Remember... the goggles, the gloves, the platform? The first time I saw a VR demo at my local mall, I thought, "This is it. This is how we'll be gaming from now on." I figured it would take a little while for the tech to become cheaper, smaller and more manageable, but I had no doubt about the eventual results.   Well, 10-15 years later, and some VR suits are being used by science, medicine, and moviemaking, but not consumer games. What happened? Did the tech not work? Or did we all just prove to be too lazy to physically move around instead of sitting on the couch twiddling our thumbs? Would you play this way if it was available? Pros? Cons? Carl</blockquote>
