As promised, Road to VR’s first DK2 has arrived and, despite my strong urge to rip open the carton like a maniac, I managed restraint long enough to film this short (and somewhat rushed) unboxing video. Apologies for some out of focus moments here – I’ve added annotations to the video where I missed info or blatently forgot what I was talking about.

There’s already a more detailed photo based unboxing to come which will also include my first impressions on the DK2. Early preview: it doesn’t suck! ;)

Don’t forget to let us know what you’d like to see us try in the DK2 as we embark on a weekend news blow-out for the next generation Oculus Rift.

Based in the UK, Paul has been immersed in interactive entertainment for the best part of 27 years and has followed advances in gaming with a passionate fervour. His obsession with graphical fidelity over the years has had him branded a ‘graphics whore’ (which he views as the highest compliment) more than once and he holds a particular candle for the dream of the ultimate immersive gaming experience. Having followed and been disappointed by the original VR explosion of the 90s, he then founded RiftVR.com to follow the new and exciting prospect of the rebirth of VR in products like the Oculus Rift. Paul joined forces with Ben to help build the new Road to VR in preparation for what he sees as VR’s coming of age over the next few years.
