They'll have to make a video game where you go into a house, sit down in front of a computer, and pull up Video Sift... Then watch the videos in 2D through your Oculus Rift.

They are already. You can go to their homepage and pre-order one right now. The next batch of orders is currently expected to ship out in September, hence the "pre-order" bit. So if you actually want one you can get them within a few months by ordering now, or faster if you get one from eBay (will cost extra though). =)

Though if you're sensible you'd wait for the consumer model, which will have a better screen (higher pixel density to lower the "screendoor" effect, lower switch times for less motion blur, better contrast) as well as other nice features (positional tracking on top of directional tracking, so you can actually look around corners, not just pivot your head). You'll be waiting for those for a year or two though. =)

That was awesome. I can't wait until these are commercially available.

My friend has one of the dev versions. I got to play Half-Life 2 on it for a while. I agree. It's going to be a revolution.

Tried one the other day - it's going to be a revolution. Probably NOT just for games.
