I'm well aware of how it works and to be honest I like the idea. I do think it's limited however by using a single screen- wraparound or even 3 screens then I think it's an fantastic creation. Plus as your video shows its the head that has to move which isn't natural as your eyes have to stay looking at the screen when I real life the head is stationary and the eyes move unless to look over your shoulder. My point was dont be so dismissive of someone opinion just because it differs. Phantom jusifies his 'gimmick' line by saying he'd rather see more attention to core gameplay and I agree 100%. Yes it would be nice to have all the bells and whistles but after all it's a game. It'll never be akin to the real thing. Just as people spend money buying fantastic wheels and peddles for GT5 I'd rather use the two sets of actual wheels and peddles I have outside- ones attached to a BMW 530 and the other a Golf GTI. The fact I don't have a setup for GT5 does not detract in anyway from my game experience. What I'm saying is that head tracking is gimmicky, nice idea in theory but gimmicky all the same just as a steering wheel and pedals is for GT5. It's not critical to the actual game and no great loss if it's not included.
