Acer and Starbreeze have begun shipping StarVR to IMAX, offering a resolution of 2560x1440 per eye and a field of view that is around 2x wider than the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive.

Wait, is this the same Starbreeze that made Escape From Butcher Bay?

Either way this headset sounds phenomenal! I haven't been sold on VR at all, to the point I've basically ignored it as a fad for the last few years. Just recently I've considered it's uses for racing/flight sim set-ups and kind of accepted it's here to stay this time.

Being that both race and flight sim set-ups can be ludicrously expensive, especially if you want the haptic feedback systems to give a worthwhile experience when paired with VR then this headset would seem like the perfect combination.

Truth be told if I had the cash that would be my next project, high system requirements be damned.

so this is effectively 4k (rendering size)? thought i read that 90fps is the ideal for VR. gonna need some serious rig to run one of these
