people will come back--like with all the gimmicks that came before.. people will get bored of it after a few years (maybe sooner)

when it's $40-$60 for a VR headset then i'll get it to try it. but until then.. i'm ok staying on the sideline

learned my lesson with the playstation move.. so will not ride the hype train this time around..

We already have HTC Vive setups in a couple rooms. Ya have to make sure there's enough space to walk around and even jump because the tracking devices could cover a good size area - and don't trip on the wires because ya can't see 'em, especially when ya keep twirling around and around and next thing ya know you're wrapped in wires. Laughing

It really is like being inside the Star Trek holodeck. Ya can be walking on the deck of the sunken Titanic in the deeps with only a flashlight, watching the giant whales pass by, touching the millions of brightly glowing jellyfish of various colors and sizes, and suddenly looking around why the school of fish around you are running away scared.

Or if you're on a flying plane looking down, ya better not be afraid of heights and start puking. And then ya jump off the edge. Laughing

Or similar to Lord of the Rings protecting the castle walls against the horde while avoiding the barrage from catapults, then using your 2 hands determining how much to draw your bow to control the distance, aim the flaming arrow into the air, and release.

(Need a really powerful computer though to get those graphics settings that high yet so smooth.)
