    That's pretty awesome. The fan that blows in your face is a genius idea :)

    Not just the wind feedback system, they got the "smell" feedback system too! (@2:02)
    Actually, this reminds me of one of the VR system they had in the movie "Lawnmower Man" (@0:30):

    Pretty cool, but surely you can't get away from the fact that you're lying on your stomach (which can't be hugely comfortable).

    Get it into a sky diving wind-tunnel, and then you're talking.

    I wanna see a waterproof housing so I can float in a heated pool tripping out on VR.

    Lol if you could get into a wind tunnel, the oculus would be all you need. I agree however that lying on your stomach would be uncomfortable.

    underwater VR is an untapped market. I have a feeling a lot of people would drown though...
