them.) If they are not, this system will not work. And you will see nothing and think, “oh I have a broken VR, great..” no this isn’t the case. This is probably the trickiest part to it. If you have a Steam account on PC you can go through Steam VR which is free. (not sure if it runs you through this or not after hookup, as I already had a Steam account and Steam VR.) Having this, will walk you through a tutorial on how to get the proper set up. This helped me tremendously as I had trouble getting the headset and controllers to be visible to the two sensors. Now you’ll want to pair the controllers to the PC which again, the Steam VR program is probably the best tool to help. It’ll walk you through a zone and test what kind and size play area for it. Just make sure you have adequate height when placing the sensors. It recommended a 6.5 feet up. After all of that. Maybe simple for some, maybe hair pulling for others, for me it was a little of both. I hope I have or will have helped someone get started with this. It’s great. You feel like your in it. It’s something new to me. Something not stale like normal video games are nowadays. And if you have the money, (which this is reasonably priced compared to some of the headsets out now) the patience, (easy or hard for some) the space, and your ready to take gaming to the next level, then I recommend this to you 100%. This is also great for parties and families alike. Basically a virtual reality Wii. And I really recommend using Steam since they have some free games for VR and some that are very cheap and sometimes on sale. So thank you for reading my one million word review. I hope it helps. Sorry for all the run on sentences. Lol. Enjoy!
