Everyone loves to talk about the Oculus Rift, but are we going to be TERRIBLE at virtual reality? For most of us, the answer is probably yes. The footage of Oculus Rift looks crazy and amazing, and we can't wait. BUT the lack of physical separation between player and game means our minds are unable to distinguish between virtual reality and ACTUAL reality (motion sickness anyone?). These games might also require wholly unique physical and mental skills, meaning games in the future may be completely different from what we're currently playing. Are We Ready? Will we be any good at it? Watch the episode and find out!
