http://www.vrealities.com/ Have any of you been to vrealities.com? It's straight out of 1995, yet claims to serve a plethora of ultra high-profile clients. Everything they sell looks ridiculously outdated, like this :lol:: http://www.vrealities.com/vrmotionchair.html - Look at that GIF, yes a GIF, seriously WTF? Anyone who pays $4000 for a rocking chair is braindead. So what's the deal with this site? I'm seriously confused. One thing I did find interesting is the X-Gun: http://www.vrealities.com/x-gun.html Seems ridiculously overpriced, though. I wonder how it compares to Jim Blackhall's homebrew Game Gun ($250 preorder): http://www.destructoid.com/awesome-wireless-game-gun-won-t-make-you-better-at-games-146730.phtml That guy is amazing. Those are the only two universal gun devices I've ever seen. Ideally, I'd like to use one with three projectors, with a trackIR and 3rd Space, so maybe I could buy Jim's, without the LCD. I'd really like some thoughts on this, because there is NO information online. |

Looks like this place is for especially interested. I read about one that made a room look like the command bridge of startrek. :P |

I have to agree, that most of that stuff is crap. We can do more with Cameras, and wiimoste, and gyromouses and such |

I've been thinking about this since he posted it and I still can't figure out whether this is spam, a joke/scam site or real. Either way, it shows how important the aesthetics of a site is to its authenticity. |

Thats true and its easy to think this is not a real site from the looks of it. I did a check and they have a whois record since 1999: Record expires on 07-Jul-2010. Record created on 07-Jul-1999. http://whois.domaintools.com/vrealities.com |

Even with unlimited money, there's just no reason to buy from them because everything they sell is outdated. I'm thinking it's a joke site now. Do you have a link to the Star Trek bridgeroom? |
