That's one heck of a treadmill!

Imagine how fit we'll be after 3 hours of ARMA on that a couple of nights per week :lol:
No one wants to be left behind and everyone running like hell up the hills, breathing as
heavily IRL as the AVATAR after a couple of minutes :icon_twisted:

This thing would definately keep me from ever playing a video game again.

Haha, you lazy sodd

It's perfect, don't need a gym card any more. Training comes when having fun with the mates in ARMA3 :jumpflame::jumpflame:

They have machines like this at my local gym, but it's in exercise bike form. They have xbox's hooked up to the bikes, and you need to keep the pedalling above a certain rpm otherwise the system shuts off. Genius. But these with the Oculus etc. look fantastic!

It seems "VR" is seeing a bit of a resurgence in the media. Maybe it's because 3D didn't take off as much as they thought...

I'm tired just watching it lol.

I didn't notice in any of the videos but are you able to prone and crawl? I know you can lean and jump but didn't' see the other two.

Is it just me or does it look ingame like he's holding a vibrator?

Wonder how we can put a cockpit into that thing for our flight sim crew.

lol wishful thinking d00d.

Remember next time to use your inside voice.

This is rather interesting, I already regularly use the treadmill while gaming.. $500 to have my actions on the treadmill input in the game would be rather amazing.

Prone you can do and crawl is simulated via buttons and prone walk i think.
You need to be on your feet all the time
