It’s FINALLY HERE! VR Omni-Directional Treadmill… and it’s INSANE!
Hello! Today I have my early review of the KatWalk C, the first and only CONSUMER level and priced VR omni-directional treadmill.. well actually its much more like a “slidemill”. It took a bit of getting used to but using this slidemill has completely changed the way I look at VR, VR gaming, and VR social cases. It really is probably my favorite peripheral hardware I have ever used (besides maybe full body trackers I suppose). So far I’ve been loving it and I hope you enjoy my review! Of course there are negatives which I talk about, especially the price at $1400, but still.. it’s a ton of fun.
