    I don't know if anyone brought this up but it seems like Microsoft doesn't want to bring VR to their consoles at this time .

    Do you guys think there will ever be a day you can exchange video graphic cards out of the console ? Does that make the consoles obsolete ?

    Good. I hope the VR dies soon. Silly nonsense I have no interest in personally.

    Ever had a good (or any) VR experience? We use it at work. I was skeptical as hell about it, and to this day I still hold that people look ridiculous with the headsets strapped to their face - but the technology is impressive and it's actually a pretty cool experience in my opinion. Long as it's something that's an option and not a requirement for a certain game, I'm 100% on board with it.

    I think you both have a point here. The tech is impressive, but alot of the games made from VR have been...pretty awful, making alot of players just see it as a gimmick rather than something that can enhance the experience.
