En Guarde! Couch Knights and the Oculus Rift at PAX East

While there were a lot of cool things demoed at PAX East 2014, the most exciting part of my experience there was getting to try the latest version of the Oculus Rift. The Oculus Rift, for the unaware, is a head-mounted virtual reality display. VR headsets have been forgotten about or made fun of since the mid-90s (rightfully), but the Rift shows that technology can now do the concept justice.
