Cody in 5 years: "Anything under 120fps is unacceptable!" (Destiny)

Is the VR bleeding edge tech rendering at 120fps each eye or is that marketing twist for 60fps each?

The accepted minimum seems to be 90fps. Both eyes updated at 90hz. From my own experience, the current 1080 x 1200 per eye is pretty horrendous. Carmack has said minimum 8k per eye to eliminate seeing pixels.

Math here.

Present-day VR makes me excited for 2nd gen VR. It'll be much better. Right now it's still fun to have and play around with, but it could be better.

In terms of visual quality yes, but here are inherent problems that are impossible to overcome without fundamentally new tech. Not saying it's worthless, as I'd spring in a second for Gran Turismo VR, but it's only good in very specific circumstances.
