My main problem is that I'm not a fan of strapping a helmet on my head to play a game. Like 3D TVs, the idea of a wearable peripheral annoys me, especially if I have a group of people over and the only way to enjoy the experience is to have the device.
I think there are definite uses for VR, but like the Kinect, I wouldn't be surprised if those uses are better for stuff outside of gaming.
Author of science fiction and other genres, I write under the pen name Desmond Shepherd. The second season of my series The Permanent Man premieres on November 11, 2014. Pre-order the season premiere The Walls Have Ears on Amazon today!
