VR has failed (Gaming)

I'm not sure the high price is what might kill Oculus. It's a new gadget, they're always expensive at first. Certain early adopters will buy it, and later on the stuff gets cheaper. What I think would be more likely to kill it is a lack of compelling content - if there's nothing interesting to use it for, it won't sell at any price.

Sort of on topic and sort of not: I've seen several movies in 3D now, and there has been only one where I didn't think that the 3D made things noticeably worse. Oddly, it was Jurassic Park. Which, of the 3D films I've seen, is the only one that wasn't made for 3D in the first place. I can accept that theoretically 3D can be used to great effect, but mostly it just seems to be used to make otherwise-OK 2D movies hard to see.
