I can definitely see using a seated rig with twin sticks for piloting, and then transitioning to a standing rig for FPS. Just needs to be a very quick transition.

Given the cost of a $2,000 computer, $2,000 16k glasses, $5,000 seat, $500 haptic vest, and $3,500 for this, I am curious about the viability of bringing back Arcades. Would you pay $7/hr to rent VR equipment, especially if the FPS was giving you something akin to a gym workout? What do the business guys here think of a rig like this that pays for itself yearly? Not enough margin?

The complaint the reviewer made about “feeling like running through a video game” likely reflected the poor video he was looking at. What we saw looked very 90’s. I’d like to see a review of Star Citizen in this rig. It looks like you could do a takedown in this, and maybe even silently swing a Vanduul Plasma Lance.
