I can see reports of people having a lot of seizures with this, or headaches.

It's another gimmick, but for a Gimmick I like it. Unfortunately - +1 for Headaches and seizures .......Really for the FPS is seems to be simulating peripheral vision

I love how everything in the room vibrates when he was shooting. Amazing!

making the "gaming experience" feel bigger and more alive than a little glowing tv in a darkened room.

Immersion.



This would be the opposite of immersion. Instead of focusing on your game now you're looking around your room at all the flashing lights.

Don't PC elitists just stare at rock textures and not pay attention to the game, anyway?

This would be like driving down the road at night with someone flashing their high beams on and off.

Didn't someone make this exact same comment like 2 weeks ago? I think it was reddevil. I'm not sure what this has to do with a PC elitist though.

I'm pretty sure this kind of thing is the future and there's nothing we can do.

Looks ok, but i wanna actually see it used well. Could be interesting to use in stealh games or something. See around the corner from outside ur screen. But still very distracting
