The much hyped world of VR is about to crash its way into 2016 with the arrival of the Oculus Rift, which people have been banging on about forever and is finally available to pre-order for £500. More expensive than a trip to the IMAX, then, and far more impressive too: experiences include climbing Mount Kilimanjaro while sitting on your sofa in your slippers, flipping upside down on a rollercoaster, and strutting down the catwalk at Russian fashion week. The tecchies couldn’t stop talking about Infinadeck, either, an omnidirectional treadmill that when paired with a VR headset allows you to walk or run around like a maniac while exploring imaginary and immersive new worlds.
