That is cool, I'd love to have virtual reality gaming where I'm completley immersed in the video game world.

When i see this kind of stuff, i'm kind of scared of what we're going to end up living like. Everyone walking around with lasers shining in their eyes, people depending more and more on technology....if we have a massive EMP surge right now and short circuit everything in north america, we're so screwed its not even funny, and with this, we're just pushing it to a point where we'd be incapable of living without it.

...scary stuff

I would love to be immersed in a game, especially a Samurai or a Ninja game preferrably with a life bar so I dont VIRTUALLY die in one hit... LOL

Da Duh, Camfubot you make no sense. Am I the only one who thinks that he makes no sense?

Anyway, the future it's comin on it's comin on it's comin on...

err... Random song lyrics. Anyway, CS in VR would blow my mind, as with anything do you think there would be certain people who would be incredible at VR games because they have incredible reflexes, would this bring out the best in people because the game would seem so much more real? Hmm...

all i know is that VR would make police/SWAT/Army/Fireman, etc. job training a lot more efficient.


so to answer your question moogle, yes...i think poeple with better reflexes and stuff will do better at CS or FPS games in general using VR...
