Star Wars new premium VR experience pull out all the stops – and makes home VR look silly

I'll let my brother know, he's a Star Wars nut... although he probably has all the details already. I bought him pancake moulds for his birthday & this is his May 4th Facebook post.

I went with him to the Star Was exhibition in Westminster some time ago.... & asked if this was Starfleet Academy as we went into the Jedi training class and nearly started a riot. 

Star Wars new premium VR experience pull out all the stops – and makes home VR look silly

• The Void experience began with a VR Home Unit (the Rift DK2):

• Here is what people are forced to wear for this SW experience, "This is coupled with the fact that you wear the computer powering the experience in a laser-quest like breastplate." No one in that outfit should ever accuse someone of "looking silly."
• The article poses this question, "The return of the arcade?"
  This is a clear indication that arcades are currently dead and trying to make a return. It may happen one day, but those involved may want to be a bit more humble. Forgetting their roots (Home VR with the Rift Demo Kit) and needlessly ridiculing the masses is only going to invite the type of karma that will make "the return of the arcade" that much more difficult.
