Virtual Reality article.

An article for you Oliver :
Virtual
Reality was once heralded as the future of gaming - so what went
wrong.

I has the chance to try these stuff at the Trocadero in London... long time ago. But it wasn't really impressive... too much lag, so not immersive enough for me

I would be curious to see what could be done nowadays regarding VR

I used to beta test their games every so often when I was in my teens. They used to pay me to travel up to Leicester for a few days a month to play those Virtuality games for pretty much the whole day. Dactyl Nightmare was the main one.

Heh, yeah - about an inch on my waist! As it was an industrial estate, the nearest place to get food was a burger van parked around the corner - breakfast and lunch mainly consisted of sausage, egg and bacon butties.

Unfortunately, no freebies or machines after they folded

A lot of stuff was skipped which was a shame but you do get the odd one popping up now and again on eBay.
