The team behind the Oculus Rift virtual reality headset says kits will begin shipping to developers in March 2013. The headset was originally scheduled to ship in December 2012 but the delay has allowed the Oculus team to add a better screen.

"The bright side is that the new display beats the old display in almost every key area including response time, switching time, contrast, and color quality," the team said in a statement. "The improved switching time of the panel actually alleviates most of the motion blur people saw in earlier prototype demos.

"The downside to our new 7’’ is the weight differential: approximately 30g more than the 5.6’’." The goal is to have more than 7,500 headsets manufactured for the first shipment.

What the fuck took this so long?

Even after seeing the video, I don't understand.

I remember about 20 years ago, when I was 10 years old, at a Dave & Busters, I played a two-player first person "shooter" (you lobbed some grenades or something at eachother, in a crude hexagonal world while also dodging pterodactyls flying overhead), and remember having my mind completely fucked. I was in fucking Lawnmower Man. Why the fuck is it taking 20 years to take a single step forward from that? I don't get it. Especially when so many of the iPhone games include "augmented reality", what's so hard about strapping it to your head?
