Mainly looking at a few headsets to see which might be suitable for another company to build some VR stuff for us. Last week I got to have a quick go of Half Life Alyx on a Valve Index. It was very impressive! Considering I&#39;m not really a gamer, it really grabbed my attention. Now I find myself sort of tempted to get one. If I do then it&#39;ll definitely be a Vale Index despite the lead time. It was better than the really high end Varjo one that cost 10x the price.</p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;">Unfortunately, I&#39;ll be leaving the company soon so won&#39;t be able to try it out any further for myself. A question for those of you who might have bought a VR headset. Do you still find it useful / interesting or is it the sort of thing where the gimmick soon wears off?</p><p><p align="center">[Please visit the site to access the poll]</p></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: vr, virtual reality</div>
