They are a nanny state the opposite of probably everything Rosedale wanted it to be. </p>Eurominuteman commented on 'Can Second Life Become the Killer App for Oculus Rift?

<p>I guess you'd need some sort of "antimouselook" to switch to a 3rd person perspective...maybe the function of mouselook could toggle depending on whether you're using Oculus or not?</p>Orca Flotta commented on 'Can Second Life Become the Killer App for Oculus Rift?

- How do I find my keyboard when wearing the Oculus?<br />
- Can I still see the menu and send notices and IMs? Open the worldmap? Sort inventory? <br />
- Do I have at least an option to view/check my avie from 3rd person perspective?<br />
- How do I make photos?<br />
- Can hubby and me huddle together in front of the oculus and watch videos when I'm not in world? I mean when it costs 200-300 bucks I can only afford either or.<br />
- or is that thing only for gaming? What if I'm not in SL to shoot anybody?</p>cyberserenity commented on 'Can Second Life Become the Killer App for Oculus Rift?

And regarding the price, a new TFT is also sold at 200-300 USD. Some people pay 100 USD for a single computer game. I would buy the Oculus.</p>Hope Dreier commented on 'Can Second Life Become the Killer App for Oculus Rift?
