   Sadly, after just 2 minutes of exposure to the video game, Mrs Jones went on a shooting rampage, killing 50 people.

      That, my friend, is a perfect example of satire in one sentence. Kudos.

   Having watched the video it reminds me how much we as gamers take for granted the portals into other worlds and other adventures. We have some amazing looking games and we say things like ‘oh my, look at the poor textures on that barrel, simply terrible’.

   Aww. The best bit is when she asks “and I’m still sitting where I was?”.

      It’s only a shame they weren’t able to play something like Wipeout and really blow her mind.

      That said, I hope there’s a version of Flower gets made for this thing, JUST for proving to parents/grandparents that technology is freakin’ awesome.

         Wipe out was the first thing I thought of when i saw occulus for the first time. Could imagine some absolutely insane zone battles and maps like sky city would be intense.

      I think they were trying to make sure it would stay on her face properly, or just cause it looked hilarious, one of those two.
