Ian Higton’s played with some pretty imaginative peripherals during his time searching for the ultimate ways to immerse yourself in VR, but Cybershoes for Oculus Quest are some of the most interesting yet! The Cybershoes Oculus Quest edition allows you to use the power of your own feet to control your VR characters and in this week’s VR Corner, Ian has stepped up and taken the Cybershoes and the Cyquest receiver for a test-drive. Will Ian find shoeing zombies in Arizona Sunshine Quest gameplay to be a walk in the park or does this new peripheral need to step up? Find out in this Cybershoes Quest review as Ian gives you his first impressions of this brand new gadget!

All well and good until the doorbell rings
Titch! great video explaining the kit Ian! looks fun and a good way to burn a few extra calories whilst gaming!
And here I thought that bugsnax vid was the one which really showed us really how far Ian was going to entertain himself these days
Loved the song 6:37 🤣
The thing I like best about these is how dignified I'll look using them when friends or neighbors happen to stop by .
Valve index or hp reverb 2?
"So it seems like big strokes, big stokes are the best rather than short swift strokes, you've gotta go for big long movements." 🤔🤔🤔
These VR zombie games look so, so boring. Fun tech but no one is going to be using them for very long.
Your little feet going under that stool are adorable
Wait wait wait, do y'all wear your shoes inside?
Wait… Ian has legs and feet?!?
Can I just strap 2 laser mice to my feet and get a big mouse mat?
Thank you for putting on big boy pants for the video Ian
After an hour of gaming you become Thor, god of static.
Meh, you can walk by swinging your arms with WMR controllers via the gyros.
I'm sorry… but of all the videos not to wear Jorts… UNACCCEPPPPTABLLLE!
Someone needs to make a roller derby game that uses these shoes. And remake Aggressive Inline from the PSX days as a VR Cybershoes exclusive.
Some Reddit user will remake these with a pair of Heelys and 2 glow sticks and get 160k upvotes…
I suppose for the roller on the shoes they could use a ball instead of a cylinder for omnidirectional movement. Of course it's more complicated than that, but an idea. 😎🍻😎
vr games are so far fromreality
Hmmm, I think I would prefer just joysticks to be honest. Snap, same sofa!!
It’s been so long since I’ve seen a full body shot in these kind of videos I forget people are more than just a head and torso with arms
Amazed he never tried to back up away from the zombies.
The opening pun made me laugh too much
Games like these are awful when sitting down. It just kills any and all immersion, at least that's the case for me. Even if you have very limited space to work with, I still find it better to just stand and move with the controllers.
They missed a trick here. Optical tracking would have enabled strafing & diagonal movement & wouldn't get all clogged up with fibres & other stuff like the mechanical roller. Also, that little cable should have a passthrough plug on one end so you can charge without having to unplug it. Other than that, something like this is bound to be part of the efull VR kit by default in the future.
Best intro ever. 😂
Surely it's a Cyber-Rug? (Also, I was expecting your cat to play with the cyber-shoe that was on the floor…)
My first thought … "this is stupid…"
My final thought is pretty much the same. (also, they could easily have allowed strafing with trackballs instead of rollers) – hardly a mental stretch. And in the end .. they created a 90s era rubber-ball-mouse in sandal shape.
Just ordered Ready Player 2. Looking forward to it. GREAT VIDEO
Cyber Carpet, the future is weird.
Or you could just buy an oculus quest and walk around for real…
One of those things that seems like a great idea. I think once the novelty wears off its gonna be consigned fairly quickly to some dark recess and never see the light of day again.
Lol 😂
Really has a lot of potential for future of vr 🙂
Nice cat. It's hairy and I like it.
I'm new to VR and kept seeing these advertised when searching for quest accessories. I honestly thought it was a scam at first sight lol
