I pretty much gave up games too. Especially console games. Especially shooters. I'd still like to try this out with some more chill indie/puzzle games though (i.e. English Country Tune)
It's really cool. It might also have the potential to create 180-270-degrees peripheral vision judging by the video, which is something that would fundamentally change first-person games.
Now replace your entire wall with an OLED 8K display.
One of the things I've been playing around with have been the Phillip's "Hue" lights (see the Apple store) which you can control via the Zigbee light protocol. Taking the colors from the screen and doing accent lighting of similar shades. Its kind of amazing how that makes your screen seem bigger.
In form maybe but not function, then again unless we knew how the communicator worked in the series it's hard to say. Although I can barley get two bars inside at work let alone call someone in orbit.
By the way: Two of the games shown are Red Eclipse and Supertuxkart, both open source and - of course - run on linux. While SuperTuxKart is not that exciting, Red Eclipse is quite fun.
The gaming potential of this is obviously awesome; however, I think this could revolutionize the home good ecommerce world. A user could build an entire room with a couple of clicks.
It's an incredibly 'simple' concept, and yet the perfect next step in immersive display.
