The GDC tradition continues! Here are 12 reactions and impressions from VR newbies and veterans about their Oculus Rift DK2 experience.

Note: If you are at work or with children, there is some unsavory language at the very end of the video (after 9:40).

Oculus surprised the VR community when they not only announced pre-orders for the Rift DK2 at GDC, but they had 16 DK2s ready to go at their booth on the show floor for the public to try. Lines were consistently long throughout the show, with expo attendees running to either Oculus or Sony as the doors opened, but eager gamers were willing to wait to experience what may currently be the best consumer VR tech in the world.

The Oculus Rift DK2 is now available for pre-order for $350 directly from Oculus. The unit is expected to ship in July.
