VR blew me away the first time that I indulged. It is certainly going to change the way we play games...and I completely agree on your assessment of the X-Wing experience. For their first real kick at it it sure impressed me. Can't wait for the next round of games and upgrades to hit.
I can't wait to see where they take it next. Personally, more manual manipulation of the cockpit would be great. Also a very exciting future for flight sims, I think.
