I think Virtual Reality is the holy grail of gaming. Whether or not it is the next big thing remains to be seen, not because of whether or not the idea is good, but because of how well the tech is implemented.

VR is the only way I can think of that increases immersion to the kind of level we gamers always imagine the future to behold.

I remember this question when it was asked in the early 1990's, granted the tech wasn't where it's at now, but I don't think the majority of people want goggles or glasses as an all the time thing.

I wouldn't mind trying it now and again, but I don't want to be encumbered every time I game.

No. Actual new games and not a shooter-fest. Is the next big thing. It's called gaming.
