399€ and i might be on board. I guess that'll be in a year.

I'd still take the Vive over this due to the accessories already being released and in the works for it.

I'm not really in for it for the accessories, i mainly want VR for Assetto Corsa, even though i do see some potential for ED with the controllers. I think the Vive is the more attractive product as well though, which is probably the reason for this price cut.

I think its the Kickstart accessory that will effectively remove the wires limiting VR right now. Vive has one in the works which apparently has incredibly low latency, and good battery life. So yes Oculus are worried.

I still get motion sickness using Oculus. Not tried the Vive though.
