In a few minutes I will be in a boxing ring sweating my ass off in a fight.

Next I will play a few games of table tennis or maybe some golf.

Maybe I will end my session killing some zombies in the desert.

The neat part is when I put my headset on I am truly transported to a different world. The sense of scale is perfect, I am no longer in my living room. It gives me a chance to experience things that I would have never experienced. Its amazing.

I've been thinking about getting a headset myself. Which one are you using?

Can't wait for someone to make a Moonman VR Curbstomping simulator.

Avoid Oculus, it's full of Zuck shit. Currently the best is the Valve Index, but it's not cheap and stock levels vary. If you can find a working second hand Vive it's a good starting point, as the lighthouses (the IR laser beacons used for tracking) are compatible with the Index headset and controllers. There are cheaper headsets but there are tradeoffs, like graphics quality, tracking system, controller, and supported platforms.

I have a Rift S. For a while I used a Quest 2 but it is buggy and never worked smoothly. Also it uses compression so despite higher resolution it looked worse than the Rift S. The Rift S is great and they can be found for next to nothing used. Check Craigslist and offer someone $100. They will accept.
