The VIVE Pro is out now – it features 78% more resolution than the first-gen VIVE; one reviewer said the difference made it not just easy to now read text on a book page in VR, but to read text from such a book on the opposite wall of the virtual room.

The main pisser is that it is STILL wired, and doesn’t come as a package deal with vital accessories – like controllers, and sensors – like the VIVE does.

In fact, the stand-alone price for these accessories is so high that it would be CHEAPER to buy the HTC VIVE and VIVE Pro than it would be to buy the VIVE Pro and the accessories separately, which seems to be either a poor pricing choice or a blatant gouge, whichever way you want to look at it.

You’ll also need a shit-hot PC, but by now that’s a given.
