There's still no word on how much the headset will actually cost. Palmer Luckey, the founder of Oculus, is doing an AMA (a type of public question-and-answer session) on Reddit, at 6PM - which may help to shed some more light.

People who pre-order Oculus Rift will get a free copy of space game "EVE: Valkyrie," the company says, along with "Lucky's Tale," which will come bundled with all headsets.

The Rift isn't a standalone device - a compatible computer is also required to use it. Less than 1% of all computers in the world are able to run virtual reality, according to Nvidia.
