Once they get the resolution up to what we have today on our monitors it’s a go. Combine with something like Track IR and its as good as it can get.

True. I've seen those. VERY expensive. Many have been reported (not specifically this type) as giving the user headaches. Plus i.m.o. i don't think people would want to wear bulky goggles and glasses while playing a game. Would be hard to find my bottle of Guiness or slice of pizza while playin'. I just don't think "goggles" are the way to go for video games. Maybe for custom arcade arena's or certain interactive theatrical movies (which are coming soon).
The idea of a concave screen enveloping a nice comfy chair sounds more appealing. As long as the picture is crisp and sharp, the illusion will succeed. Sort of like your own personal IMAX screen.
