Looking forward to VR headsets, Omni directional treadmill and first person shooters personally if they can do it right.

From a CAR game perspective this looks interesting.

A lap of Zolder using the same kit, track looks pretty accurate.

If it works it going to change everthing.

I have heard of directors filming movies/TV for VR .... where does that leave cinemas ?

Was playing Live for Speed on the Rift 2 last night, proper steering wheels, pedals and fan blowing in my face as i was in a Caterham - absolutely phenomenal! Camera monitoring all my movement so if i was leaning back, moving my legs etc, it was all being show in the car with me!

If this is just the beginning for gaming, then another couple of years it's going to be epic!

Is the gameplay enhanced by the VR headset , are laptimes improved in anyway ?
