Question

Any UK Rifters Here?

Just curious as to how many of you are based in the UK like me? Still waiting for my CV1 but looks like it might be a couple of months yet :(

    I'm based in Shropshire. LeeG what are your impressions of the Vive so far? Best features?



    Hey, sorry for not responding sooner.

    I'm loving the Vive. Getting up and around is truly amazing. I also find it a great cardio workout with some games.

    I have a play area of 2m x 2.7m (converted garage) and find this is plenty of room for all the games I've tried, including 'Budget Cuts'. My favourite games at the moment are:

    For room VR - Audio Shield, Holopoint and Space Pirate Trainer.

    Seated VR - Elite Dangerous.

    I plan to spend some time with the Rift and keep it unless Frontier can sort out the small graphical issues with the Vive (this is not a huge issue to me).

    Had mine for a over a month now, although only been playing it for the past week, as I was working down south for the first 3 weeks.  It got delivered the day I left for work, unbelievable!

    I'm in North Norfolk,got my Rift 09:30 this morning. Quite scared to unbox it, as there are plenty of you getting problems with damaged hdmi cables. Can't test my Rift yet anyway, as I need a new graphics card to power it.....
