THAT IS FRICKIN' AWESOME

Just not going to work as you can see it's too difficult to track and center , the response time is far slower then someone using control sticks as you can also see.

It might be nice but try this against control users and you will get owned just like this guy did .

Not compatible unless you make the headset the vanilla controls .

The tech is so old that you would think that they would have some type of remedy for that by now , it's over twenty years old . I remember embarrassing myself by puking on my nephews floor in the early 2000's using his headset .

I was done with that ish after that happened .

Yeah, I dont think I could put up with waiting for my dramamine to kick in before I game.

Edit: whats his name? I might actually log in to throw him some isk. The video makes me nauseous enough without trying to get his name from one of his two tiny screens on my phone..

Impressive. This looks like an ideal way to play with the PS Move. It's always been irksome how the crosshair doesn't 'perfectly' sync up with your move controller when pointing it at a screen. Now with an enclosed screen (VR Headset), between you and the controller that effect is diminished.

Bonus Feature: Not being distracted by the glowing blue ball for the IR camera to track.

I think he's just put a camera on his head and is recording his TV while shaking the head, then he doubles the screen and crops it to look like VR...

Oh yeah its not 3d in this case. The ps3 is probably outputting to a PC which is duplicating the image and sending it to the rift to run both eyes, and then he's using move directly tied to the ps3 for controls.

It's not the headset that's the problem. There are thousands of people in the EVE: Valkyrie Alpha and almost no reports of motion sickness.

The issue is the lack of a frame of reference in First-Person-Shooters. In pretty much every other VR game, you either sit still or are inside of a cockpit that doesn't move, thereby giving your brain a frame of reference for the fact that your body isn't moving while the outside surroundings are.

You can't get that in an FPS. We all know what sitting still in a car while still moving at high speed is like, but when you're wearing a headset that is giving your brain visual and audio that say you're moving while the rest of your senses say you're sitting still, you're going to get motion sickness.

Personally I think it'd be sick as hell to play the game on PSVR with the PS Move Sharpshooter and get that full immersion feel, but the sad fact is that you run into the problem I stated of your senses providing conflicting information to your brain.

There have been some experiments that have found that rendering a "virtual nose" at the lower corner of each display can help give your brain a frame of reference for movement, and it might be possible to render a physical helmet that stays stationary while the outside moves to help combat the dissociation, but at this time that's still very much a work in progress.

Idiot

First off, awesome find.

Second, props to the guy for trying.

Third, the problem with Dust and the Oculus Rift is that Dust 514 is not specifically designed for a full VR experience. Although Microsoft Flight Simulator X dates back to around 2010 and it somehow works seamlessly with the Oculus Rift.

Keep in mind that the development of the Oculus Rift didn't start until around 2012 and now we will see commercial release later this year (2016). This tells me that the Oculus Rift is flexible enough to work with even very old games and simulators. But to be honest, VR works best with flight sims like War Thunder, IL-2 Sturmovik, and Eve: Valkyrie.
