Somehow, I don't think my parents/boss would accept my excuse of "it was just a pop up" anymore if I wore this.

lol. gaming headset. they have truly lost it

virtual reality
Lame. Everyone keeps trying and everyone keeps failing.

I don't see it ever actually happening successfully. I don't think we are close enough really. And even when it is perfected it'll cost a shit load of money.

Tommorrow's Headlines:

Gabe Newell, a "Microsoft Millionaire" and owner of the billion dollar company, Valve, was found dead today on his toilet. The Corner's autopsy revealed that cocaine overdose was the cause of death.

Wow, seriously, why is that a headset? I always thought headsets were headphones with mics.

Eeeh, whatever. I'm not one of the folks looking forward to VR things.

Sounds like a pointless money sink.

This story is an old 1st April gag, right?

Seriously though, beta testing for the FIFA 14 Augmented Reality version is already underway. Imagine you and your mates, in multiplayer career mode, playing in a packed San Siro, alongside Cristiano Ronaldo, Lionel Messi and Lee Cattermole. Coming soon, to a park near you... Headset calibration still needs a bit of work though...

Hopefully by 2014, Origin will have long since died a death, and this gem will be available on Steam.

I'd be afraid what something like that would do to my eyes... it would require my eyes to be focused extremely close which is hard, painful, and damaging over time =/

I smell a big FAIL.

more like a virtual device

.hack?

All of this...for a headset?
