Virtual reality is seeping into our everyday lives, evidenced in various industries from education and medicine to real estate and gaming. Gadgets featuring VR technology are now a lot cheaper. This is manifested in current VR headsets. They’re novel and cool, for sure, but is it time you get one?

The experience is definitely amazing. With a VR headset, you can look around and see yourself in a 360-degree, often-interactive world simulating the real one. There’s a great sense of being in the game, especially as you use hand-motion controls to duck, lean, and move forward and back.
Popular VR headsets like Daydream, HTC Vive, Gear VR, and the Oculus Rift now have a good number of supported VR titles you can play. The great thing about these is that the price is going down, with standalone VR headsets that don’t have to connect to PCs seen to be priced for just $200 when they roll out.
Right now, VR headsets are cool and fun gadgets good for some games. But they are still just toys with not-so-great graphics. VR tech has yet to give you those 1080DP or 4K resolutions, making the experience a little less real, visually speaking. Still, critiquing VR tech seems pointless given its imminent prevalence and potential to be the next driving force for truly immersive gaming.
