However I have a big feeling it will cause some serious eye-styrene...
Yeah, I've always wondered that about VR or anything that projects an image right in front of your eyes - Won't focusing on something like that for ages give you really bad eye strain after prolonged use?

Also I once played a 3D shooter on a projector screen which was close enough to fill my vision, and I got motion sickness. I wonder if you can get motion sickness from VR, or does the field of vision counter-act that? Maybe I should try it one day to find out.

Anyway, cool-looking tech if it gets off the ground. It being compatible with one or two currently popular games will probably help it a bit, but that goes without saying.
