After brainstorming is it clear there is no "ultimate" video game experience, and the idea of total immersion video gaming seems to be the only possible way to get "into" the game. Total immersion video games would:
- Tap into senses, respond accordingly
- Have a sedation effect to disable actual actions, use the subconscious to trigger "dream scenarios"
The idea of total immersion video gaming or simulation is a popular idea in Science Fiction, with certain possibilities for the technology playing a prominent role in the stories of shows such as Red Dwarf and Star Trek.
The visual outputs sketched in the brainstorm above are actually all currently implemented (albeit very expensive and not widely used). Here is the only example of the curved display...
