This is the coolest thing I have ever seen in my life. Makes me hungry for skittles, and braiiiiins.[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNu4CluFOcw"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cNu4CluFOcw[/ame]
 
Wow, something by nVidia that actually makes me go "Cool" rather than "DOWN WITH THIS HORRIBLE COMPANY THAT GETS BLIND PRAISE AND STILL OWES ME 6,000 DOLLARS WORTH OF SHODDY BROKEN EQUIPMENT AND A TECHNICAL SUPPORT MEMBER WHO REPLACED MY VIDEO CARD WITH A BOX OF HAIR AND THEN GOT PROMOTED AS THE MANAGER SAT LAUGHING IN THE BACKGROUND WHEN I SENT MY ANGRY CALL, WHICH ENDED UP COSTING ME ANOTHER PHONE BILL.

Besides the point.. that actually does look like a neat way of playing a game.
 
That looks pretty cool but what if you run out of skittles, I have to replenish on skittles?? I mean I know I can save the skittles but it's not that easy for me. Looks really fun but 30fps? Ouch, a hand held gaming experience by Nvidia... I don't know :/

Well, it's really only for testing purposes. Nvidia is probably the only company that has the technology ready (not wanting to start a debate here, what I'm saying is that Nvidia made the technology). And I don't think the device is ever going retail for a mainstream market. Not yet at least.

30 FPS is fine, remember, there's a lot to process.
 
i remember this russion guy talking about augmented reality a few years ago. and had this demo of it that looked just like this. man i bet that guy has made millions already.
 
That looks quite interesting, and is probably immersive in an awkward sort of way.
