I could eventually see this being great, but not for a while.
But to be honest, isn't the whole gaming experience involved around the controller? With no controller, it won't feel like gaming :/

Hopefully there is footage released soon. Would love to seem some gameplay with this used.

The only negative that wasn't mentioned here, is the fact that it has to be wired with a hdmi cord. There is too much latency when wireless, hopefully there will be a wireless one down the road though.

I think this is the future, however I don't think we are there yet. Nevertheless I like being able to actually see inside the room I am in and doing other stuff too. Wouldn't very social with friends who are physically there with you.

That's simply amazing. Can't really put it into words. I hope it's a fair price on release as I would love to get it.
