What Ever Happened to Virtual Reality?

Posted by timothy on from the it-stayed-similar dept.

bergeron76 writes "It seems like it's been ages since I heard of any advances in "Virtual Reality" technology. Was Virtual Reality just hype? Are there any new or existing projects that have made any significant inroads (aside from the first-person shooter games)? Is total virtual immersion a worthless persuit / dead industry? If not, what are the bottlenecks that are delaying it?"

    There should be a way to vote to 'un-mod' something that's been modded a troll when it's not.

    Mod parent up, he has a good point, he simply made you stop and think in order to get it. Obviously, who ever modded him a troll didn't like to think.
