.....GabeN was responding to a question asking whether the games had been canned, he said no. At no point was he asked about the headset or did he confirm anything about the VR headset.

Ok let's get the ball rolling on what our options are for other headsets now or upcoming other then the oculus offerings. Link where possible and opinions of them or predictions. This could be a fun thread for all so keep it civil 😉

Valve representative Doug Lombardi confirmed to me there would be no VR updates at GDC from Valve but that it remains an area of interest and investment for the company.
“We still see VR as being really important, we still see a lot of people adopting it,” Lombardi said. “In the short term, or the not too distant future, we are going to be talking more about…what’s happening on Steam with VR past, present and future, but it just won’t be happening here at the show.”

This thread does a great job of showcasing the pushback consumers are voicing right now over Rift-S. As we can clearly see, there are zero viable options lolThose headsets are quite depressing. They aren't fit for PCVR enthusiasts. This will just be another year long wait for Rift CV2. Some of those may be good for SIM enthusiasts due to the limited requirements of full 360 room-scale tracking. The rest can be thrown on a kiddie ride at a VR Arcade. But nothing proper for Home PCVR.

Yea coupling the HP with a Vive tracking system or just going for the Vive Pro are really your only real alternatives if you want a full Rift like experience and you will pay a big premium for them.
