Boring.
I can't understand all the fuss about VR. We've already seen VR attempts in 90s, they failed.
Nothing has vastly changed since then.
The price, lack of content (ok, there will be racing simulators, flying simulators, swimming simulators... ok, even if there will be a simulator for every first person action - it is still nothing), hardware requirements, "stuck with only 1 kind of display forever" - why are everyone so ecstatic about VR?
3D was also shoved down our throats like a new cure for cancer... and what became of it?
True, VR will take some niche market, but it has no real value entertainment wise (I am not talking on medical or other real life implementations).
In my view - the future is with Augmented Reality.

I for one am really looking forward to this. PC gaming for me has become incredibly stale of late as such I mainly play games from the 90's and early 00's through emulation - much more fun.
If they can do it right and sort of make it feel like you're actually there (no motion lag etc.) I think it will be great. Lot's of possibilities. I just hope it will work for people who wear glasses like me, my up close seeing is perfect but everything gets blurry long distance so maybe I can get away without needing my glasses for it? 😀

I think is a good decision to delay VR to second half of 2016.
IMHO VR have 3 main problems right now:
- GPU power needs
- Specific VR input interfaces
- An industry standard to set minimum features like resolutions per eye and stable (locked) fps and hz.
The first two problems can't be solved without enough GPU power level (980ti?) and new user interfaces available.
The third one i guess it will not be set until some part loose the first batlle of this market war.

VR is the future and the natural evolution. It has been lurking out of the water sometimes trying to breath for quite some time and now seems a good time to start colonizing the earth. We reached a point where graphics have evolved so much they don´t have the impact on the gaming experince it used to have: VR on the other hand has quite the potential. It´s a revolution for me.

One of the latest plasma produced, not the best one but it was a great deal 800 euros for an active 3D Plasma:
S/S, T/B, C/B and F/S (Frame Sequential 3D Format).

Ok, everyone, who is offended by my non-believer in VR words, please share your thoughts in my new post - right here.
I know, I've written quite a lot, but please take your time.
Also I wish to say, that I posted that thread not with the purpose of offending anyone else, but to get to the bottom of VR hype.

Forget about gaming for now........but think about watching a movie with a 200" screen in front of you 😀
