I've wondered about this a bit myself. When this VR technology becomes available for wider public consumption, I'd definitely be putting up my hand for a looksee if I can afford it. I think this is critical - how much will it cost the average Joe to enjoy this kind of experience?
The very concept of VR makes me remember a certain film called "the Lawnmower Man".
Anyone watch that back in the day and remember the visual style of representing a VR world? I guess from there "Tron" should get a special mention too.
It makes me shiver with nostalgic ooziness to think of those retro gaming days.
Mind you, RPG's have traditionally had such a strong tug on consciousness for me that they pretty much become VR experiences in themselves. Perhaps that's why Black Isle included the reminder for us all to 'eat' when playing BG2. [img]smile.gif[/img]
