    I think this is one of the biggest problems with VR gaming. In theory, swinging around like Spider-Man in VR sounds awesome. But in practice, it’s just nauseating. You really do need to be able to see the screen with a definite border to combat motion sickness. At least I do, not sure about everyone else.

        It sounds lame, but the only VR game that I really enjoy is Real VR Fishing. Mostly because it’s about as calm as it gets. No movement what so ever, but it still benefits from being immersive.

        Oooof yeah that’s exactly the type of game I was thinking of. Looks fun in theory but I’d puke in a minute.

      I really wanted to like 3d movies but I could never get over the headache. I really wanted to like VR gaming but I could never get over the nausea.

      3D entertainment was a childhood dream so I’m really sad to see that my body can’t handle it.

        That’s a bummer. I’ve actually watched 3d movies on my VR headset and it’s pretty cool, if you can handle it.
