        Oculus Announces 'Rift S' and 'Quest' VR Headsets Releasing May 21 at $400 Each
        by Shawn Zipay

In comparison to the also just announced $1,000 Valve Index, these two Oculus headsets start at $400 (or $399 if you want to be specific), and that's the price for the full package on both of these.

        A major advantage with these two headsets, when compared to the Index, is the fact that they utilize inside-out tracking. That means they make use of headset mounted cameras and sensors...

        Michael Abrash, the man that was largely responsible for Valve's push into the realm of virtual reality, has left Valve and has now joined up at Oculus.

        Abrash himself explains, through the Oculus blog, his reasons for joining with Oculus.
