Alienware Launch ‘Oculus Ready PC’ Pre-Order Campaign

Alienware, a subsidiary of Dell, has today launched the official pre-order campaign for its line of ‘Oculus Ready’ PCs. Itself billing the machines as ‘VR Capable’, Alienware has two systems in the range at present based on Intel i5 and Intel i7 processors.

They offer $200 off the pre-order of an Oculus. That's awesome. Hopefully this line up of PC's are fairly priced. VR needs all the marketing it can get

Alienware has always been about paying for the price of the brand. You can easily build most computers for alot less. Depending on the build, you could save way more then $200, even possibly paying for a oculus rift in full.

The fact that they are offering $200 off kinda implies these computers will be on the higher end of the price scale to justify the $200 off.

agreed Alienware, while still nice when it comes to gaming PC's, definitely overcharges for their builds.

I spent $1500 CDN on a PC that I would have to spend easily over $2000 for if it carried the name Alienware. And even then I may not have gotten a better build.

Yay 200 off Oculus, an extra 700 for an alienware logo.

I played through most of the PS4 version of the game but stopped because another game came out. I bought it last year for PC with the intention of using the VR mod but haven't gotten around to setting it up. I am glad I waited.

Great game, even better in VR. A little drawn out by the end, but I hope we see CA do something a little different with the sequel.

OtterX262d ago (Edited 262d ago )

Sweet. I also rebought this game on Steam for the purpose of VR. I'll have to give it another shot w full immersive controls. I had only tried it out briefly before.

It's funny this was never officially released at retail as a VR game, bc it feels so perfect for it!

Yeah. Not the best dev by a long shot, but I've heard Bulletstorm improved a lot after the initial launch and all the complaints.

Abnor_Mal338d ago

I bought Bulletstorm VR but couldn’t get into it at the time, the controls were a bit off, but at the time I was finishing up Arizona Sunshine1/2. Most likely the reason the controls felt off, plan to go back to it soon.

I really wanted to love Outriders. I was hooked on it at first but it was so janky the further I got into it. I had to force myself to finish the game. I liked it just enough to buy the expansion but I burned through that jankfest also. It sorta gave me Division 2 vibes a little bit and that's what helped me through it. I don't think I would trust any of their VR stuff anyway.
