Played for a brief while last night.

OMG!

The ASP cockpit is like a cross between "Minority report" and a greenhouse in space. It is amazing.

Galaxy Map is borked in VR though. Agreed.

Until CV1 is released ;)

Was fuzzy until I turned off AA, then it got sharper. Not perfect, but far more readable.

The impression of depth is hard to describe. Fuel scooping and looking down between you feet to the boiling sun surface below you. Epic stuff.

Tried some demo applications and tried Half-Life 2 - there is a "VR" version of Steam's Big Picture mode called "Steam VR".

Will have a go with Alien: Isolation over the weekend if I can pull myself off Elite!

I've had to had a small break from that game as play it when everyone has gone to bed IN THE DARK using isolated headphones.
Gave me the collywobbles!

If you manage to get it working, please let me know how. Can't seem to get it running with the DK2 here.

Didn't see a xenomorph though! Guess I'm too early on in the game. Found a virtual tour of the Millennium Falcon on Oculus Share Beta, which was nice.
