Just wondering if any of you other old hat's have a VR headset?

Yep, been running a HP Reverb G2 for a while, the G1 before it and a Lenovo Explorer before that.

what do you use them for?

fancied one, my nephew and brother both have vr setups.... but seams like it's one of those things you mess about when you get and then never touch again?

Mostly for racing games with a wheel and pedals. Did some flying games and star wars squadrons with a HOTAS as well. Used to do some beat sabre and other games that were not seated but its not easy to find the time and/or space to do it.
