Is anyone else planning on picking this up?

Looks pretty damn awesome counting SC will never be released.

Yeah this game is looking awesome, though I wanna play Star Citizen as well. I think Elite will certainly come out first in any case, the alpha footage of the starmap made me drool.

Talk about a sick set up here. 3 panels, custom touch displays, motion sensors.. :drool:

My roommate already purchased it, I am still up on the fence about it.

I won't be using a joystick/throttle and am still not sure how mouse and keyboard do. People use it, and say it's not bad at all, others always swear by their throttle sticks.

Regardless, if you are a space fan I suggest getting it, even since Star Citizen won't be out for another year, this should be plenty to hold those over.

Plus Voiceattack is sick with it, along with the TrackIR if you are even more hardcore sim man

This is the sort of game oculus rift is perfect for. Unless you have the money to build a custom motorized cockpit with 4k OLED displays, that would be nice too.

Oculus Rift is going to be a few hundred dollars too you know.

A few hundred dollars for 4k OLED would be magical.

I'm just saying, when it comes down to two completely optional peripherals, one *only* costing a few hundred dollars isn't an advantage.

Sure it is when the other costs like $10,000.
