Welcome to the next era of gaming: Virtual Reality! This is a big week for gamers, particularly on the PC end of things. Granted, there are a couple of big-budget titles launching for consoles this week, as both the PS4 and the Xbox One have big exclusives releasing (MLB 16: The Show and Quantum Break). However, all eyes are on the PC world with both of the major VR headsets launching into the hands of consumers.

The hoopla all begins today as the Oculus Rift is officially released. The first consumer unit was hand delivered this weekend by Oculus founder Palmer Luckey. Not to be outdone, Valve and HTC will deliver their VR setup, the Vive, at the end of the week, setting off what will certainly be a major rivalry between the two products.
