Lack of decent content.

without which these are ****ing expensive toys.

It's fascinating watching the brightest and best of this generation make exactly the same mistakes as their parents or grandparents.

Without decent, attractive content - games don't really count - there's very little appeal in spunking a lot of money on this gear.

Last year, in Birmingham. a "VR Lounge" opened up ("Link Steet, for those that know) . I was collared by a puppy hipster all enthused with the possibilities of VR. I was happy to spend a few quid, so I asked ..

- flight simulator ?

- virtual tour of inside the Great Pyramid ?

No to both. Just retreads of video games that frankly would have been blocky in the 80s.

That shop has gone, by the way.
