Topic: E3 2015 - what are we hoping for?

TBH, bit ha VR headset, all I'd be able to use it for is movies. Anything else and I'd need a bucket 😓😓😓😓😓

This is exactly my thoughts too. VR isn't that much more than a 'portable screen' strapped to your head and for the most part, that's all it will be used for. I know a few games will make use of motion - ie the view on screen moves according to where you look but I bet most use it as an extra screen.

VR is very much an anti-social experience too. At least with AR you can still see and interact with people around you. I still wonder about the impact on health that using VR could have. It maybe OK in small doses - like 30mins-1hour at a time at a demo show, but what about those people that game for hours at a time and daily too? Not just the physical impact on eyes - having screen(s) strapped that close, focusing on them and things that close etc, but the mental impact too. We know that the brain can be 'altered' through 'Perceptual Adaption'. There is also the risk from not being aware of anything around you too. AR gets round all these by having the 'real' world in view.

Maybe that could be a possible retail bundle, haha? A headset, a game and a bucket.

Yup, but just imagine, that moment comes and you can't find the bucket because you've got a headset on!

Haha! That'd be...unfortunate. Maybe they can develop some kind of contraption that will attach the bucket to the headset and fasten in in an appropriate position ? Call it a deluxe model.
