A gyro screen?
Its not VR. VR is what you see in the holodeck of startreck. A virtual reality you can interact with. Not a little screen to peek into another world.
"Virtual Reality (VR), which can be referred to as immersive multimedia or computer-simulated life, replicates an environment that simulates physical presence in places in the real world or imagined worlds and lets the user interact in that world. Virtual reality artificially creates sensory experiences, which can include sight, hearing, touch, smell, and taste."
I'm not downplaying anything. They are trying to sell a lie and they know it. They are just that desperate to sell it and get the return from the investment. This will be as big as the Move/kinect if not less.

It seems a little silly to use wiki's definition of VR to discredit stuff like Morpheus and Oculus when that same article acknowledges HMDs as a type of VR. You can argue it's not 'true' VR, but the concept itself has quite a lot of wiggle room.
Regardless to the definitions from places like wiki and Oxford though, i personally think the biggest validator of these devices being considered a type of VR is that such devices have been referred to as such in science fiction for decades. That's not selling a lie, that's selling a well established idea.

The definitions are all similar. Who cares where its from. What matters is what they say. Wiki was just the easiest to copy paste.
Tell me, if this is VR, why isnt the game on your TV VR? The only difference is the proximity of the screen.

In VR you do not see a screen its a totally.different experience.
