Uh, pretty sure the popularly known definition of VR is basically a helmet you put over your head that transposes you into a different reality. That's a concept that's been around and hyped since the 1980s at least. 

I don't think anyone's dumb enough to be expecting the holodeck from Star Trek. 

The Playstation VR/Occulus Rift/etc. are basically the realization of ideas that even Sega and Nintendo were promising from the early 1990s. 

You seem to hold a lot faith in some people's intelligence. I kind of wish I still had that naivety towards that thought.

If you believe holodeck technology is possible today (or even in the next 50 years) I have a million dollar warp drive engine to sell you too. And a pill that will let you live forever.
