For you gamers out there

So with the bike away and recently built a new rig I thought it's time to show off a little! Here is a little taste of hopefully more, let me know what you think. Only shitty thing is that the light sucks badly in the basement!

Cool. You just need borderless monitors now! Do you think you are better to run this set up (5760x1080?) or a 60+" tv in 1920x360? How far back do you sit?
I use a trackIR but really need a bigger monitor.

Yeah I can't wait for the border-less screens to come out at an affordable price. I would say the larger resolution because on a 60" tv everything is just scaled larger. For example if you watch the video have a look at what you would only see playing with the centre screen and have a look at what you would miss. Yes, the picture gets stretched about half way of each of the side monitors, but when you are playing your vision can't absorb all of the information it sees, and the peripheral vision works wonders there to give you the sense of immersion. You wouldn't get this on just a large TV. Also having the monitors angled helps to give you more immersion.

I sit about 3 feet back, it's just on a desk so nothing too fancy - yet!

How can they use the word "simulator" in that title? Arcade at best!

It may look arcade in the video, but it's not the typical MX arcade style games. everything is based of real physics. Feel free to read up on it at their site. Keep in mind that it's still in development, there's still plenty to pick apart, but the creator is constantly rolling out updates, fixes and improvements. Don't get me wrong here, I'm not trying to sell you on anything, just pointing out that you should look into it more before assuming its only an arcade game from watching one video.
