Lady Drops Grenade In A Virtual Reality Game, Sprints Away In Real Life, May Require A New Realer Neck
WHOOPS! Hey, remember that time (insert any number here) years ago when people would say virtual reality would be the next biggest thing and every household would have a VR system? Yeah, well, that hasn’t quite happened yet. Why? I’m not exactly sure. But thanks to people like this lovely lady who can’t get through the opening menu without shattering their spine, it doesn’t bode well for VR. I mean, I’m not here to throw stones at glass blouses. I can’t even handle my own reality, let alone a separate virtual dimension. But still, the idea remains awesome that we now have the option for actual, legitimate virtual reality is amazing – ESPECIALLY in the horror genre.
YES. I’m not gonna rag on anyone for losing their shit while playing this. Replace the flesh eating Nun in the room from hell with a harmless centipede scurrying across my well lit bathroom wall and you’ll still get the same reaction. But as a horror game junkie (Silent Hill 1 & 2, Resident Evil IV, Dead Space and The Last Of Us are still bingo-bango-bongo-tattys on my list) I am PUMPED this can get so realistic that’ll physically make you ill. I don’t know whether it’ll make it move or have it cower back inside like a frightened turtle, but at least the reaction will be authentic. I have no shame going on record to beg someone local to let me play their VR system for a couple hours or until eviction. Don’t want it. Need it. It all may be fake but the shit in my pants is as real as it gets.
Till then, enjoy the countless others who can’t handle their shit in an alternate reality.
