Developer Takes Oculus DK2 to NYC Salon for Public Demos

Oculus DK2 is now dropping into the hands of developers around the world and while a lot of people have tried it out at gaming events and trade shows, these are people who are usually of a gaming mindset, or already know about the technology to some extent. What if you were to take it into a NYC salon and try it out on the unsuspecting public to see what they think of it? Well that’s exactly what this guy has done.

Equipped with a DK2 and a high end gaming laptop that features the 3940XM ,680 SLI and a three demos; Sightline: The Chair, UE4 Coaster and Chilling Space.

Having had a few goes on the DK2 and having one of my own already on its way to me, I know what it is like to run through these demos, but it’s still great fun to watch other peoples reactions to this kind of experience.

As a child still in my 30's (but not for long), I spend my day combining my love of music and movies with a life-long passion for gaming, from arcade classics and retro consoles to the latest high-end PC and console games. So it's no wonder I write about tech and test the latest hardware while I enjoy my hobbies!
