    As to your thread title, the simple answer is: it depends. If you have a large space, wear glasses or have a strangely-shaped head, the Vive is probably a better choice. If you want to use it in an arcade, the Vive is probably a better choice. Otherwise the Rift.

    I own both, and the Vive has been packed away since my Touch controllers arrived last year.

    I have both I can say at this point in time the rift is better. Surprising seeing how bad they were getting beat on the first year of launch. Even when the Vive gets the new controllers the headset is still just to heavy even with the new head strap. We will just have to see what they come up with for gen 2... which will come out way before Oculus. Oculus could even sell the company off before then for all I know.... but anyway for right now Oculus is better.
