The visuals even on the Oculous 2 are pretty damn good, 1832 x 1920 per 
eye.  The combined 3d feels like it's better due to the 3d quality too.

Well that's compared to my 1080p monitor though.  I don't have a 4k 
display so I can't compare, but having seen 4k displays in stores they 
don't really look significantly better to me than 1080p at a reasonable 
viewing distances.

Now the actual quality of the graphics in the games is another matter. 
Most of the better games I've played have fairly simple graphics looking 
like they're from 20 years ago.  The Star Wars one was pretty good as I 
remember, but I could be wrong as it's been a couple years (but that one 
triggered my vertigo pretty hard, I did manage to eventually grit my way 
through the first installment.)
