We've had promises of virtual reality for years. This comes from this article:
The concept of virtual reality is that through wearing some special devices (goggles / glasses) technology can 'trick' the person into thinking they are in a different world. We might think of Avatar, or the Matrix when we think of virtual reality. There was a (poor) virtual world in Second Life.
For gamers, virtual reality is a long hoped for concept. Playing games where your character runs, jumps, etc - and living in a game where YOU run and jump are two different things.
This article highlights some recent advances by a company called Oculus Rift make virtual reality more of a 'reality' as the graphics, motions are coming closer to human movements.
But, not to be outdone, Sony is also moving farther into the VR world. For game players, this can really be a 'game changer'!!!!
