Question

which is better oculus or vive

ive already jumped on the band wagon and got a oculus but finding it stupidly hard to get a 3 sensor in uk .so does any one know if vive have the same  problems..just asking  as they are now on sale and as I been told I can play all the oculus games on the vive I'm looking at upgrading as long as they have the surport in uk unlike oculus it may seem hash but not one retailer overclockers scan john lewis ,currys say they have any intentions of stocking the sensor.but offered me a new bundle.

    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.
