all games that are compatible can be viewed here: http://www.roadtovr.com/oculus-rift-games-list/ I would honestly say you probably will get sick of using it from time to time, and you may feel like playing a game on your normal monitor. Like for me I would feel weird if I used it for more than 2 hours. So it may be the new in thing but a real gaming monitor will always be compatible with any game that your pc can run. but not every game will be compatible with drift. A monitor is something that I see as something I can be happy with for 5+ years so you should always buy a decent gaming monitor if you are able to without it affecting anything else.
