Live for Speed has quite a cult following behind it, and the latest patch added support for the Oculus Rift. GamerMuscle decided to take a look at how the Rift performs in the title, and has released a couple videos for us to enjoy.

To begin, he gives his first impressions on how the DK2 unit fares in the game, and judging from his reactions, it’s quite positive! He looks around in the LX4 (LFS’ version of a Caterham) and proceeds to drive around Blackwood. Next up, he enters an online race with the Formula BMW.

I find it very interesting how the HUD doesn’t move around with your view, which gives you a holodeck-esque perspective, which may help give you a grounding perspective.
What are your thoughts on the Oculus Rift in racing sims? Let us know!
This is so funny seeing is reaction lol and looking at what he does in the small screen haha. but it looks really cool.
He reminded me of Stevie Wonder in the first video lol. Nothing against Stevie but it was funny lol
I cant wait for the rift to come out should be amazing in Sim racing as we can already see
I have my DK2 on order, and can’t wait to race with it – iRacing and Assetto Corsa for me…..
