Good action but not quite La Femme Nikita
on December 6, 2019
Posted by: SpenceJT
Verified Purchase:Yes
This comes off as yet another Luc Besson action movie - insert protagonist - cut & paste action choreography.
This doesn't mean that it isn't fun, its just that it has become Luc Besson's 'go-to' and it is getting somewhat stale.
Details are crisp and clear with good black levels and vibrant color. Audio is active in all channels, but could be a bit more encompasing.

X-MEN DARK PHOENIX - Blu-ray - After returning from outer space, Jean Grey finds herself at odds with fellow members of the X-Men. The rift occurs because a cosmic blast turns Jean into a godlike being, and her newfound powers are the complete opposite of benign. The diabolical force inside her gradually corrupts her kind soul and understanding. With Jean targeting the friendly mutants she loves most, the X-Men must take a stand. They have to stop Jean from causing further destruction, or Jean will be used by otherworldly entities. These aliens are adamant about gaining control over the entire world. 20th CENTURY FOX Run Time 115 minutes

It's X-Men, but it's not 3D so... sadness

The images are fine, the effects are fine, but sadly this story has already been told, and it was told better in X-Men United, which was a better movie than this, and still a low point in the original trilogy.

TOTALLY UNTETHERED IS HERE and it is...

ZING!
I am a tech enthusiast, who has owned and played with the Samsung Galaxy phone based Gear VR since its launch a few years ago.
It was "okay", but limited in quality and performance. Earlier phones would often get overheated, with the audio and video cutting out of stuttering. Playing within VR on a phone was occasionally interrupted by email notifications and calls, it only supported a single controller, and the battery would run down quickly. It tied up my phone when others wanted to play ...it just wasn't an optimal experience.
I considered upgrading to a standalone Oculus Go, but it still only supported a single controller, which really limited game options such as Beat Saber, etc.
Then came Oculus Quest, I bought one for the family, and ...WOW!
I can barely contain my enthusiasm!
First, let's address the elephant in the room. It's not cheap. Cheap will get you a cardboard box, or the slightly better plastic phone-based VR headset (the best of these is Gear VR).
This is immersive with six degrees of motion. The included (dual) touch controllers provide ample options to navigate the virtual environments and manipulate objects.
The sound is projected near your ears, and sounds will move as you move, providing the user turn an ever more increased encompassing experience. ...there are standard 3.5mm headphone jacks on either side of the HMD for those who seek auditory privacy over realism.
I like that you can set up a virtual boundary in your VR space, so as to not damage your surroundings or injury yourself. You set up a perimeter, and it warns you with a virtual wall/grid when you touch upon the limit of your safe area.
I was originally considering the purchase of a floor-standing heavy-bag, to workout and fight off anxiety, but the up buying the 128GB Oculus Quest in the hope that it would serve as a tool, to help envelope and engage the senses of family members suffering from high bouts of anxiety, as well as seasonal depression. I am pleased to state that once the Oculus Quest is donned, and the virtual world is entered, runaway thoughts from the outside are pushed away for awhile. Games which engage, sight, sound and moment help to redirect anxious thoughts, forcing them to focus on the experience.
Yes it is expensive, but it is SO worth it. It is far more versatile than a simple floor-standing heavy-bag (yes there are boxing games, and so much more), it also takes up far less space and is far more portable than a heavy bag. ;-)
I highly recommend that those interested, seek out a location with a demo unit and experience it for yourself.

Take the excitement of surround lighting to the next level with the Philips Hue Play gradient lightstrip. This LED strip flawlessly blends multiple colors of light at the same time, mimicking the content on the entire screen for an immersive, full-room entertainment experience unlike any other. Hue Bridge and Hue Play HDMI Sync Box required, not included.
 

Planning to upgrade a 75 inch TV to either a 90 or 100 inch projection screen. Leaning toward the 90 inches as I know that the 75 inch lightstrip is rated to be used on 85 inch displays. Any success with photos?

Do you always have to be connected to Wi-Fi or can it download games to play from storage? Like when you are traveling with no access to Wi-Fi.

WiFi is only required to download and install applications, or when in multiplayer or social media, or streaming media applications which require a connect

Can you upload 2d and 3d videos from your computer onto the quest in a folder? Can you change viewing options and angles for playback?

Yes you can load videos for playback in virtual theaters. I am unsure about changing angles. I doubt it.

Hey I’m looking at buying a quest but is it worth getting 128 or 64. I’m looking to buy to play with my friend in Texas. So is it possible to play with someone across the country. Thanks for answering.

Memory is not expandable. That said, the apps are not huge, but if you intend to download movies, or (like me) horde a large library of installed apps, it would be advised to spring an extra $100 for double the storage.

Doubling the storage will also give a higher resale value, should a time come in the future where you would consider selling it and upgrading.

When your in a game, do one of the controllers move off into the distance by itself?

No. If you are experiencing this, your headset is losing tracking of your touch controller.

This can be due to ambient lighting overpowering the sensors of the head unit making it difficult for it to see and track the IR emitters from the controllers.

It could also be batteries in the controllers getting weak.

CAN A 6 YEAR OLD FIT IN THE HEAD GEAR ??

This depends on the size of your six year old.

The Oculus Quest is not recommended for children under the age of 13. Add to this, that most six year olds do not understand the concept of value, so any use should be closely supervised so as not to damage a $400+ device.

...also something to be considered is the developing mind of a child, and if it should be exposed to virtual reality experiences at such a young age.

Not judging. Just pointing out things to consider. The decision is yours.

I want to use Quest for my VR Fine Art Painting project. Do I need any additional hardware or software to paint, export and import my projects? Can I use Google Tilt Brush app in 64 GB Quest device? Can I directly upload my artwork to Google Drive/FB.com?

Check out Tilt Brush. It includes a variety of brushes, textures, and allows you to work in a 3 dimensional space, resizing, and moving the art around, zooming in to add detail, rotating it to add color and texture. It is very cool, and there are many videos on YouTube.
