But there were tons of demos where
they said this was the next big gaming trend. You'd think by now they'd have
something really impressive.


Some video drivers (e.g. nVidia's) come with support for LCD
shutterglasses built-in that works with pretty much any directX game to
give you a stereoscopic (= full-depth ) image. If you've never tried it,
you'll be surprised at how much better most of your 3D games look!

IMO, the problem is, as long as the market share of these
technologically simple things is low, there won't be a push toward
affordable VR headgear either.
