Oculus Rift commercial version.

Good for its time, but would not recommend Oculus hardware again due to their now mandatory linking to Facebook, you must maintain an active Facebook account with real name and have it running in the background to access Oculus gear. Also sowas geht ja mal gar nicht.

Old longtime users like me have been given time until Decembre 2022.

Consider HP Reverb G2 instead. Narrower viewing field, but crispier, much higher resolution. You need a stronger gfx card for that beast, howevert. Headphones are said to be not as good as on the Rift. And due to the different trackign method (sensors are in the headset, not separate on the table), hand tracking is not as precise at times. For a cockit sim like a race sim it might be irrelevant, for table tennis it could be something potentially troubling.
