Any of us reading this are old enough to see the progress of video games and the idea of "immersion" happening before our very eyes. We still have faint 8 bit memories and know this is all an illusion. I really wonder what it's going to be like for people born in the next few years - entering a world where the games are as real as reality. It gives "Second Life" a whole new meaning.

This is very interesting. I never thought about it. Someone who grows up seeing this kind of realism in videos and pictures alongside videos and pictures of real places, and just can't see any difference. Wow...

  As a child I thought that everything in the past was black and white 10 years time: "When my daddy was small like me everything was made of pixels"

My kids can't quite believe it when I tell them that we didn't have computers when I was a child. No internet. 3 TV channels, then 4 when I got a little older. I'm sort of looking forward to retirement when I can sit in a chair, strap on a VR headset and go spearfishing in Hawaii with my brother. Or swim through space and visit Jupiter, or go on WoW raids.
