Anybody that says vr is a gimmick haven't tried a vr racing rig. Not only the fun factor but I'm definitely a better driver now for it.

Flight in VR is truly something else. Not even a simpit can provide that level of immersion. You think jumping into a white dwarf system is spooky in Elite Dangerous? Try doing it with a headset on. When your cockpit is smoking, alarms are blaring, and the panic sets in, you will finally understand.

Yeah but I'd have to play elite dangerous

Fair lol. There are other games with good support but it's the one I played the most in VR
