_____DUDE! I'm in the freakin' MATRIX! I can look up,
look down, look ALL around and... HEY! Where'd my
body go! Ah well, it was a ball of malformed crap anyway.
ANYWAY! I'm wearin' this VR thing over my eyeballs and
am usin' a VIRTUAL desktop to access VIRTUAL REALITY
and type a VIRTUAL message to you dudes and dude-ettes
in CYBERSPACE. Damn, that red pill is TASTY.
_____ACT-U-ALL-Y, us lunatics at the lab got hold of the
DK2 rift. Snagged it cheap for $350 US plus shippin'.
Hadda be "cheap," far as computer stuff goes--hadda
justify it in the budget, too. It's this great big set of
GOGGLES that fit over yer gourd an' over yer orbs o'
sight. Everything the computer sees, YOU see. You
ARE in cyberspace.
____But THIS version has got its downsides. For example,
there's that infamous "screen door" effect that's a LITTLE
bit noticable. Ah well! Old dudes around here grew up with
640x480 freakin' monitors. They're not complainin'.
Young 'uns like Cyn thinks it's sh_t, though. Another thing,
there are almost NO games for this thing. And if ya wanna
make a game compatible, ya gotta go through an hour's
worth of modding, tweaking, preening, and Lord knows what
else. It's a freakin' pain and a half! Oh, and YOU CAN'T SEE
THE KEYBOARD WHEN YOU TYPE! So if yer still huntin' and
peckin' an' didn't learn how to type proper, yer screwed.
_____But hey, it's VIRTUAL REALITY! And as far as a future
technology goes, it's cheap! Hmm, funny... Jump stilts--another
preview of future tech--costs the same. I'm lookin' into the
future, man! And it's like somethin' outta the movies. Maybe I
oughtta peek out every so often to make sure the dudes from
BLADE RUNNER don't get me. Couldn't see 'em comin'. (By
the way, how'd you forum dudes get the RE Modding Forum
sign to appear in 3D?)
